I want to credit voltaire with the assist, for bringing this one to my attention. :up:
POD :first:Those who are in Christ HAVE fulfilled the Commandments. That is the whole point! There is nothing left for them to do. HE is our righteousness. We are holy, righteous, blameless, complete, and perfect. Not because of anything we do, but solely because of everything He is and has done. We are in Him, and in Him there is no sin. It is impossible for us to be counted as sinners, no matter how much we fall short in the flesh, because we are now a new creation in Christ (spiritually). We are alive in the spirit and are waiting for the redemption of our bodies that are still dead because of the sin that killed us.
