SDA’s base their faith in the bible and blood of Jesus Christ. Robert “commandment” Breaker/hater groupies are ignorant of this fact.

sda’s place their faith in their own self righteousness. And since we recognize the Gospel of Grace we are not under Law. You and your fellow hypocrites in the rcc wouldn’t understand that since your faith is not in the Finished Works of Jesus Christ and Him Crucified!

Every human who will be saved, will have been saved by Grace. Those who aren’t saved will have either rejected Christ, or professed Christians continuing in their LAWlessness.
SDA’s are saved by Grace, AND THEN they keep God’s law out of love for what He did for them on the cross.
Robert “commandment” Breaker/hater groupies REJECT God’s law as morally binding and think they are OSAS/OJAJ at the microsecond of grace, forever, no matter how they live their lives from that point on. I wonder if RCB has a picture of Ravi hanging in his house?

Conclusion
This background helps us to understand that what Paul attacks is not the value of the law as a guide to Christian conduct. On the contrary, he emphatically affirms that Christ came “in order that the just requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us” (chap. 8:4). Paul criticizes not the moral but the soteriological understanding of the law, that is, the law viewed as a document of election that includes the Jews and excludes the Gentiles.
The mounting pressure of Judaizers who were urging circumcision upon the Gentiles made it necessary for Paul to attack the exclusive-covenant concept of the law.
The failure to distinguish in Paul’s writings between his moral and soteriological usages of the law, and the failure to recognize that his criticism of the law is directed not toward Jewish Christians but toward Gentile Judaizers, has led many to conclude erroneously that Paul was an antinomian who rejected the validity of the law as a whole. Such a view is totally unwarranted because, as we have shown, Paul rejects the law as a method of salvation but upholds it as a moral standard of Christian conduct.
