Romans 7:10
10 And [kai] the commandment [entole], which [ho] was ordained to [eis] life [zoe], I [moi] found [heurisko] [houtos] to be unto [eis] death [thanatos]. KJV-Interlinear
10 The very commandment that promised
life proved to be death to me. ESV
The very commandment, refers to the Mosaic law.
Throughout the Old Testament there are many passages which point to the
intention of the law in producing life and happiness.
Many passages state that if you keep my statutes and
my judgments, then you shall live.
But all of these passages point to man’s incapability
of keeping Gods statutes and judgments, and therefore life by them is not an
option.
The actual result of this effort, is death.
And that actual result of death is because of man’s
incapability of meeting all of the spiritual requirements of a perfect life by
means of his own efforts.
And again the emphasis is that the law is not the
answer, but the Savior is.
These studies, are a part of the massive
daily study web site at DailyBibeStudy.Org, that is easily accessible, and are
written, so that you can come to Christ if you have not done so already, and
therefore not be lost forever.
And
if you have already believed in Christ, then these studies are written so you
can learn and understand and grow in your spiritual life, so that you can come
to the full knowledge of Christ, so that you can fulfill your meaning and
purpose in life as God intended for you, and so you can qualify for a
phenomenal eternal reward which you will have forever.
To
ignore this opportunity to pursue a daily study means you will be incomplete,
unfulfilled and you will lose out, big time.
The
Daily Bible Study is online, making it possible as never before in all of human
history, to advance in ones relationship with God, through Christ, and to
complete yourself beyond your imagination.
But
you have to decide to make that commitment.
No one else can study for you.
You have to do that yourself.
