3. Paul's disregard of the law

Tags: Law, Christians, Paul

Romans 3:20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

Romans 3:28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.

Romans 4:15 Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, there is no transgression.

Romans 5:13 (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.

Romans 6:14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

Romans 7:8 But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead.

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala said:

قُلْ إِنْ كَانَ ءَابَآؤُكُمْ وَأَبْنَآؤُكُمْ وَإِخْوٰنُكُمْ وَأَزْوٰجُكُمْ وَعَشِيرَتُكُمْ وَأَمْوٰلٌ اقْتَرَفْتُمُوهَا وَتِجٰرَةٌ تَخْشَوْنَ كَسَادَهَا وَمَسٰكِنُ تَرْضَوْنَهَآ أَحَبَّ إِلَيْكُمْ مِّنَ اللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِۦ وَجِهَادٍ فِى سَبِيلِهِۦ فَتَرَبَّصُوا حَتّٰى يَأْتِىَ اللَّهُ بِأَمْرِهِۦ ۗ وَاللَّهُ لَا يَهْدِى الْقَوْمَ الْفٰسِقِينَ
"Say, [O Muhammad], If your fathers, your sons, your brothers, your wives, your relatives, wealth which you have obtained, commerce wherein you fear decline, and dwellings with which you are pleased are more beloved to you than Allah and His Messenger and jihad in His cause, then wait until Allah executes His command. And Allah does not guide the defiantly disobedient people."
(QS. At-Tawba 9: Verse 24)..
Matthew 19:29 And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.
