GRAVES—*“The Clothing Man” Franklin Street — Juneau General and director general here| | i FUTURE A good many people feel that heaven is a far, faraway place; only for a very few of the saintly and the pious. Have you ever felt that way ? That somehow, it just isn't the place for you? Actually the absolute opposite is true: heaven is a very real and tangible place, and it is yours for the asking! But this does not in any way mitigate another im- portant truth: no matter how “saintly” you apparently v be- come, you can never reach hes by your own goodness! This is due to the simple fact that there is a law which you and everyone else in this world have broken: the Ten Com- mandments. These Command- ments, given by God Himself (Exodus 20:3-17) are His law of conduct for this world. Any- thing we have done that is out of harmony with this law of God is sin and, obviously, no “sinner” can ever enter God's paradise. “Sin,” the Bible says, “is the transgression of the law.” I John 8:4. We are also told that “all have sinned.” Ro- mans 3:23. So, since the “wages of is eternal death, the situation doesn’t look too good for any of us, does it? But in this very same statement of warning we are given a thrill- ing promise: “The gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:23. This is exactly what the gospel story is all about! 1. God has a standard of conduct for us which cannot be annulled. 2. The pen- alty of that law is eternal death. 3. We have all broken the law and thus must pay the penalty or find Someone who will save us from it. Thus, 4, the gospel, the “good news” of salvation, can be re- duced to one simple statement: “Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law”! Galatians 3:13. How has He done this? By abolishing the law? No, for then there would be nothing to transgress, and thus no sin from which we need to be saved! He has redeemed us by taking the “curse” of that law, death, upon Himself. He gave His life for ours, and thus we are saved, by His grace, from the penalty of a broken law. Warning and Promise! sin” Some believe that because faith in Christ saves us from the pen- alty of the law, faith also annuls the law itself! But saint and sinner are both bound by the same law. The sinner is a sinner because he breaks that law. The grace of Christ can com- \X/hat Is a pensate for his transgression, but the law is still A ? there. If he breaks Sinner? it again, he is a condemmed: sinner again. We do not do away with the law of the land because it requires the grace of the governor himself to annul the penalty. The very fact that we need the saving grace of Jesus proves ‘more than anything else that there is a law against which we have transgressed, and’ which cannot be done away. That is why Paul said: “Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we es- tablish the law.” Romans 3:31. These Commandments will be cherished by those who, through faith in Jesus, are counted worthy to “enter in through the gates” into eternity. Revelation 22:14. Heaven is not illusory and un- attainable, It is the most real of all realities and may be won by “whosoever will.” But it may be well to study those Command- ments more frequently. Exodus 20:3-17.
