REDEEMED FROM THE CURSE

Galatians 3:13-14 NKJV "Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”), that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith."

Moses proclaimed the curses for disobedience to the law: Deuteronomy 28:15 NKJV “But it shall come to pass, if you do not obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all His commandments and His statutes which I command you today, that all these curses will come upon you and overtake you:"

Sadly, some teachers of the word still threaten us with curses of the law. The most common one being the curse for not paying tithes found in Malachi 3:9, "You are cursed with a curse, For you have robbed Me, Even this whole nation." That's a very wrong teaching because it is written that Christ Jesus has redeemed us from every curse that came with the law, being made a curse for us when He was crucified on the cross! Hallelujah!

You can encourage believers to do the word, but don't tell them that they will be cursed or that they are cursed! Jesus redeemed us from the curse of the law, that we might receive the blessings of Abraham! We are blessed! Yeah, we were called to inherit blessings! Abraham's blessings are ours, not because of what we have done or not done, but because of what Jesus did for us! Hallelujah!
