(graced), not plan B: Bondage (lawed)? Yet why is Plan B given first,
then Plan A came afterward?
Could it be for comparsion of
what God is not: Law, to
what God is: Grace?
eg: The law (and lie) was given by Moses,
but grace (and truth) came by Jesus Christ.
eg: the law and the prophets were until John, but
since that time the KofG (grace & truth) is preached,
and every man (of child/man) presseth into it.
eg: He taketh away the first (law and lie)
that he may establish the second (grace and truth)
eg: a study, to shew thyself "approved" unto God,
would involve look at both disapproved & approved,
(aka look at both law and grace, as if lie and truth)
but it neither begins with blame nor ends with shame;
and when finished (before the cross) has no death sting
Perhaps the work God gave JC to do:
grace and truth the world God so loved,
got "finished" before the cross: John 17,
and not at the cross: John 19; Especially
if told law imputed sin, when "it is finished",
brings forth "death" (not life): James 1:15?
God did NOT send his Son to condemn (law);
Nor to bring us death, but rather to bring us life,
eternal life: life void of death, not life after death.
God will have mercy (grace), and not sacrifice (law);
And do the will of God precedes receive the promise.
Those who had sacrifice died and rec'd not the promise.
So, perhaps we should re-consider the cross, if
reconciling the world is "to God" can't lie nor die;
And the only other option given is: "not escape":
eg: "not suffered to continue by reason of death".
Obviously "endure unto the end" requires continuance,
and the final aspect of "saved", which is given first, is
endure unto the end (of law) in order to be saved (only).
