Although I have been educated, I am not smart enough to answer questions about the logic of God and words, without a lot of research (using other people’s words and thoughts).

What I do know, 100 percent, absolutely, 24/7, is the truth in the first scripture I ever memorized when it became real to me that I was loved, in spite of what I knew I was! It was Romans 8:1-4. It still speaks comfort to my being and to my spirit no matter what is going on around me..... or within me....

Romans 8:1-4
There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.(Romans 8:1-4)

Christ fulfilled the law perfectly for us ... something we can never DO...

When ever we hear we are to DO something it is the LAW ...the LAW is DO ...GRACE is DONE

What the unsaved do not know, because they have not experienced it, is the heart change God does in His kids.. no longer driven by being slaves to sin, we are slaves to Christ and His righteousness. .no longer righteousness by works of the flesh ...but by the spirit of God
