Conclusion:
The law of OT is good but the Jews did not obey. So the Jews and the Gentiles are all under God’s wrath. God is faithful and true; he will judge the sinners impartially but at the same time he will keep his promise to save. That is the power of the Cross to judge and save the sinners at the same time. Believing Jesus is Christ is the only way we can walk in the light of the truth.
So many denies Jesus becomes flesh; they do not know the truth and do not live in the truth. Hope we all experience peace and love and hope through knowing Jesus is the Messiah, the King.
