way; the blood that was shed broke the curse. Man was redeemed
by the ultimate price of God’s own son.
The “work” of delivering man and re-establishing the status change,
was done. Man is no longer under the curse of poverty! The curse
that plagued the land was broken forever and man has been given
another chance to prosper and dominate the earth just as it was
initially spoken by God. Christ then becomes a curse for us that we
may be redeemed from the grip and the effects thereof. It is said of
Him as follows:-
“Christ purchased our freedom [redeeming us] from the curse
(doom) of the Law [and its condemnation] by [Himself] becoming
a curse for us, for it is written [in the scriptures], cursed is everyone
who hangs on the tree (is crucified); Galatians 3:13 [AMPC]
The original truths will then make this dispensation of faith as
opposed to works. We are no longer under the curse. Jesus Christ
has perfected everything and we are no longer to earn anything,
except for what Christ has made available through faith in the
finished works. This however, does not negate the role of man in
bringing the redemption into play.
The fact that the curse is lifted, does not then mean that there is
no need to work. What this denotes is that the ground has been
cleared and man is to exercise his rightful power; to have dominion
and subdue the earth, yield every good thing and have everything in
abundance as the limitations had since been removed.
