         Paul’s Letter To The Romans

1 - Or do you not know - for I (Paul) am speaking to those who know the law - that the law is binding on a person only as long as they live? 2 For a married woman is bound by law to her husband while he lives, but if her husband dies she is released from the law of marriage to him. 3 Accordingly, she will be called an adulteress if she lives with another man while her husband is alive. But if her husband dies, she is free from that law. And then if she marries another man she is not committing adultery. 4 In the same way, you too (who have been wed to the Law) have died to “the Law” through the body{/death} of Christ, so that you now belong not to the law (not to the O.T. outward conforming, society preserving, laws of Moses) but to another, to he who has been raised from the dead - in order - that we may bear fruit for God. {Healthy fruit, victorious/overcoming fruit, through our inward conforming union with God through, and with, the fully yielded, fully victorious Son.}
