Badventist? Only if you remain under the Law.

 

Whether or not such an App exists doesn’t matter, what does matter is that no matter how humorous this short is it points to the main problem of the Law. And that is that:

It can’t save and you can’t keep it.

It causes one to focus on what you’re doing rather that the fact that Jesus fulfilled the Law perfectly and when you’re Born Again you are putting on Christ. And through the Son the Father sees you as perfectly following God’s Law.

Galatians 3:19-27

19 Why then was the law given?   It was added because of transgressions until the Seed to whom the promise was made would come. The law was put into effect through angels  by means of a mediator.  20 Now a mediator is not for just one person, but God is one.  21 Is the law therefore contrary to God’s promises? Absolutely not! For if a law had been given that was able to give life, then righteousness would certainly be by the law. 22 But the Scripture has imprisoned everything under sin’s power, so that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe. 23 Before this faith came, we were confined under the law, imprisoned until the coming faith was revealed. 24 The law, then, was our guardian until Christ, so that we could be justified by faith. 25 But since that faith af  has come, we are no longer under a guardian, 26 for you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ like a garment.

My Adventist friends give up trying to do the impossible and enter into the Rest that has been promised for those who are Born Again.

It’s not about what you can do but about what Christ has already done and finished, it’s simply up to you to accept it.
