If we are not aware of God's enthusiastic and unconditional love for us, we will not feel connected to Him and we will not be motivated to follow anyone. God has a value for everything He has created. He requires the perfect payment or He will carry out His justice. However, our knowledge of ourselves was given to us through His law, which acts as a mirror. Therefore, if we fulfilled His law we would have a clear understanding of ourselves and everyone else. Now you can see why we are so complicated and emotional. We never meet the standards set by the mirror, so we can never be true to ourselves.What God has shown us is that He is always righteous, and that His love for us is eternal. Consequently, Christ fulfilled the moral law perfectly; He fixed our mirror so that we could see ourselves clearly. Once we see ourselves clearly, God reverses the way we view right and wrong. Instead of dealing with us as miserable sinners, He deals with us as perfect in Christ. This is what we properly designate the state of divine grace. The moral value of our imperfection is renewed by God acting on behalf of eternal righteousness towards us. Therefore, we learn to properly hate sin because it is not as successful as Christ's imputed righteousness. This is why the Apostle said that all his unbounded confidence and protection was in Christ.What is hard for exposed people who desperately require negative karma to intuitively grasp is that wrong is covered by Christ. They reasonably demand ample justice to merely represent what they consistently expose when they break the law. They must pay regardless. But desire naturally attends why they are abject slaves to the discriminatory law. They are unduly prejudiced to being set free from the law as an effective way as we thrust the destructive personal vengeance desire away in being graciously accepted. They do not quite understand our uncritical acceptance in Christ is the direct communication God eagerly embraces us with an unfailing love. Hence, they do not quite follow God's loving actions to us as a Father.
