"How so? Briefly, apart from the gospel and outside of Christ, the law is my enemy and condemns me. Why? Because God is my enemy and condemns me. But with the gospel and in Christ, united to him by faith, the law is no longer my enemy but my friend. Why? Because now God is no longer my enemy but my friend, and the law, his willâ€”the law in its moral core, as reflective of his character and of concerns eternally inherent in his own person and so of what pleases himâ€”is now my friendly guide for life in fellowship with God."

The Green Line, the border that existed before 1967, will come into being again.
