WHEN YOU ARE SAVED WITHOUT LAW, YOU ARE UNDER THE LAW TO CHRIST, 1CO 9: 21

WHEN YOU ARE SAVED WITHOUT LAW, YOU ARE UNDER THE LAW TO CHRIST, 1CO 9: 21

 

THAT IS WHEN YOU ARE SAVED THROUGH FAITHIN CHRIST , YOU ARE UNDER THE LAW TO CHRIST, Eph 2:5, 8; 1CO 9: 21

 

 

INTRODUCTION

1 Co 9: 21  To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) –{more on this in these writings,-- when you are saved by FAITH AND HIS GRACE, Eph 2:5, 8, YOU WOULD BE UNDER THE LAW TO CHRIST, 1 Co 9: 21}.

First, the gentiles were reconciled to JESUS CHRIST without being judged by law, They did not have law, Ro 2:14, Ro 4:13, 16, Ro 6:14,15, and THEY WERE MADE RIGHTEOUS TO SERVE HIM, Isa 54; 17, Re 11: 2-4, they are to become new men, newness of the spirit, Ro7:6 (so gentiles attained Righteousness without law, Eph 2:5, 8, but by BLOOD OF CHRIST, Eph 2: 13, that means by Baptism unto His death, Ro 6: 3-7)—AFTERWARDS ISRAEL WOULD ATTAIN Righteousness THROUGH GRACE, WHEN THEY BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST, Ac 15: 7-11, through Baptizm unto His death, Ro 6: 3-7, which gives His rigteousness unto Holiness, vs.  19, 22. ). THEN Israel TOO WOULD BE UNDER THE LAW TO CHRIST, until they learn to walk in SPIRIT, and then they would be freed from the law, Gal 5: 25, 18-24.

Rom 10: 4  For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.

Heb 12:1: let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2  looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith,

SO WHEN YOU BELIEVE ALL THINGS OF JESUS CHRIST, AND BE A DOER OF THE WORD, and run the race so that you win the prize, 1Co 9:24, YOU WOULD NOT BE UNDER LAW ANYMORE.

 

LIVING BY SPIRIT (word of God, Jn 6: 63), SHOULD BECOME A WAY OF LIFE IN US, and we should be INCORRUPTIBLE.

1Pe 1:23  having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever,

It is not easy, as Paul too struggled, Rom 7, as discussed in this writings. But when you BECOME OBEDIENT TO THE WORD OF GOD, JESUS CHRIST WOULD HELP YOU, since He is the author and finisher of our faith! We have to depart from iniquity, 2 Tim 2: 19.

 

 

Sin is transgressing the Law, 1Jo 3:4, and not believing in JESUS CHRIST,  Joh 16:9, --and WHEN YOU BELIEVE IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST, YOU ARE TO DEPART FROM SIN, 2 TIM 2: 19.

 

 

 

Law is made for sinners, 1 Tim 1 8-10, for unholy, profane people who does work to fulfill lusts of the nature of Gal 5: 19-21.

Believers should conquer lusts through the cross, Gal 5: 24.

 

 

The LORD, during the LORD’s day, came to purify Levi, that they may offer unto the LORD an offering in righteousness, Mal 3: 1-3, 18, He needs PLEASANT offerings TO HIMSELF from THE MINISTRY, vs. 4, therefore He would judge the sinners, vs. 5,  AND HIS MINISTRY WOULD LEARN TO DISCERN how to be RIGHTEOUS SERVANTS AND not be WICKED SERVANTS that SERVE GOD, VS. 18.

 

 

The LORD’s will is then to create in Israel, A RIGHTEOUS MINISTRY, who WOULD MAKE PLEASANT OFFERINGS TO JESUS CHRIST. And then He would dwell with them, in the tabernacle, Re 21:3.

AND ALL ISRAEL WOULD BE SAVED, ROM 11: 26.

SO WE SHOULD UNDERSTAND THE WILL OF JESUS CHRIST, --HE NEEDS HOLINESS IN HIS DISCIPLES WHO SERVE HIM AS HE IS HOLY!

 

For this purpose, He cleanses the sinful ministry through His  offering of Himself, Ro 6: 3-7, Eph 5:2, through His grace, Joh 1:17.

