2. I know they love God, but they don't understand

4. But Christ makes the Law no longer necessary for those who become acceptable to God by faith.

5. Moses said that a person could become acceptable to God by obeying the Law. He did this when he wrote, “If you want to live, you must do all that the Law commands.”

6. But people whose faith makes them acceptable to God will never ask, “Who will go up to heaven to bring Christ down?”

7. Neither will they ask, “Who will go down into the world of the dead to raise him to life?”
