Christ in us is the law in us.

Rom 10:3  For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.

Submitting ourselves to the righteousness of God.

Rom 10:4  For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.

Without Christ the law means NOTHING, nothing at all whatsoever.  The law is NULL and VOID, the law is MEANINGLESS without our Savior.

Our Savior PROVED the law.
Our Savior GAVE the law.
Our Savior is LOVE and His law is LOVE.
The law without Christ is NOTHING!

You can keep every single commandment perfectly from a legal standpoint, yet at the same time keep none of them perfectly from a spiritual standpoint.

Christ in us is the law in us. He kept the law perfectly for us!

Keeping the law by our own power is NEVER What God intended, never. Recognizing Him in every law, recognizing His righteousness in every law, this is truth. Recognizing our need of a Heavenly Father, recognizing our need of a Savior, this is truth!

Recognizing we need to forever submit to the righteousness of God is TRUTH.

Choosing to be saved, not choosing to save ourselves.

Some might think they are one and the same and in some respects they are, but if someone chooses to save themselves without choosing to be saved by another, by Jesus Christ, then they fail.  All their righteousness, all their commandment keeping will be in vain without our SAVIOR.

We need to be SAVED. 

By the grace and mercy of our Lord, may we be saved!

All in HIS LOVE, HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS forever!


Amen.