He saves them from death that would be brought through their sins.

And as Israel would not hear, Acts 28: 28, gentiles were grafted, Rom 11; 17, and they would give the light of JESUS CHRIST to Israel, Lu 2:32  A light to bring revelation to the Gentiles, And the glory of Your people Israel."

WE SHOULD NOTE THAT THE OFFERING FOR REMISSION OF SINS IS ONCE ONLY—HEB 10: 14, 18, AND NO MORE SACRIFICE, VS. 26, 27  But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.

WE SHOULD NOT TEMPT CHRIST, 1Co 10:9.

 

 

1

SAVING FROM DEATH

Mt 1: 21--thou shalt call His name JESUS: for He shall save His people from their sins. ROM 5: 21-sin leads to death,

THEREFORE, JESUS CHRIST SAVES HIS PEOPLE FROM DEATH.

Joh 8:24  "Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins."

ROM 5: 21-as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

WHEN ONE IS SAVED THROUGH GRACE, --YOU HAVE TO WALK IN NEWNESS OF LIFE, Ro 6:4, IF WE DO NOT WALK IN NEWNESS OF LIFE, that is if we sin again wilfully, and AS THERE IS NO MORE SACRIFICE FOR SIN, HEB 10: 26, we COULD FAIL, AND BE PUNISHED, HEB 10: 28,29.

 

When you understand those vss. sinners SHOULD COME TO REPENTANCE, Lu 5:32  "I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance." 2Pe 3:9  The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.

 

 

IT IS ONLY THROUGH JESUS CHRIST THAT ONE COULD BE SAVED.

Joh 16: 8  "And when He has come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: 9  "of sin, because they do not believe in Me;

HE WOULD SHOW SINS, TO TAKE AWAY SINS-- Joh 8:12  Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, "I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life." Ac 26:18  ‘to open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.’

 

UNLESS YOU understand, and BELIEVE HIS DEATH ON THE CROSS, HIS POWER IN THE CROSS AND RESURRECTION , through which you get newness of life, and HIS SPIRIT OF LIFE THAT COULD MAKE YOU FREE FROM SIN, Israel CANNOT BE SAVED .

Isa 16:5 And in mercy shall the throne be established:---- hasting righteousness.

WE KNOW THAT JESUS CHRIST HAS THE POWER TO SAVE ALL ISRAEL—ROM 11: 26. that means the LORD would make Israel understand ALL ABOUT JESUS CHRIST!

RECONCILED THROUGH HIS SACRIFICE ---AND BE SAVED BY HIS LIFE—

Ro 5:10  For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.

Rom 8: 2  For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

THEREFORE THERE IS THE LAW OF THE SPIRIT OF LIFE IN JESUS CHRIST---AND THAT LAW HAS TO BE FOLLOWED BY THE BELIEVERS and you would be made free from thw law of sin and death!

 

 

 Mt 1: 21-- He shall save His people from their sins.

THEREFORE HIS PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE HIM AND THE LAW OF SPIRIT OF LIFE IN HIM, would be made free from the LAW OF SIN AND DEATH--

 Jn 16:13  "- when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth

 

WHEN YOU BELIEVE IN HIS NAME—

2Ti 2:19- Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

IF YOU BELIEVE HIS NAME—DEPART FROM INIQUITY!

Ro 5:21  so that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

 

That means--

THROUGH GRACE YOU WOULD BE RECONCILED BY HIS SACRIFICE, you would be made righteous, AND THROUGH following HIS LIFE GIVING SPIRITUAL LAW (spiritual words of eternal life), you WOULD BE GIVEN ETERNAL LIFE.

Joh 6: 68  But Simon Peter answered Him, "Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.---69-"Also we have come to believe and know that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God."

