When A Perfect Man Keeps God's Law Perfectly -- What Does This Mean?
Ask yourself one important question:
When Jesus' life course was complete and he had fully kept the Mosaic Law perfectly, that is kept every law perfectly, completely without sin itself, did this action on Jesus' part, entitle Jesus to everlasting life on earth, or in the heavens...which?
In other words, wasn't Jehovah trying show a perfect man such as Jesus, could indeed KEEP HIS LAW, just as Adam could have done so?
Further, if Jesus did what Adam could have done, then why wouldn't Jesus INHERIT THE EXACT SAME as Adam would have inherited, if he had obeyed Jehovah's Law too? Wouldn't they have inherited the exact same thing, from the hand of God Almighty? And wouldn't that be, ETERNAL LIFE ON EARTH ... Isn't that so? -- See 1 Corinthians 15:45.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Think about it.
You see, one thing we learn about the Mosaic Law Covenant is that, it was designed to produce a faithful priesthood ... ON EARTH. (Exodus 19:5, 6) A special priesthood where all obedient followers of this covenant, would inherit everlasting life, like Adam and & Eve had. Everlasting life, that was free of "sin," "sickness," and "death." This was the point that Paul made at Romans 5:13, 14, which says.
"For UNTIL THE LAW SIN WAS IN THE WORLD, but sin is not charged against anyone when there is no law. Nevertheless, DEATH RULED AS KING FROM ADAM DOWN TO MOSES, even over those who had not sinned after the likeness of the transgression by Adam, who bears a resemblance to him that was to come."
Paul said above, Sin was only "in the world," up to THE LAW, did you see that? Also Paul said above, the powerful age-old enemy of "DEATH," only ... only "ruled as king from ADAM DOWN TO MOSES," ... did you see this? Now, for the big question ... what does this mean?
Do you have the answer to such a question?

And of course thinking back on title of this article, we know Jesus kept this Law, the Mosaic Law Covenant, perfectly, did he not? Therefore, Jesus then, would have been entitled to received exactly what Adam had lost, namely a life free of "sin," "sickness," and "death." All of which would mean, Jesus, had he not been murdered by wicked men of the Jewish nation (using the Roman Authorities and Pontius Pilate), according to Satan's wishes, then ... yes, Jesus would have lived forever on earth? Isn't that so?
Yes, Jesus would have inherited life UPON EARTH ... isn't that correct thinking? Now, that's if he had continued to live on earth, and practiced no sin upon it at all, then wouldn't that mean, Jesus would have completely fulfilled all ... all of the wonderful prophecies about blessed life on earth? Isn't that true? Yes, Jesus would have fully carried out, Grand Blessings of earth wide peace, like what's spoken of in Psalms 72:6-19, Micah 5:4 and Zechariah 9:10, would he not? Then too, wouldn't Jesus have carried out the wonderful blessings establishing true worship on earth, whereby many "nations," yes "mighty nations" even, would finally have decided to worship Jehovah, as promised in prophecy like what's found at Isaiah 2:2-4, Micah 4:1-4 and Zechariah 8:20-22, where "mighty nations" from all over the earth, would "stream" to the Grand "Mountain of Jehovah" and would be fed spiritually, and have "Zion's Law," being promulgated to them, yes ... ETERNALLY ... yes, forever.
And why do we say this?
Again, it would have been so because Jesus, yes Jesus, was ALIVE ON EARTH, dispensing these wonderful blessings upon earth for mankind's benefit. That's why. Yes, Jesus would have been alive as a man, a perfect sin-free man, who had completely fulfilled the Mosaic Law Covenant, and would thus have inherited all of those blessing inherent ... yes, inherent in that particular Law Covenant, the Mosaic Law Covenant.
Think about it...
But, of course, we know this did not happen. No because Jesus, the perfect man who kept the Mosaic Law perfectly ... was MURDERED ... was he not?
Yes, Jesus was murdered, and his perfect, sin-free, sickness-free, death-free life was greatly shortened, courtesy of wicked Satan the Devil. Isn't that so?
Now, with Jesus' life being shortened, taken away from him without RIGHTEOUS CAUSE, what was Jehovah and Jesus to do, with all of those wonderful ... EARTHLY ... yes, earthly blessings?
Well, maybe John 16:13-15 could help us here. Let's consider what it says below:
"However, when that one arrives, the spirit of the truth, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak of his own impulse, but what things he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things coming. That one will glorify me, because HE WILL RECEIVE FROM WHAT IS MINE and will declare it to you. All the things that the Father has are mine. That is why I said HE RECEIVES FROM WHAT IS MINE and declares it to you."
Did you notice above, Jesus said the "spirit of truth," was going to "receive what was mine," namely what rightfully belonged to Jesus, after he faithfully FULFILLED the Mosaic Law? -- Matthew 5:17
Did you notice this?
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Do you have any idea what they could possibly mean?
How the "spirit of truth," could actually ... RECEIVE something this important from Jesus? Do you know actually what this means, for us today?
...Think about it.
