What does Ellen White write about...
Adventistische Schriften über: "Explain Galatians 3:10–14."
Answer
Galatians 3:10–14 demonstrates that attempting to gain justification through the works of the law leaves humanity under condemnation, because the broken law demands the life of the transgressor. Christ redeemed fallen humanity from this curse by taking the penalty of sin upon Himself at the cross, being made a curse in the sinner's stead. Through faith in His atoning sacrifice, believers receive the blessing of Abraham, the promise of the Spirit, and the righteousness of God to walk in obedience.
Redeemed from the Curse to Receive the Promise of the Spirit
»Christ was made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law. And that blessed work is accomplished for every soul who accepts of that redemption. “Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us.” His being made a curse is not in vain: it accomplishes all that was intended by it in behalf of every man who will receive it. For it was all done “that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.”«
Justification by Faith Versus the Curse of the Law
»“UNDER THE CURSE. — ‘For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse; for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident; for, the just shall live by faith. And the law is not of faith; but, the man that doeth them shall live in them. Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us; for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.’”«
Christ Bore the Penalty to Enable Obedience
»Without Christ, the transgressor was left under its curse, with no hope of pardon. The ministration had of itself no glory, but the promised Saviour, revealed in the types and shadows of the ceremonial law, made the moral law glorious... Christ bore the curse of the law, suffering its penalty, carrying to completion the plan whereby man was to be placed where he could keep God's law, and be accepted through the merits of the Redeemer; and by His sacrifice glory was shed upon the law.«
Only Christ Could Redeem Man from the Broken Law's Curse
»The broken law of God demanded the life of the sinner. In all the universe there was but one who could, in behalf of man, satisfy its claims. Since the divine law is as sacred as God Himself, only one equal with God could make atonement for its transgression. None but Christ could redeem fallen man from the curse of the law and bring him again into harmony with Heaven. Christ would take upon Himself the guilt and shame of sin—sin so offensive to a holy God that it must separate the Father and His Son.«
