“Those who love Your law have great peace, And nothing causes them to stumble” (Psalm 119:165).
Federal Visionists love verses like this because they think that it is possible for sinners to love the law. However, this is a blatant denial of Total Depravity.
The Reformed faith has always insisted that the law only brings a knowledge of sin (Romans 3:20). Thus, no Christian could ever say that they love the law. That is impossible.
If we look more closely at David’s statement, we notice that he is simply making the comment that those who love the law will have great peace. Well, who has great peace? This can only describe Jesus. Only Jesus loves the law, and only Jesus can have great peace.
Jesus loves the law. We don’t. What’s so hard to understand about this?
