“For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law. So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty” (James 2:10–12).

(Saved by Grace, judged by the law).

“Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law” (Romans 3:31). Here is the most explicit answer to the entire problem. Paul asks if the law is nullified for us just because we have had faith in Christ’s saving grace. His answer is that the law is established and reinforced in the life of a grace-saved Christian.

AND THAT IS EXACTLY THE MEANING OF THE NEW COVENANT:

10For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:

No free pass on sin....
11For there is no respect of persons with God.

12For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;

13(For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.

FOR THERE IS NO RESPECT OF PERSONS WITH GOD. We are all going to be judged by God and judgment begins at the house of God.

1 Peter 4:17
For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

You are wrong in your definition of the New Covenant. But in your present carnal state, not in a spiritual state, you cannot by your intellect discern spiritual truth. Your posts serve not the Spirit but the natural man. Your ignorance can ONLY be cured by The Spirit. The Spirit abides in EVERY born again member of the Body of Christ. The restrainer is that same Holy Spirit Who places the seed of God in the human spirit. The Presence of that seed ofg God imputes the righteousness of Christ to the individual who is born again in the now.

Your cult has led you to believe the Restrainer is restraining the Cahtoilic Org. You are learning an error spewed to empower an org known as the seventh day adventists.
