The Law is Never an Option

If we are dead to the law, then to go back to it in any way shape or form is never an option. It makes Jesus a minister of sin. It also brings a constant sin consciousness that keeps people in guilt, judgement and condemnation. A "law consciousness" is what produces a "sin consciousness" whereas Christ gives us a "righteousness consciousness." Luther says we are not to know the law but move on into Jesus and transcend to grace. The church that keeps you in law is a church that ministers sin.
