Fundamental Gospel

"The law of Moses was unable to save us because of the weakness of our sinful nature." -Romans 8:3 NLT

Old testament laws or the law of Moses was unable to save us because of our sinful nature.

That's why God sent his only son Jesus Christ. Blood had to be shed for sins to be pardoned.

"... for the life of the body is in it's blood. I have given you the blood on the altar to purify you, making you right with the Lord. It is the blood, given in exchange for a life, that makes purification possible." -Leviticus 17:11 NLT

But the blood of animals could not remove sins....

"For it is not possible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins." -Hebrews 10:4 NLT

Jesus was crucified, then beat death. Death could not hold our Savior! That sacrifice allowed people to be lead by the Holy Spirit, not our sinful nature. Or at least that's what he intended...

Soooo... is leading you?

Why are u post-topping me? Tired of this mess. By the way, I was awful at 24-hour last night, way to out of control and my defense was so passive. By the way I'm out of shape, my lungs were on gasp mode. But about your post, uhhhh, it's nice.
