The Purpose of the Law

The Law added for transgression,
Till the seed to the promise made;
Understanding of confession,
Learning how God must be obeyed.

Through the angels was put in place,
As a mediator implies;
More than just One, though God gives grace,
For the forgiveness that applies.

The Law surely not different,
For it is given to give life;
People should not be ignorant,
When being confronted with strife.

Righteousness indeed through the Law,
But Scripture imprisoned in sin;
Corrupting to increase the flaw,
And a moral decay within.

Promise by faith in Jesus Christ,
Is given to those who believe;
The reason being sacrificed,
For salvation that you receive.

Before faith came, we were captives,
Imprisoned till faith was revealed;
And were feeling like fugitives,
When intercession gave a shield.

The Law shield our guardian,
In order through faith justified;
Christ as authoritarian,
The Son of God is glorified.

But because now that faith is here,
We no longer need to worry;
For the triune God we revere,
Worshipping and laud the glory.

Through faith you are all sons of God,
For many of you were baptized;
To honor while we applaud.
Should never be shocked or surprised.

Not Greek nor Jew neither a slave,
Not a single female or male;
Shall be remaining in their grave,
Because their faith will never fail.

If you are of Christ, then an heir,
From Abraham being His seed;
You are promised having a share,
Of an inheritance indeed.