WE ARE TO LIVE BY EVERY WORD OF GOD, Mt 4:4, Lu 4:4

THE BELIEVERS who have faith in JESUS CHRIST ARE UNDER THE LAW TO CHRIST--

1 Co 9: 21  To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.---THEN, when you are saved without law, YOU SHOULD STUDY THE LAW TO CHRIST, TO BE A DOER OF HIS LAW!

in vs. 20-27 in this chapter, PAUL EXPLAINS HOW HE SERVES IN A SERVANT ATTITUDE, TO EXPLAIN THINGS FOR Jews who are under the law, and for gentiles who were saved without law, BUT WHO WOULD BE UNDER THE LAW TO CHRIST. Paul wrote THAT HE RUNS THE RACE TO WIN THE NON -PERISHABLE CROWN, and that HE runs not as beating the air,--but BRINGING HIS BODY INTO SUBJECTION TO THE LAW OF CHRIST, SO THAT he would not become DISQUALIFIED!

Paul was very careful to fulfill LORD’s Law of spirit of life—

1Co 6:12  All things are lawful for me, but all things are not helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

Although some things are not helpful to him—he saw that HE FULFILLS THE SPIRITUAL LAW of JESUS CHRIST.

And Paul said,

1Co 4:16  Therefore I urge you, imitate me.

1Co 11:1  Imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ.

Paul is the minister to gentiles, Rom 15: 16, therefore, gentiles should be RUNNING THIS RACE TO WIN THE NON-PERISHABLE CROWN!

 

Rom 8: 1; There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

2  For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

2 Cor 3: 17  Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

Rom 10: 4  For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.

SO LIBERTY COMES WHEN YOU WALK AFTER THE SPIRIT!

THEN YOU CANNOT BE CONDEMNED!

 

4

 

WHEN JESUS CHRIST WOULD HAVE FINISHED HIS SHORT WORK, TO GIVE LIFE TO HIS PEOPLE, SAVING THEM FROM DEATH, THE END RESULT OF HIS LAW WOULD BE APPARENT-therefore it is HE WHO IS MAKING HIS PEOPLE WALK AFTER HIS SPIRIT.---that is we are to be LED BY SPIRIT, BE DOERS OF THE WORDS!

Rom 8: 4  That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

When you learn to walk in spirit, you would not be under law-Gal 5: 25, 18.

 

 

PAUL is THE MINISTER OF GENTILES-- Ro 15:16  That I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable,being sanctified by the Holy Ghost.

SINCE IT IS GENTILES WHO SERVE THE LORD NOW, PAUL TEACHES GENTILES TO SERVE IN HOLINESS, SO THAT THEIR OFFERINGS ARE ACCEPTED BY THE LORD!

Gentiles have to be very careful!

 

 

PAUL WAS AN EXAMPLE TO US, GENTILES,---

1Co 4:16  Therefore I urge you, imitate me.

Paul said--1Co 11:1  Imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ.

And PAUL WAS LAWFUL -- 1Co 6:12 

 

AND THOSE WHO DO HIS COMMANDMENTS WOULD ENTER NEW JERUSALEM.

Re 22:14  Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city.

All belivers’ goal is to ENTER NEW JERUSALEM—then we ARE TO DO HIS COMMANDMENTS, WE ARE TO BE LAWFUL.

YOU COULD FALL IF YOU THINK YOU KNOW EVERYTHING

HIGH MINDED COULD FALL—1 Co 10: 12- Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall. ALL OF US SHOULD EXAMINE THE WORD OF GOD THOROUGHLY, VERY HUMBLY—the teachings of Paul should be examined to EXERCISE THEM, to practice them as JESUS CHRIST Himself taught Paul. If the tempter tempts us, our labour could be in vain, 1 Thes 3: 5.

IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO DOUBLE CHECK THE WORD OF GOD, TO BE SURE THAT WE ARE WALKING by FAITH, and according to the SPIRIT, 2Co 5:7  For we walk by faith,  Gal 5: 25 – If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

 

 

 

WE ARE TO BE OBEDIENT TO THE FAITH

AND NOT SIN--

Paul preached the gospel of grace, Ac 20:24, word of His grace would build believers, to receive inheritance, Ac 20:32, we receive GRACE to the OBEDIENCE TO THE FAITH, Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; Ro 4:16,

sin hath reigned unto death, BUT grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our LORD, Ro 5:21, THEREFORE WE ARE TO DISCONTINUE IN SIN, Ro 6:1, 14,

What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid-- Ro 6:15 .

