Since Cain and Abel, it has been evident that God blesses the obedient and curses the rebellious. This divine principle of reward and punishment has remained throughout the entire history of God’s people. By giving us His laws, God was clear: blessings for those who obey, curses for those who ignore them. The choice is in our hands. The idea that Jesus nullified this principle of His Father is an illusion without any support in the four Gospels. The Gentile who wishes to be saved by Christ must follow the same laws that the Father gave to the chosen nation for His honor and glory. The Father sees the faith and courage of this Gentile and pours out His love on them. The Father unites them with Israel and leads them to the Son for forgiveness and salvation. | Today I am setting before you blessing and curse. You will have blessing if you obey the commandments of the Lord your God, which I am giving you today. Deuteronomy 11:26-27
