DAILY DROP OF WATER

(Eph 2:14) “For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; (15) Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;”  Is the law done away with? Does it have no bearing on the life of the Born Again Child of God?  The law is the revealing of what God sees and right and wrong. Except for the civil law given to Israel, the moral law and the sacrificial law is seen in the New Testament. The moral law is reiterated in the Epistles, except for the Sabbath Day, having been replaced with Sunday, the Lord’s Day. The sacrificial law is replaced with the one sacrifice forever – that of Christ Jesus held constantly before us. The law does not save. We have been freed from its condemnation. Yet, we have been given the Holy Spirit and a new nature to live its precepts.
