Heb.10:38 But the righteous will live by faith. If he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him."{Habakkuk 2:3-4}

There is but one way to please God, and its not by being obedient to a rule of law found in your bible, because it can't be done as a sinner. Hence, God sent us His Son Christ Jesus, a perfect man too purchase what we could not do by our obedience, in keeping the Laws of God, and/or commandments.

John 8:34 Jesus answered them, "Most certainly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is the bondservant of sin.

If you don't believe that, than a person cannot put faith in Christ Jesus, and please God. Each day as Christian's we are faced with the truth of our lives, we our sinner, we sin against God, and each others daily, we cannot do a good-work to have our sin atone for! Either we accept, we must be redeemed, atone for, or we lie! Hence, at this point is where Christian's often loose their whole perspective by thinking: “I've been redeemed now I must work to please God!” Which of course directly and profoundly contradicts the truth of God's own word.

1 John 5:17 All unrighteousness is sin, and there is a sin not leading to death.

You see, once a person is redeemed/atone for by God, in not being able to keep His commandments, they are saved, saved from their inability to stop sinning, but they still sin. Now to teach others, one can please God while sinning is a lie! There is only one simple way to stop sinning, do you know how that is?

1 John 5:18 We know that whoever is born of God doesn't sin, but he who was born of God keeps himself, and the evil one doesn't touch him.

That person must be in a new life without sin, now if your in your old life, than you are a sinner, but if your in a new life, without sin, God accounts that new life as your life, which life has no sin. The new life is the life of Christ Jesus, we are grafted into Christ Jesus life the good tree having no sin, which makes us sinless too God. Now does a sinless person need commandments making them obey? Did the sinless life of Christ need to be commanded by laws for sinners to obey?

1 John 3:5 You know that he was revealed to take away our sins, and in him is no sin.

1 John 3:6 Whoever remains in him doesn't sin. Whoever sins hasn't seen him, neither knows him.

Here is the problem, if your in Christ your sinless, although still sinning in your flesh, correct? If a person is sinless the commandments are abolished completed by the very life you have now been made apart of by faith. Thus, having become a sinles part of it, correct? So than what law must you live in? Love, why love? Because love fulfills all the commandments, correct? Hence, here then is the point of this verse in Hebrews. For us to live in the law of love it can only be done one way, and that is by our faith, but why? Because putting faith into obedience too the commandments or laws, is not faith at all, but sight! In seeing our the flesh, or that of others "perform a work of law", so we can believe in God, correct?

Romans 10:4 For Christ is the fulfillment{or, completion, or end} of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.

James 1:6 But let him ask in faith, without any doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed.
