The Law to the proud and grace to the humble. The Law paves the way for grace at the cross.

"Give not that which is holy to the dogs, neither cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you" (Matthew 7:6).

When Did Jesus Use the Law?

"Just as the world was not ready for the New Testament before it received the Old, just as the Jews were not prepared for the ministry of Christ until John the Baptist had gone before Him with his claimant call to repentance, so the unsaved are in no condition today for the gospel till the Law be applied to their hearts, for 'by the Law is the knowledge of sin.' It is a waste of time to sow seed on ground which has never been ploughed or spaded! To present the vicarious sacrifice of Christ to those whose dominant passion is to take fill of sin, is to give that which is holy to the dogs" - A. W. Pink

The way of the Master.

The Law to the proud and grace to the humble. The Law paves the way for grace at the cross.

"Give not that which is holy to the dogs, neither cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you" (Matthew 7:6).

Notice how the sins named are transgressions of the Moral Law - the Ten Commandments. If civil law can prove that you are planning to assassinate the President, you can be prosecuted and severely punished. That law, however, is limited in its search for evidence - it can't see what a man thinks. Not so with the all-seeing eye of our Creator. His Law searches the heart. He sees "evil thoughts," and requires truth in the inward parts (Psalms 51:6).

To think hatred is to commit murder (1 John 3:15) and transgress the sixth Commandment.

To think lustfully is to commit adultery (Matthew 5:27-28) and transgress the Seventh Commandment.

Fornication breaks the same Commandment (Galatians 5:19).

Then Jesus names theft (Eight Commandment),

false witness (Ninth),

and blasphemies (Third).

A person cannot lust without breaking the Tenth, and by their nature, these sins transgress the remaining four Commandments.

All sin traces in some way back to the Moral Law, for sin is transgression of the Law (1 John 3:4).

This is why the Law must be used to bring the knowledge of sin to religious people who are trusting in their own righteous deeds for their salvation.

"For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, theft, false witness, blasphemies" (Matthew 15:19) The Evidence Bible.
