Contrary Things Cannot Coexist

Mixture of "contrary things" makes an OxyMoron
(<-BC)Law <-one against the other-> Grace(AD->)
(Law)the flesh<-warreth against->the Spirit(God)

The law (as if the lie) was given by Moses,
But grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

Ye are not under the law, but under grace.
If justified by law, you're fallen from grace.

Contrary Things - Law <-vs-> Grace - Contrary Gods

Galatians 5:17

Law <-vs-> Grace are "contrary" things: Death <-vs-> Life

"I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would (see Romans 7 for not doing things ye would & feeling wretched).
But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law".

Of things created/made, two things can notably be "made":
(i) more the child of hell (ii) made perfect by the God of all grace
-
Contrary Things "make" an oxyMORON with a BAD end.
Contrary Things only combine to make one thing: "One Proselyte".
One Proselyte: "twofold": "more the child of hell": Matthew 23:15.

"Either make the tree good or corrupt(evil)": JC.
Allegory: either make the tree grace (good) or law (evil).
Law: "both good and evil" ("corruptible", "mortal"): Paul.
Grace: good only, never evil ("incorruptible", "immortal"): Paul.
The choice is non-violence (grace) or non-existence (law): Gandhi.


Grace (not law) unto you, and peace (not division),
 from God our Father,  and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Comparing spiritual things with spiritual: Laws with Grace: 1Corinthians 2:13
Contrary things, such as law vs grace, should not be mixed, since such mixture of contrary things is as if Life + Death(added) = Dead End. Rather we are biblically exhorted to compare spiritual things with spiritual: plural with singular: law law with grace, which are contrary things to be compared, not mixed:: "comparing spiritual things with spiritual" (1Corinthians 2:13).

1Corinthians 2:13 (Compare, not mix,  contrary things spiritual)
Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth,
but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual
Let us Dare to Compare this God: Law <-vs-> that God: Grace (Contrary Things)
Galatians 5:17 notes law(flesh) and grace(Spirit) are "contrary" things which are "against" one another, after Galatians 4 notes which things are an allegory. So let us dare to compare contrary things such as this God: Law vs that God: Grace as flesh <-vs-> Spirit. To wit: "that God" (the God of all grace) was in "Christ" (the end of the law) reconciling the world (not some only), not law imputing their trespasses unto them: 2Corinthians 5:19. On the contrary Law imputes sin: Romans 4:15; 5:13, is the strength of sin's death sting: 1Corinthians 15:56, the strong man to bind in order to spoil the Mosaic house of sin and death: Matthew 12:29.
Mary Mary, quite Contrary
                                                Mary, Mary, quite contrary,
                                                How does your garden grow?
                                                With silver bells and cockleshells,
                                                And pretty maids all in a row.
Them vs Them who "oppose themselves" are quite contrary
A simple nursery rhyme perhaps, but with biblical and allegoric significance. For we have many allegoric biblical references to those who were double minded: "Moses, Moses" quite contrary; "Abraham, Abraham" quite contrary; "Simon, Simon" quite contrary; Also "Saul, Saul" quite contrary; Even "Jerusalem, Jerusalem" quite contrary. In Galatains 4 we find mention of two Jerusalems: Jerusalem below (also called Babylon): in bondage (law) with her children: them; Compared with Jerusalem above: mother of us all. Jerusalem below is further described as this Agar: Mt Sinai = The Law; Which things are an allegory, and which things are as "contrary" as Life(Grace) or Death(Law), as contrary as Alive or Dead, Blessed or Cursed, Groomed or Gloomed, Uplifted or Depressed, Constructive or Destructive. When compared rather than mixed, Law is as God our Destoyer and Grace is as God our Saviour.
Law worketh wrath is destructive.
Grace is sufficient is constructive.
Contrary Gods: Biblically two Gods are opposed about them.
When looking closer at God in the Bible we find there are either two contrary Gods or one God that is contrary to himself. Further examination in the Bible reveals two contrary Gods opposed about them. One God concludes them all in unbelief and destroys all but eight souls. One God in Christ does not impute their trespasses unto them. Such contrary Gods are as contrary as law vs grace: impute sin or not impute sin. Such are allegorically this God and that God; "that God" being all light and no darkness at all, this God being both light and darkness, but the light of this God being also darkness as noted in Amos 5:18 and Matthew  6:23. So then the day of the LORD is darkness and not light, and another law is not light, but darkness.


The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.
