Law Keeping Teachers.
The law-keeper proponents have been maintaining that law keeping is the priority for believers, this under minds the finished work of Christ's sacrifice by, if not negating it, adding to His grace message and shows a lack of confidence and trust in what He has accomplished.
This gospel of doing to keep the law is a subtle way to lure people away from God's grace message to maintain religious control over the people. The purpose of the commandment is not to maintain control from a legalistic point of view, but to love from a pure heart, love without regard for any self-interest. Law keeping is turning aside from the gospel of grace, a life open to God, and returning to something that it is impossible for man to do as no man has or can keep the commandments save the man Christ Jesus.
To return to law keeping brings no more righteousness than the nutrition than a person would get from eating his own vomit.
Those who maintain that the law produces godliness, right standing with God and brings God's favor is nothing short of idle talk and vain babbling in order to maintain control and fuel egotistic self-claimed spiritual giants.
Law keeper teachers set them themselves up as experts of the gospel but haven't the slightest clue of what they are talking about or what they hold to with such convincing religious eloquence. They are blind leaders causing blindness to those they lead. What they say may be important moral guidance and council, but the way they say it is more important than saying it. To say law keeping is the way to gain or maintain your relationship with God is entirely the wrong way to say it. In fact, it is lying without knowing they are lying!
It should be obvious to any sane thinking individual that the law isn't for people who live in the love of God and in whom God lives, moves, leads and directs. But for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for man slayers, for fornicators, for sodomites, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, who defy all authority, riding roughshod over God. They are scornful of this great grace message that Paul was put in charge of by Jesus Himself.
