God’s Law is a demanding Law.
God is nothing if not just and His law demands that a price must be paid for sin.
His Law is perfect.
But people are not.
There is no possible way that human beings (the flesh) can maintain a holy law without eventually failing.
We are too weak.
We can’t stand the strain.
Just ask the Israelites who took 40 years to make an eleven-day journey.
We get in our way.
We stumble over our own feet.
Nonetheless, God’s Law must be honored.
There was a debt to be paid, but we were bankrupt.
We couldn’t fulfill our part of the bargain, so Christ had to step in.
In His perfection, He took the penalty we were supposed to pay upon Himself.
He paid the price that we couldn’t pay so that the requirements of the Law would be met.
When we couldn’t, He did.
He still does.
Amen 🙏
