Ezekiel 20:11
I gave them my statutes and made known to them my ordinances, which a man must do, in order to live by them.
This declaration is absolute.
It is not symbolic, temporary, or conditional.
God Himself affirms that His Law gives life to the one who does it.
The problem was not the Law.
The problem was the heart of man.
The Law of God was not written on the hearts of all the Israelites; not all possessed a heart willing to submit and conform to God’s will.
It is man’s transgression, not the Law, that brings the curse.
The Law remains pure.
The Law remains holy.
The Law remains salvific.
The Law remains intact.
God’s Law has never changed, never diminished, never lost its saving force.
The Law Gives Life The Heart Chooses Death
If God established a Law for man, then there is no room for excuses, no justification for sin, no theological refuge in “weakness,” “inability,” or “sinful nature.”
Where sin exists, there must be:
a consent of the will,
a cooperation with temptation,
a voluntary choice against the Law.
God did not give commandments that man is incapable of keeping.
The Law is given to be lived, and by living it, man receives life.
The False Heresies of Lutheranism and Calvinism Destroy the Purpose of the Law
Contemporary lying doctrines including Lutheran and Calvinist theology falsely teach that the Law of God:
only reveals sin,
only condemns,
only exposes human inability,
and has no sanctifying or saving role.
According to them, the Law exists solely to drive man to rely on mercy, perpetually and indefinitely, without ever achieving moral victory or holiness.
This is a blasphemous distortion of God’s purpose.
Such doctrines deny the Law:
its divine origin,
its power,
its salvific purpose,
and its eternal authority.
They transform the Law into a mere accuser, stripping it of its biblical function: to give life to the one who does it.
The Saving Law of God Remains Intact Forever
It must be proclaimed with authority:
The Law that God revealed through Ezekiel remains intact.
Its saving power remains untouched.
Its moral demands remain unchanged.
Its promise of life remains eternal.
God’s Law is unchangeable because God Himself is unchangeable.
Ezekiel 20:11 is not a temporary covenantal statement.
It is a universal, eternal principle:
He who does the Law shall live by it.
Jesus Himself confirms this truth in Matthew 19:17, and Paul repeats it in Romans 2:13.
The saving Law of God stands forever because it expresses:
the heart of God,
the will of God,
the nature of God,
and the holiness of God.
Nothing can abolish what God has declared as life-giving.
Not tradition, not theology, not Luther, not Calvin, not any modern movement.
The Law of God remains
holy, just, good, and salvific for all generations, eternally.
