Learning by Grace

The rest of God by faith in Christ is a gift of God. The finished  work of Christ fulfills all biblical imagery marred by sin and doesn't take us back to the sins of the sinfully unfaithful but forward to the future hope of those who follow the Crucified, based solely on His sinless faithfulness. It shows us we do not have to do what they did, ala 1 Cor.10, but learn from their negative example as we abide in Christ and look to our blessed hope.
