It is so wonderful to know that I do not reap death when I sin. I do not have to worry about being condemned or thrown away. The curses of Deuteronomy do not apply to me...as I have been saved by God already. I do not even have to put up with mildew...and the nasty allergy I had had to it before, any more. Praise God for being so good and so just!
I do not have to be conscience of my sins either... I do not have to dwell and beat myself up...just focus on God and let Him flow through me...as the kingdom of God is within me..and you, too :) God is so good...the more I learn about how GOOD GOD IS, the more peace and the effects of grace* I have in my heart. (This leads me to the next conclusion, that when it talks about in 1 Peter 1:2-3 that we will have grace and peace from our knowledge of God...then you take what the effects of grace are, you can look at 1 Cor. 12 and also all other times grace is used it bestows kindness, love, mercy...the core of who God is...and put them back into that verse, 1 Peter 1:2...and you have something even bigger...when you have a knowledge of God you have mercy, kindness, the ability to work miracles, words of wisdom, prophecy, speaking in diverse tongues, discerning of spirits, love, charity, and anything else that falls into the grace of God. Because knowing what God has, and that He's in you, means all that God is...all that yummy goodness is within you, too! Booyah! )
Hebrews 10:2 For then would they not
have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged
should have had no more conscience of sins.
Luke 17:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
2 Peter 1:2-3
2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,
3 According
as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto
life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to
glory and virtue:
* Grace effects are actually what most people call gifts of the spirit...there is a great article on it here, http://www.wiebefamily.org/spiritual_gifts.htm.
