The Law Stands Flashcards
How long does the moral law stand? Psalms 111:7-9
The works of His hands are verity and justice; All His precepts are sure. They stand fast forever and ever, And are done in truth and uprightness. He has sent redemption to His people; He has commanded His covenant forever: Holy and awesome is His name.
Did Jesus come to abolish the law? NO! Mat 5:17-19
“Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled. Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
How did Paul view the law? Rom 7:12
Therefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good.

The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul; The testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple;
What knowledge does the law provide to a person? Romans 3:20 - 1 John 3:4

Who will not be going to heaven? 1 Cor 6:9-10
Mat 7:21-23
Those who practice lawlessness!
Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.
“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’
Who does the law point us to? Gal 3:24
