The Law of God, being the 10 commandments as found in Exodus 20:3-17 ....has a place in the plan of salvation.
Psalms 19:7 "The law of the LORD [is] perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD [is] sure, making wise the simple".
Question: How does God's Law, plays a part, in the conversion process ?
I think most everyone will agree that the Law of God, the 10 commandments (Exodus 20:3-17)....will not...save anyone, right ?
But, listen to this....
Romans 10:4 "For Christ [is] the end (goal to reach, destination to attain to, purpose to reach for...) of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth".
In other words, the gospel of Jesus Christ is, to bring man, back into keeping the Law of God.....which equals salvation.
Matthew , Mark, Luke and John prove this, very clearly.
Now, before anyone gets too excited, remember this Bible verse....1 John 2:1.....Jesus Christ the righteous...
2:3 "And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
2:4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him".
The point ?
knowing Jesus Christ, and keeping the commandments, go hand in hand.
