# Question 5
Here is a CONCLUSION to a sermon based on John 10:35, "The scripture cannot be broken." One of the key points made in the sermon is this:
When the Lord said, "Think not that I am come to destroy the law or the prophets," He sued a word for "destroy" which literally means "to loosen up" or, in reference to the Law, "to find a loophole." In other words, we must not try to excuse ourselves for failing to obey God's Word.

```
The rest of the sermon was in the same vein. Now examine this conclusion:
It would be better if you insist on being rebellious to tell the Lord at this point, "Lord, I hate you. I am going to do what I want, don't interfere," than to give Him a lame excuse that doesn't exist. Oh, may I say to you, God knows what you really mean. He is not being fooled, and the proof of it is, you are not having His blessing. His Word will not be broken, it will break you.

He is not being fooled, and the proof of it is, you are not having His blessing. His Word will not be broken, it will break you.
"But on the other hand, if we study His word sufficiently to the point where we come and say:
Were the whole realm of nature mine That were a present far too small;
Love so amazing, so divine,
Demands my soul, my life, my all'
then we are in for great blessing. The only reason as far as we are concerned, that God refuses to have His law broken is simply to force us from the place of the curse to the place of blessing. For God does not want to judge us, He wants to fellowship with us in the love of Christ.
"So I say to you in the words of Paul: 'I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God.'
