We Are Not Under Law But Under Grace

 As Church-age believers, We Are Not Under Law But Under Grace, which means that we are called to live by a standard which is only achieved when we live for Christ, die to self, walk in spirit and truth, and submit to the leading and guidance of the Holy Spirit.
 As Church-age believers, we are not subject to the Mosaic Law (and its many regulations). The prime objective of the Mosaic Law was to identify sin and point the sinner to Christ. Nor are we bound by any man-made laws, religious rules, or legalistic regulations, which are too often imposed by denominational churches or legalistic individuals.
 As Christians, we are not required to do certain things  e.g. keep certain feasts, visit certain places, eat certain foods, or act in certain ways, as part of our 'religion' or faith. However, we should always recognize that although all things are lawful for us, not all things are expedient.
 This verse is not dealing with sinning which is clearly laid out in Scripture for our learning, but is explaining that if legitimate actions or activities cause us, or another Christian, to backslide or stumble, we should recognize the problem and quickly turn from it.
1 Corinthians 6:12 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for the freedom we have in Christ. Thank You that we are not under any form of the Law, but under grace. Keep us from sin, we pray, and give us the wisdom to recognize things that are permissible, but which are not expedient, and help us to live our lives in ways that honors You. Thank You that in Christ, all things are lawful unto us, but we pray that we will not cause another to stumble or backslide in our own Christian life. In Jesus' name, AMEN.
