Galatians 6:2 New International Version (NIV)
2 Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will
fulfill the law of Christ.
"I didn't know Jesus had a law!" Well, he doesn't
have a written one like we find in the Old Testament (2 Corinthians 3). No, his
is Spirit-imprinted on our hearts and transforms our character. This law gives
us liberty from written law (James 2:12-17) and emphasizes the undergirding
principle that guided Jesus' life — sacrifice and service for others (Philippians
2:5-11). Far more than a written law, this is a passion for Christ and a
commitment to be like him.
Thought for today:
Do I embody the laws of righteousness?
