Act 7:53 Who have received the law by the disposition
of angels, and have not kept it.
Psa 68:17 The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even
thousands of angels: the Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the holy place.
Gal 3:19 Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added
because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was
made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.

The law and angels.
The law was added
because of transgressions- the ceremonial law. The ceremonies that pointed to
forgiveness when one would break the moral law.
We know that sin is the transgression of the law. The moral laws were in
existence before the world was created.
Adam and Eve couldn't have sinned without breaking the law- disobeying
God, no longer putting God first, not having other Gods before Him, not taking
His name in vain. They disobeyed God and
the unspoken moral law, the law that COULD be written on HEARTS.
2Co_3:3 Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be
the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the
Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the
heart
Psa 40:8 I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy
law is within my heart.
Jer 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will
make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my
law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God,
and they shall be my people.
Eze 36:25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you,
and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will
I cleanse you.
Eze 36:26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new
spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your
flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
Eze 36:27 And I will put my spirit within you, and
cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.
Heb 10:16 This is the covenant that I will make with
them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts,
and in their minds will I write them
We were created with
the law of God written on our hearts and when we transgressed that law in our
hearts we were in need of salvation, to be saved from the sin we committed.
The law had to be
written in stone as many years since sin began had hardened the hearts of the
people so they no longer had that law written in their hearts. With the moral law written on tablets of
stone and set before them, their minds could witness those laws and comprehend
their transgressions. They could recognize their need of a Savior. They could
recognize that they could NOT save themselves!
Please Father in
heaven, please help us to recognize our need and save us from ourselves and our
sins! Create in us CLEAN hearts. Renew Your Spirit within us! Write Your laws
on the tables of our HEART! Please LORD, please we would be YOURS saved by Grace!
In the name of our
Savior, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
