(Gal 2:20, 5:16) CONTRAST OF GRACE AND LAW LAW GRACE The law prohibits Grace invites and gives The law condemns the sinner Grace redeems the sinner. The law says DO Grace says IT IS DONE. The law says, Continue to be holy Grace says, It is finished. The law curses Grace blesses The law slays the sinner Grace makes the sinner alive. The law shuts every mouth before God Grace opens the mouth to praise God. The law condemns the best man Grace saves the worst man. The law says, pay what you owe Grace says, I freely forgive you all. The law says “the wages of sin is death” Grace says, “the gift of God is eternal life.” The law says, “the soul that sins shall die” Grace says, Believe and live. The law reveals sin Grace atones for sin. By the law is the knowledge of sin By grace is redemption from sin. The law was given by Moses Grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. The law demands obedience Grace bestows and gives power to obey. The law was written on stone Grace is written on the tables of the heart. The law was done away in Christ Grace abides forever. The law puts us under bondage Grace sets us in the liberty of the sons of God.
