The Law is summarised in the Shema in Deuteronomy 6:4-5. It speaks of the Fundamental Doctrine and the Fundamental Duty.

1. GOAL OF THE LAW

God’s Law is about love, not just rules: love Him with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength wholly and Him alone.

2. GOODNESS OF THE LAW

Obedience brings blessing, but no judge or king keeps God’s Law. We all fail—except Jesus. He fulfilled the Law, loved the Father perfectly, and secured its promised good. Repent and believe in Him for eternal life—the greatest love of all.

3. GRACE TO DO THE LAW

God’s people can live out this Law, because Christ lives in us. He has given us a new heart and a new Spirit. This love for God and obedience to His Word is the evidence of true salvation. May God lead you to the cross, for grace and goodness in Jesus alone.
