To the man living under grace ALONE, God gives a "guarantee" (2 Cor. `1:22; 5:5; Eph 1:14) of "forgiveness" (Eph 1:7) for every sin (Col. 2:13)

However, the LAW does not guarantee the forgiveness of every sin. Thus Jesus spoke of the unforgiveable sin (Mt. 12:31; Mark 3:28-29; Luke 12:10) Also , under CIRCUMCISION, a man committed a presumptuous sin if he sinned presuming that the forgiveness was guaranteed. The presumptuous sinner might go through religious motions, but he lacked TRUE repentance. So a man living under the LAW could be "cut off" for breaking Gods "commandment.

How do I know this??? Am I giving an opinion, or does the Word tell us just that? Lets look:

Num. 15:30,31 " But the person who does anything presumptously, whether he is native born or a stranger, that one brings reproach on the Lord, and he shall be cut off from among his people. (Remember this is speaking about Israel here, and NOT the Body of Christ...we cannot be cut off from Christ but are made ONE with Him upon believing) The verse continues...."Because he has despised the word of the Lord, and has broken His commandment, that person shall be completely CUT OFF, his guilt shall be upon him."

If an Israelite refused to circumcise, arguing that such a fleshly act is irrelevant to a realtionship with a spiritual God, the Lord would have rejected that man. Does the act of cutting off the foreskin have an inherent ability to save anyone? NO. However, God can and did require that act before He would give salvation to anyone under the Covenant of Circumcision.

We, in this dispensation, have the circumcision NOT made with hands. God cut away the body of sin that screamed out our guilt and "made us the righteousness of God in HIM" He no longer sees our sin, but sees us IN the righteous ONE who BORE those sins in His own body on a tree.

Hallelujah.

What Would Jesus Do? He would have ignored you, you're a Gentile!      Now aren't you glad He sent Paul to the world with a message of grace!
