Rom. 8:4 that the ordinance of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

When we are a part of Jesus Christ spiritual body the law of sin is fulfilled in us, what does this mean?

It means simply that a hand or a foot on the body is filled with the life of the body as all parts of the body are. If Christ Jesus fulfilled the Old Law or sins laws, by being sinless, then our being a part of him we too are, sinless, or we can say, the law is fulfilled in us because we are in the body of Christ Jesus.

But if we walk according to our flesh we produce sin, the the law of sin judges us, but what does this mean? It does not mean, God brings back the Old Law and we are again judged by the Old law by God, no! Remember it is a completed contract, so it is our own judgments that befall us under sins laws, or that of some Governments law, for breaking the law of the land, but it is not God's judgment by the Old Law.

James 1:13 Let no man say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God," for God can't be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one. 1:14 But each one is tempted, when he is drawn away by his own lust, and enticed. 1:15 Then the lust, when it has conceived, bears sin; and the sin, when it is full grown, brings forth death.

God does not once again hold our sins against us, He does however let us suffer from our own conduct, what does this mean? It means, that when a person sees their own laws, or ways as better than God's law of love, or that they know better than God in their judgments, they have made themselves “a god”. They have choose to eat from the Tree of Good and Evil as Adam and Eve chose do the same, that is, in judging for themselves as it were, what is good and evil for their lives as a god.

These judgments for a child of God are plagues, that causes them much pain and discipline from their own hearts or from the sins of others. Just as the physical nation of Israel received for disobeying God righteous Law. In God's law, there were found, both blessings and malediction. Moreover, this is true of all laws created by human. We must remember as Christian's all false god's must be plagued by their own judgments, when we walk by sin law, making ourselves into a god, ours ways become plagues leading us into death and destruction.

After our discipline, and we come back to God's love in Christ Jesus in walking by Holy Spirit we then receive the blessings of God's love, and not condemnation of our ways. We learn to stop condemning others by sins laws, and we receive the good from the spiritual law of God's love.

Jeremiah 17:10 I, Yahweh, search the mind, I try the heart, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.
