Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believes. Romans 10:4.
When the law, by its spirituality, has condemned all our works and doings, convinced us of our weakness, and slain us, it has done its work, and has no further business, but to be our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ; and being in him, the law has no demands upon us any more, since we have an abundant righteousness, beyond all that can be required by the law, even in the righteousness of God himself.
Lord, when my thoughts with wonder roll
Over the sharp sorrows of my soul,
And read my Maker’s broken laws,
Repaired and honoured by thy cross:
When I behold, death, hell and sin,
Vanquished by that dear blood of thine,
And see the man that groaned and died,
Sit glorious by his Father’s side;
My passions rise and soar above,
I’m winged with faith, and fired with love,
Fain would I reach eternal things,
And learn the notes that Gabriel sings.
But my heart fails, my tongue complains,
For want of their immortal strains;
And in such humble notes as these
Must fall below thy victories.