 

Paul struggled with law, Rom 7, but he conquered to be LAWFUL, 1Co 6:12, Paul ran the race, keeping the FAITH, by fighting THE GOOD FIGHT, 2Ti 4:7, Paul ran this race with JOY to testify the gospel of grace, Ac 20:24,  Paul the minister of gentiles, Rom 15: 16, through his ministry to us, wanted the gentiles to make acceptable offerings, Rom 15: 16, and

we are adominished by Paul to run the race, to WIN THE PRIZE,  1Co 9:24. and you need patience to run this race, Heb 12:1, AS ONE HAS TO UNDERSTAND THE SPIRITUAL THINGS OF THE LORD ----TO DO THEM, Jas 1:22.

THE LORD CHASTENS WHEN WE DO NOT WALK IN SPIRIT--Heb 12:11  Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.

THEREFORE WHEN WE UNDERSTAND OUR ERRORS, WE SHOULD BE HUMBLE TO BE CORRECTED BY JESUS CHRIST.

 

 

Read “example of Paul”---http://www.restoringcaptivity.com

 

By one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified, Heb 10: 14, sins and iniquities will not be remembered by JESUS CHRIST after He perfects us, BUT---Heb 10: 17, where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin, vs. 18, if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, vs. 26, But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries vs. 27, and a greater punishment, vs. 28,29.

 

6

 

Therefore IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT WE CANNOT KEEP SINNING AFTER WE are forgiven AND AFTER  WE RECEIVE THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH!

 

NOW WE COULD UNDERSTAND WHY THE LORD DID NOT IMPUTE SIN TO GENTILES—since they hear Him, Acts 28: 28, the LORD purified them to have His Righteousness, to SERVE HIM IN HIS Righteousness --Rom 4: 8, Rom 5: 13, 20, Rom 11: 5, Rom 9: 30, Isa 54: 17.

SINCE THE GENTILES HEAR HIM,Acts 28: 28, PAUL WAS MADE TO BE THEIR MINISTER, ROM 15: 16, and WHILE THE LORD WAS THE MEDIATOR OF THE COVENANT, AND THE HIGH PRIEST OF MELCHISEDEC ORDER, gentiles serve Him in His Righteousness, Heb 10: 21, Isa 56: 4-7, Isa 54: 17, Zec 12: 8-10.

 

The LORD’s blood, HIS SACRIFICE takes away sins, Heb 10: 4, 10, 14, so that the second covenant could be established, vs. 9, the FIRST one would BE OBSOLETE, Heb 8:13—IT WILL VANISH AWAY!

 

BECAUSE IT VANISHES AWAY, SPIRITUAL Israel HAVE TO GET READY TO MAKE THE NEW COVENANT!

THEY HAVE TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THEIR SAVIOUR WILLS TO DO!

 

They should not be DOING THEIR OWN THINGS---but PREPARE TO MAKE THE NEW COVENANT WITH JESUS CHRIST!

 

SO WHEN THE NEW COVENANT IS MADE WITH Israel—

Heb 10: 16  "This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the LORD: I will put My laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them,"

17  then He adds, "Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more."

This covenant would be forever—Isa 59: 21

 

7

 

And just as gentiles entered the Holiest, spiritual Israel too would ENTER THE HOLIEST—Heb 10: 19,BY A NEW AND A LIVING WAY

 

The LORD puts His laws to their hearts and will write in their minds---THAT IS TO DO THEM!

---TO BE LAWFUL!

Eze 33:19  "But when the wicked turns from his wickedness and does what is lawful and right, he shall live because of it.

 

Just as Paul was LAWFUL-- 1Co 6:12  All things are lawful for me, but all things are not helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

 

PAUL, after he was forgiven and taught by JESUS CHRIST, OVERCAME THE LAWS OF JESUS CHRIST STRUGGLING HARD, as mentioned above, HE WON HIS RACE. Therefore THE LAW CANNOT JUDGE HIM AS A WRONG DOER! HE CANNOT BE BROUGHT UNDER ANY LAW! He had EXERCISED those laws of JESUS CHRIST! THEREFORE TO HIM CHRIST WAS THE END OF THE LAW FOR Righteousness! HE GOT LIBERTY.

