Leaving Law-Law Land (Part 2)

“Law Law Land” describes a system where sin is at the center: trying to manage it, trying to avoid it, trying to be sure everything is fairly judged, trying to please or punish others, depending on their behavior. Here we are focused on keeping laws so that God can hopefully bless us. His approval is based on our abilities to do what is right. 

In Jesus we escape into Graceland, a place where Grace flows freely and people are moved by love: the love the Father has for them as well as the love they genuinely feel and want for other people. Here we don’t operate under a contractual agreement, but rather through communion, which is based on unlimited reliability. Graceland is where we trust God, who is love, and commune with Him, relying on His goodness to carry us through the challenges of life.
