The Law and the "spiritual" system it represents, were
fulfilled when Christ died for our sins (Col. 2:14; Rom.
10:4). That's when the veil in the temple tore from top to
bottom (Mt. 27:51), and that's when the new covenant took
effect (Heb. 9:15ff.). Paul and all believers already had
every spiritual blessing, positionally (Eph. 1), before A.D.
70, and the destruction of Jerusalem contributed nothing to
that, nor was it the "blessed hope" (Titus 2:13; cf. Rom. 8).
--
Christ died for our sins, and God raised Him from the dead.
Rely on this work alone to escape hell and receive eternal
life (Jn. 3:16; 1 Cor. 15:1-3; Eph. 2:8-10; 2 Thess. 1:8-9).