HE BECAME RIGHTEOUS THROUGH KEEPING THE FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST, BY DOING WHAT THE LORD COMMANDED TO DO—the commandments of JESUS CHRIST are found in the word of God. And the word of God is THE SPIRIT OF JESUS CHRIST-JN 6: 63—

63  It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

68  Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.

 

Since Paul is minister to gentiles, they too preach gospel of JESUS CHRIST, Rom 15: 16, 19.

 

THEREFORE we preach that AFTER BEILIEVERS ARE FORGIVEN BY JESUS CHRIST THEY ARE LED TO ETERNAL LIFE, THROUGH THE SPIRIT, which is THE WORD OF JESUS CHRIST, Then, JESUS CHRIST IS THE END OF THE LAW FOR Righteousness TO BELIEVERS—

 

8

 

Paul preached JESUS CHRIST and HIM CRUCIFED-- 1Co 2:2

Just as HIS BLOOD AND HIS RESURRECTION are connected to the cross, THE HELPER GIVEN AFTER RESURRECTION, the Holy spirit too is given after His death.

Holy spirit leads into all truth, --Joh 15:26, SPIRIT IS THE LORD’S, Joh 16:13,14, when the LORD departed the helper was given, Joh 16:7, the helper is the Holy spirit, the comforter forever, Joh 14:26, Joh 14:16, Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, Joh 14:17,

AND IF ONE DOES NOT BELIEVE ALL WORDS OF GOD ABOUT THE THINGS OF JESUS CHRIST, YOU MAKE GOD A LIAR, 1Jo 5:10

 

Please read all articles relating to the CROSS OF JESUS CHRIST IN—

http://www.restoringcaptivity.com

 

 

ONE HAS TO BELIEVE THE RESURRECTED CHRIST

ROM 10: 4- For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.—FOR THE WORD OF FAITH SAYS—VS. 8  But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;

 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

10  For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

11  For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on Him shall not be ashamed.

 

Vs. 9—says of JESUS CHRIST and HIM CRUCIFIED---raised after death on the cross---THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT PAUL was determined to PREACH—1 Co 2: 2—

UNLESS WE GET THE BLESSING FROM HIS DEATH, WE CANNOT HAVE THE BENEFITS OF HIS SACRIFICE!---that is why we are to have Baptizm unto His death, Ro 6: 3-7, which gives His rigteousness, unto holiness, vs. 19, 22.

 

 

BECAUSE ALL SPIRITUAL ISRAEL WOULD BE SAVED, Rom 11: 26, IT MEANS THAT THE LORD WOULD OPEN THEIR HEARTS TO BELIEVE HIM, as THEIR SAVIOUR!

May that day come soon! Amen.

 

YOU HAVE TO CONFESS THAT JESUS CHRIST IS YOUR SAVIOUR, WHO SACRIFICED HIMSELF FOR YOUR SINS ON THE CROSS BUT that HE IS EVER LIVING SO THAT HE COULD RAISE YOU FROM BEING SPIRITUALLY DEAD AND ----

IN YOUR HEART you have to BELIEVE HIS LAWS UNTO Righteousness, TO DO THEM through which YOU WOULD BECOME LAWFUL, and then IT WOULD BE YOUR NEW WAY OF LIVING, so that you CANNOT BE JUDGED BY THE POWERS OF THE LAW!

 

 

9

 

AN EXAMPLE HOW YOU COULD BE LAWFUL AND HOW YOU CANNOT BE JUDGED IS GIVEN BELOW—

 

THE EXAMPLE-

IF A COUNTRY has a rule for motorists to drive their vehicles on the LEFT HAND SIDE OF THE ROAD,

A motorist could not be found fault if he drives ALWAYS on the left hand side!

As long as he is a driver, he would drive on the left hand side, HONOURING THE COUNTRY LAW!

Therefore, HE HAD PRACTICED, AND IT HAD BECOME A WAY OF LIFE IN HIM, and at anytime, THE COUNTRY LAW CANNOT JUDGE HIM for breaking that RULE!

 

HE HAD BECOME LAWFUL!

 

Therefore the COUNTRY LAW TO PUNISH ONE WHO DOES NOT DRIVE ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE, HAS NO BEARING ON HIM---HE IS NOT PUNISHABLE UNDER THAT LAW!

