032. Is the Law written on our hearts?

The gospel of grace frees us from religious systems that create a hyper-awareness of sin while offering conditional acceptance with God through rule-keeping.

• The love of Christ, not religious obligation, is what truly controls and transforms us
• Paul teaches that those in Christ are new creations, with old things passed away and new things come
• Christians are given the ministry of reconciliation, not condemnation
• The law functioned as a tutor to lead people to Christ, after faith came, we are no longer under a tutor
• Old Testament prophecies about God's law being written on hearts refer to Christ himself, not the 613 commandments
• Christ gave two new commandments: believe in Him and love one another as He has loved us
• True grace recognizes we are completely forgiven and made holy through Christ's finished work
• Religion divides grace into "positional" salvation and conditional fellowship, a recipe for legalism
• Freedom in Christ means living from a new heart with His love flowing through us
