Where's the Power to Perform?
Do we honestly think that if we are clever and use the word "imperitives" instead of "Law" that it will be life changing? Demand is demand no matter how you try to dress it up. We are just as impotent to perform the "imperitives" in the New Testament as we were to obey the law in the Old. We are empowered by the finished work as we receive the word and LET it take root in our hearts. Paul does not call himself a minister of "imperitives" but a minister of righteousness. The righteousness will produce the fruit in us as we rest in who He has made us. Stop disqualifying His people!
