Thematic Bible



But their minds were hardened: for until this day the same veil upon the reading of the old covenant. remains not uncovered;for in Christ it is left unemployed. But even to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies upon their heart And whenever it turn to the Lord, the veil is taken away.


Therefore now no condemnation to them in Christ Jesus, walking not according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus freed me from the law of sin and death. For the impossibility of the law, in that it was weak by the flesh, God having sent his own Son in the likeness of the flesh of sin, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: read more.
That the justification of the law be filled up in us, not walking according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

Know ye not brethren, (for I speak to them knowing law,) that law rules over man as much time as he lives? For a married woman is bound by the law to a living husband; and if the husband die, she is left inactive from the law of the husband. Wherefore, the husband living, she shall be called adulteress if she be to another man: but if the man die, she is free from the law; not to be an adulteress, being to another man. read more.
Therefore, my brethren, ye also were dead to the law by the body of Christ; for you not to be to another, but to him raised from the dead, that we bring forth fruit to God. For when we were in the flesh the passions of sins, those by the law, were energetic in our members to bring forth fruit to death. And now we were left inactive from the law, having died in what we were held; so that we serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter. What then shall we say? The law sin? It may not be. But I knew not sin except by the law: for I knew not lust, if the law said not, Thou shalt not eagerly desire. And sin, having taken occasion by the command, wrought in me every lust. For without law sin dead. And I was living without law once: and the command having come, sin came back to life, and I died. And the command was found to me which for life, this for death. For sin having taken occasion by the command, deceived me completely, and by it killed me. Therefore truly the law holy, and the command holy, and just, and good. Was then good death to me? It may not be. But sin, that it might appear sin, by the good working death in me; that sin might be sinful to excess by the command. For we know that the law is spiritual: and I am fleshly, sold under sin. For what I work I know not: for what I would not, this I do; but what I hate, this I do. And if what I would not this I do, I consent to the law that it is good. And now I no more wish it, but sin dwelling in me. For I know that in me dwells no good, (that is, in my flesh:) for to will lies near me; but to work good I find not. For not what good I would, do I; but the evil I would not, this I do. And if what I would not, this I do, I no more work it, but sin dwelling in me. I find therefore a law to me, wishing to do good, that evil lies near me. For I rejoice in the law of God, according to the man within: And I see another law in my members, fighting against the law of my mind, and taking me captive to the law of sin being in my members. I an oppressed man: who shall save me from the body of this death? I return thanks to God by Jesus Christ our Lord. Therefore truly with the mind I serve the law of God; and with the flesh the law of sin.

Knowing that a man is not justified from the works of the law, but through faith of Jesus Christ, and we believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified from the faith of Christ, and not from the works of the law: therefore from the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. And it; seeking to be justified in Christ, we were found also ourselves sinners, is Christ therefore the servant of sin? It may not be. For if what I destroy, these I build again, I unite myself with the transgressor. read more.
For I through the law died to the law, that. I might live to God. I am crucified with Christ: and I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in we: and what I now live in the flesh I live in the faith of the Son of God, having loved me, and given himself for me. I put not away the grace of God for if justice through the law, Christ died in vain.

For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it has been written, Cursed every one who remains not in all written in the book of the law to do them. And that none is justified in the law before God, is manifest: for, The just shall live of faith. And the law is not of faith: but, The man having done them shall live in them. read more.
Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having been a curse for us: for it has been written, Cursed every one hanging upon a tree: That the praise of Abraham might be to the nations in Christ Jesus; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

So also we, when we were children, were subjugated under the world's elements: And when the completion of the time was come, God sent his Son, born of woman, born under the law, That he might redeem them under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons. read more.
And because ye are sons, God sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. So that thou art no more a servant, but a son: and if a son, also an heir of God through Christ. But then truly, not having known God, ye were in a servile condition to them not being gods by nature. And now, having known God, and rather known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and poor elements, to which again ye wish anew to be in a servile condition Ye observe narrowly days, and months, and times, and years. I am afraid of you, lest I have been wearied for you in vain.

And now in Christ Jesus ye who then being far off have become near in the blood of Christ. For he is our peace, having made both one, and having loosed the middle partition wall of the enclosure; The enmity in his flesh, the law of commands in enactments, having left unemployed; that he might create in himself one new man, making peace;
