Rob Rufus on Law, Grace, and God's Presence

"I believe many Christians miss the connection that the way
Jesus disarmed the principalities and powers and triumphed over them was by cancelling the written rules and regulations that stood opposed to us. Because the devil gets behind the laws and rules for the Christian and accuses you night and day that you're falling short. Now, the law was meant for the Holy Spirit to get behind to bring conviction to unsaved people that they need the Saviour. But
if you go back under law, Satan will get behind the law and bring judgement and accusation and if you believe it, you will not live in the grace of God, faith will be nullified in your heart for the promises of God to be fulfilled and grace will not operate and the presence and power of God will not flow to the degree God wants his presence to flow."
