Is the purpose of Laws given,
Unto us all under Heaven;
For it tells you of wrongdoing,
In the sin you are pursuing.
Laws from Moses was showing you,
The promise on how to be true;
It was enacted through angels,
But some may treat them like fables.
Does this mean that they contradict,
For the intent that they depict;
In promises God had given,
Unto us to enter Heaven.
If all those laws could give us life,
Why do we cope with so much strife;
Because we do trust and obey,
Throughout each and every day.
But the world is controlled by sin,
The power that corrupts within;
If a faith based promise through Christ,
Assists you from being enticed.
It is given to those who believe,
Eternal life you will receive;
With a means to confess your wrong,
So agony does not prolong.
For we were kept under control,
By the Moses laws for our soul;
Until our faith which was sealed,
Through Jesus Christ would be revealed.
The laws served as a guardian,
Till we see the Galilean;
And no more under the control,
Of the watchman observes my soul.
You are children with faith in Christ,
And willing to be sacrificed;
For all of you have been baptized,
In lieu of being circumcised.
