The Law in the Heart
Hebrews 8:10-12
For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, said the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind…


Just as each plant in its growth spontaneously obeys the law put into its inmost parts by God, so the believer who accepts the new covenant promise in its fulness, walks in the power of that inner law. The spirit within frees from the law without.

(Andrew Murray.)