THAT LAW HAS NO POWER TO PUNISH HIM!

 

That is how we would be not under law, if we walk according to the spirit, Gal 5: 25, 18.

25  If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

18  But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

 

IF THE MOTORIST WENT ON THE WRONG SIDE, HE IS PUNISHABLE.

 

Just as the left hand side and the right hand side in that example,

 

THE LORD HAD DIRECTED US TO WALK IN THE SPIRIT AND NOT IN THE FLESH IN GAL 5.

GAL 5: 22-23, 25, 16,  DIRECTS US TO WALK IN SPIRIT.

GAL 5: 19-21, DIRECTS US NOT TO WALK IN THE FLESH, AND NOT TO FULFILL THE LUSTS OF THE FLESH, VS. 16.

 

Gal 5: 22-23 is lawful and we should walk in them,

Gal 5: 19-21 is prohibited for believers, and we should NOT WALK IN THEM.

 

IF Gal 5: 19-21 is done, IT WOULD BECOME NAKED TO THE JUDGE, JESUS CHRIST, AND YOU WOULD NOT INHERIT Kingdom of God, VS. 21.

DISCERNING SPIRITUAL FRUITS FROM LUSTS OF THE FLESH

109.

THE LORD PRUNES THE FRUIT BEARING TREE

http://www.restoringcaptivity.com

 

Now spiritual Israel is admonished TO ARISE—

Isa 60: 1 - Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.

 

3  And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.

 

THE GENTILES WHO BECOME THE SPIRITUAL LIGHT TO SPIRITUAL ISRAEL, BRINGS FORTH THE PRAISES OF JESUS CHRIST, VS. 6

 

THE LORD IS BEAUTIFYING HIS SANCTUARY, Isa 60: 13,

HE WILL BE KING OF ALL THE EARTH, HE IS THE ONLY LORD, Zec 14:  9

 

HIS WILL TO MAKE A MINISTRY IN Righteousness, MAL 3: 18 WOULD BE ACCOMPLISHED SOON, AND PEOPLE OF THE LORD WOULD LEARN TO WALK IN HIS SPIRIT, AND WOULD LEARN TO WORSHIP HIM IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH, Joh 4:23,

Joh 4:24  "God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth."

 

11

 

SINCE CHRIST IS THE END OF THE LAW FOR Righteousness, WHEN HIS SERVANTS LEARN HIS WAY OF LIFE, PRACTISING HIS WAYS, the law would not judge such people.

 

HIS WAY OF LIFE WOULD GIVE LIBERTY FROM THE LAW,

WHEN HIS PEOPLE WALK IN SPIRIT OF LIFE, THEY WOULD BE FREED FROM LAW, GAL 5: 18,

FREED FROM THE LAW OF SIN AND DEATH!

Ro 8:2  For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.

 

THIS IS WHY THE LORD JESUS CHRIST IS TAKING AWAY SINS—

 

WE SHOULD ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT GRACE WAS GIVEN TO BE OBEDIENT TO HIM—

Rom 1: 5- we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for His name:

6  Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ:

His power is according TO HOLINESS—VS. 4 4  And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:

 

SO WE ARE TO BE OBEDIENT TO HIS HOLINESS—in other words--WE ARE TO BE HOLY!

1Pe 1:15  but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct,

1Pe 1:16  because it is written, "Be holy, for I am holy."

Eph 1:4  just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love,

 

THE LORD POURED HIS SPIRIT, on witnesses, Re 11; 2-4, ACTS 2: 17, 18, AND THROUGH their serving HIM, HE GAVE KNOWLEDGE TO SPIRITUAL ISRAEL, as knowledge cover the sea,- Hab 2:14, fallen church of Israel, considered as sea, Lamentation 2;13.

 

This knowledge of JESUS CHRIST is given to make them holy, and acceptable to SERVE HIM, Mal 3: 3, 18, Zec 14:20

 

12

 

TO MAKE US HOLY HE TAKES AWAY SINS--

When Israel believes in JESUS CHRIST they would be joined BACK TO THE OLIVE TREE, Rom 11: 24-26

 

Vs. 26-- so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: "The Deliverer will come out of Zion, And He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;

27  For this is My covenant with them, When I take away their sins."

LESSONS TO ISRAEL FROM Romans CHAPTER ELEVEN

http://www.restoringcaptivity.com

 

 

By removing SINS OF ISRAEL, He would make them godly, and holy!

