JUST WHAT ARE WE SAVED FROM

People say they have been saved from their sins. Just what is it that defines what sin is ?  By the law is the knowledge of sin, I would not have known what sin is except the law said, thou shalt not covet.  Do you see that what Jesus saves us from is the Ten Commandments. Jesus saves us from the old covenant, the Ten Commandments are the old covenant.  People say the Ten Commandments were only for the Jews and that Gentiles are not under the Ten Commandments, this is a lie.  All have sinned. This lie would mean the Gentiles couldn’t sin because their not under the law. There is none righteous no not one.  Most people will admit that keeping the Ten Commandments will not give salvation .  

Scripture says we are bought with a price, we are a purchased possession. This means a price had to be paid to purchase us out of the old covenant and into the new covenant.  That price was paid for by Jesus Christ.  Ignorant people think they need to keep the Ten Commandments when no one can.  They confuse scriptures by trying to mix the old and new covenants together.  The old covenant, the Ten Commandments, is a covenant of death, the Ten Commandments are the ministry of death engraved on stone.  There is no life in the Ten Commandments only death.  The people who say we must keep the Ten Commandments continue in death having no life in them at all.  The very thing that kills them they embrace when they should embrace Jesus Christ.  Law keepers deny what Christ did.  Jesus gave his life to buy us out of a covenant that kills us and provided a new covenant that gives us the hope of life rather than death.  Law keepers are dead in their sins and don’t even know it.  If you are not in Christ then you are still under the Ten Commandments, the schoolmaster, but when GOD draws you to Christ then your no longer condemned to death by the Ten Commandments.  The Ten Commandments commanded us to perform what we are unable to do because we have a defiled spirit, a sinful nature.  Once in Christ we undergo a transformation of nature, we partake of the divine nature that doesn’t need to be commanded to not sin but is sinless because it is our nature to be sinless.  GOD, by HIS spirit in us gives us HIS divine nature of love that is the opposite of our defiled human nature and this causes spiritual warfare in us because we must kill our old self to become the new man in Christ.  This will be a lifetime process that is completed in the day of the Lord Jesus Christ. 

All of you who read this blog I do hope you will be given the eyes to see , to understand, what I have written here.  I can’t give you the understanding, I can’t teach you, GOD must do that.  

The Commandments true Christians keep are the two Jesus gave us, love GOD and neighbor, and GOD works in us to both will and do this. We have no works of our own, salvation is not by our works, we are GODS workmanship and we by our free will choice submit to this.  To be very clear about what we are saved from I write it again.

JESUS CHRIST SAVES US FROM THE TEN COMMANDMENTS, THE OLD COVENANT.
