<\/a>This grace in which we stand<\/em> (\u1f11\u03c3\u03c4\u1f75\u03ba\u03b1\u03bc\u03b5\u03bd<\/a>, a form of \u1f35\u03c3\u03c4\u03b7\u03bc\u03b9<\/a>) was difficult for me to comprehend.\u00a0 It is the same word as uphold<\/em> in the answer to Paul\u2019s question, Do we then nullify the law through faith?\u00a0 Absolutely not!\u00a0 Instead we uphold<\/a> <\/em>(\u1f31\u03c3\u03c4\u1f71\u03bd\u03bf\u03bc\u03b5\u03bd<\/a>, a form of \u1f31\u03c3\u03c4\u03ac\u03bd\u03c9<\/a>) the law<\/em>.19<\/sup><\/a> [Addendum March 7, 2024<\/strong>: According to the Koine Greek Lexicon online, \u1f31\u03c3\u03c4\u1f71\u03bd\u03bf\u03bc\u03b5\u03bd<\/a> is a form of \u1f31\u03c3\u03c4\u03ac\u03bd\u03c9<\/a>.]\u00a0 The King James translation<\/a> had it, we establish the law<\/em>.\u00a0 I had trouble squaring grace and establishing the law because I thought establishing the law meant an evenhanded application of the punishments for sin listed in Leviticus 20, for instance.\u00a0 I thought the law could not or would not be established or upheld until those punishments were implemented on the whole planet, whether by believers or by Christ Himself I was never quite certain.<\/p>\n

<\/a>I was Abin Cooper from Kevin Smith\u2019s<\/a> \u201cRed State<\/a>\u201d (played brilliantly by Michael Parks<\/a>, by the way) in spirit if not in action (my \u201cfaith\u201d was completely devoid of works, thankfully, in this particular case).\u00a0 Long before Kevin Smith penned \u201cRed State\u201d the Lord used Nietzsche\u2019s<\/a> hot wind to unmask me.\u00a0 \u201cAnd again, there are those who hold it a virtue to say: \u2018Virtue is necessary\u2019: but fundamentally they believe only that the police are necessary.\u201d20<\/sup><\/a>\u00a0 I argued for a time that Nietzsche had not aptly described me, but lost that argument in the end.\u00a0 \u201cSometimes when you lose, you win.\u201d21<\/sup><\/a>\u00a0 Once I acknowledged that I didn\u2019t know what it meant to uphold<\/em> or establish<\/em> the law, I began to learn.<\/p>\n

<\/a>We who through <\/em>Jesus Christ have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand<\/em> do not glorify God or uphold his law by seeking to punish evildoers, but by demonstrating the love that is the fulfillment of the law<\/em>.22<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n

If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but I do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. \u00a0And if I have prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so that I can remove<\/a> mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing [Table<\/a>]<\/em>. \u00a0If<\/a> I give away everything I own, and if I give over my body in order to boast<\/a>, but do not have love, I receive no benefit [Table<\/a>]<\/em>. \u00a0Love is patient, love is kind, it is not envious.\u00a0 Love does not brag, it is not puffed up. \u00a0It is not rude, it is not self-serving, it is not easily angered or resentful. \u00a0It is not glad about injustice, but rejoices in the truth. \u00a0It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.\u00a0 Love never ends<\/a>.\u00a0 But if there are prophecies, they will be set aside; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be set aside [Table<\/a>]<\/em>. \u00a0For<\/a> we know in part, and we prophesy in part, but when what is perfect comes<\/a>, the partial will be set aside [Table<\/a>]<\/em>. \u00a0When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child.\u00a0 But23<\/sup><\/a> <\/em>when I became an adult, I set aside childish ways. \u00a0For now we see in a mirror indirectly, but then we will see face to face.\u00a0 Now I know in part, but then I will know fully, just as I have been fully known. \u00a0And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love.24<\/sup><\/a><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