 

WE ARE ALL SINNERS—

Acts 17: 30  And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:

Even the first born offspring (gentiles) have to repent—vs. 29-- we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man’s device.

 

THE FIRST BORN SEED, ROM 9: 29  And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed,--30- the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith.

Isa 14: 30- And the firstborn of the poor shall feed,

SO IF WE GENTILES HAD NOT UNDERSTOOD ALL THE WORDS OF JESUS CHRIST, AND WALKED AGAINST THE SPIRIT, WE SHOULD HUMBLY REPENT!

 

IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE WORD OF GOD PROPERLY YOU COULD SIN, THAT IS WHY EVERY ONE HAS TO BE CAREFUL HOW HE BUILDS-

1 Cor 3: 10- According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise master builder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.

 

13

 

EACH ONE HAS TO CAREFULLY UNDERSTAND THE WORD OF GOD TO BUILD UPON THE FOUNDATION LAID BY JESUS CHRIST.

The ministers of Christ would be judged by the LORD when giving rewards—1 Cor 3: 14-21, 1 Cor 4: 1-5.

 

 

JESUS CHRIST TAKES AWAY SINS.

WHEN JESUS CHRIST IS SINLESS, HE REQUIRES SINLESS PEOPLE TO BE WITH HIM IN HIS TABERNALCE TO SERVE HIM. That is why the LORD claeansed the gentiles to serve Him in His Righteousness, Isa 54: 17, when the gentiles were treading Israel, Re 11: 2.

JESUS CHRIST manifested to take away our sins and in Him there is NO SIN, 1 Jn 3.5

He made him to be sin for us although He did not sin 2 Cor 5.21, Heb 4.15,

He the Lamb of God who takes away sins, Jn 1 .29

He was numbered with sinners, He bore the sins of many, made intercessions for sinners, Isa 53.12,

 

 

AT THE END OF THE AGE HE APPEARED TO PUT AWAY SIN, Heb 9.26,

He does a short work at the end of the age, Rom 9.28, He left the gentiles as a seed, Rom 9.29.

These gentiles were taught, Acts 28.28, at the end of the age His spirit was poured upon gentiles, Acts 2.18, they were grafted to the olive tree, Rom 11.17,

They are vessels of mercy, Rom 9.23, thru grace they were pardoned, Rom 5,20,21; Rom 6.1

THEY ARE TAUGHT NOT TO SIN, Rom 6.1-2 so that the offering of the gentiles would be acceptable—Rom 15.16.

WHEN THE LORD CLEANSES THRU GRACE

(THESE ARE LESSONS TO ALL)

 

Learning from Rom 6.

1-2-we should not continue in sin thinking we have abundance of grace.

Vs. 2-3 We died to sin and we cannot die to sin any longer. We died to sin when we were baptized unto His death.

Vs. 4-5- We should walk in the newness of life

vs.6—our old man was crucified with Him, so we should not be slaves of sins.

Vs. 7-8-We died with Christ, freed from sin and we shall also live with Him, (vs. 4 we should walk in newness of life)

Vs. 9-11-Like JESUS CHRIST we should consider OURSELVES DEAD TO SIN BUT ALIVE TO GOD.

Vs. 12-therefore SINS SHOULD NOT REIGN IN OUR BODY TO OBEY IT’S LUSTS—(Gal 5.19-21 should not be present in our mortal bodies)

Vs. 13- we should present ourselves to God as instruments of righteousness ( the LORD needs such people to serve Him, Mal 3.18)

Vs. 13-16- We were freed from Mosaic law cleansing thru grace to be obedient servants of the LORD. Therefore we should not sin but should be obedient to the commandments of JESUS CHRIST which should lead us to Righteousness

Vs. 17-18- We should thank God for setting us free from sin and turning our hearts to obey the doctrine of JESUS CHRIST

Vs. 19- Just as we had been sinning as old men leading to more lawlessness now we are to be slaves of Righteousness for HOLINESS.

