Eph. 1:13 in whom you also, having heard the word of the truth, the Good News of your salvation,--in whom, having also believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise.

Those walking by Law find it incomprehensible to understand how some one can be so assured of their faith in God and Christ Jesus. They find it a put down as though they are lacking in and of themselves, but in truth they do lack, but not in and of themselves, but in God Holy Spirit.

Those of us that believe have been given a gift and sealed with God's Holy Spirit of His promises. This is what is lacking for Christians walking by law, they don't have the seal the witnesses bearer witness that God is real and Christ Jesus is alive. You see, without the seal one must build by law institutions where one can see instead of walk by faith. Every aspect of ones faith is judged by law to measure the quality of their faith.

But those walking in spirit their faith is not measure by degrees of law; it is given to them by God 's Holy Spirit as He pleases; along with the rest of the fruits of the Holy Spirit. These are good trees of God's planting, however, the flesh cannot see them by their fruits because they measure all things by doctrines and the rules of their institutions.

This is why those claiming to worship God killed Christ Jesus, because according to their rules, and doctrines they judged him as evil. The Jewish community were masters at measuring faith according to rules, but they could not see the Holy Spirit in Christ and his good fruits. Making an irreversible mistake of a life time, they judged Christ Jesus faith as not worthy of life.