VS. 20-21- As old men the fruits of the lust we had (Gal 5.19-21) were leading us to death. We are to be ashamed of such.

Vs. 22-23- Now that we are set free from sin we are to produce our fruits to HOLINESS(producing Gal 5.22-23) and the end everlasting life. For we do not want the wages of sin which is death, but we should be thankful for the gift of God which is eternal life.

 

15

 

Rom 7.6- we should serve in the newness of the spirit---

Ro 8:2  For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.

Rom 7.14-24- we see that Paul struggled with the law. In vs. 7-- he learnt sins thru the laws.

In Rom 8.1-2 –THE LAW OF THE SPIRIT OF LIFE IN JESUS CHRIST MADE PAUL FREE FROM THE LAW OF SIN AND DEATH. This happened when he learnt to walk according to the spirit and such would not be condemned---vs. 3-4--- WE SEE JESUS CHRIST CONDEMNED SIN IN THE FLESH AND THEREFORE WHEN THE LORD COULD NOT JUSTIFY THE BELIEVERS, HE JUSTIFIED THEM THRU HIS GRACE, TAKING THEIR SINS UPON HIM.

 

 

16

 

ROM 8.4—Now that the LORD has taken away the sins of believers,-- the Righteouss requirement of the law would be fulfilled when you walk according to the spirit ( this is the reason why the LORD sent the holy Spirit as a helper)

Vs. 5—those who walk according to the spirit set their mind on spiritual things.

Vs. 6-8- After the LORD  cleansed us ----if you still go after the flesh being carnally minded, YOU CANNOT PLEASE GOD BUT THE RESULT WOULD BE DEATH. CARNAL MIND WOULD BE DISOBEDIENT TO THE LAW OF GOD AND ENMITY AGAINST GOD.

VS. 9—After the LORD cleanses us, we are not in flesh, indeed it is the spirit of JESUS CHRIST that dwells in us. If anyone does not have the spirit of Christ he IS NOT HIS.

Vs. 13- If we live according to the spirit of JESUS CHRIST we will live for ever.

Vs. 14- WE ARE SONS OF GOD IF WE ARE LED BY HIS SPIRIT.

VS. 23- The first fruits of the spirit egerly wait for the adoption, the redemtion of our bodies.

Vs. 24-25- We were saved with that hope and we wait for it with perseverance. What you could see is not hope, therefore we should not hope for what we see.

Vs. 35-39-- If we love Christ and if He dwells in us nothing can separate us from His love.

 

17

 

 

Rom 9.24—30—We see that the LORD has called the gentiles for a short work because otherwise Israel would have become as Sodom.

Vs. 31- 32- They did not understand JESUS CHRIST’S grace and persued to become Righteousnes thru the LAW,  and because no one can keep the law to the jot, Israel could not attain to the law of Righteousness --- in vs. 30 we see that the gentiles attained the Righteousness of faith. Therefore we see that the gentiles had faith in JESUS CHRIST  and believed in JESUS CHRIST. They believe in the saving power of JESUS CHRIST. Therefore Christ became the end of the law to the believinggentiles ( believers should be obedient to JESUS CHRIST as shown)

 

 

Rom 10.11-13—Whoever believes on JESUS CHRIST whether Jews or greek will be saved.

Vs. 14-15-Israel who did not believe in JESUS CHRIST need a preacher to preach the gospel of peace, the light of JESUS CHRIST, therefore the first fruits, Isa 14: 30, the gentiles brings the light of JESUS CHRIST to spiritual Israel, Isa 60.3, Rom 19.20 ( the LORD provoked Israel to jealousy by the gentiles, because Israel was disobedient (Vs. 21)

Rom 10-17-So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

THEREFORE THE LORD MADE THE GENTILES TO EXPLAIN HIS GOSPEL TO ISRAEL.

ROM 11.1- God has not cast away Israel but 11.26 ALL Israel WILL BE SAVED ( please read the writings of the article of Rom 11)

 

18

 

Again, as we gentiles are to serve JESUS CHRIST in the House of God, Is 56.4-7 we were cleansed, and paul became our minister, Rom 15.16.

When we are under grace we are not to sin, Rom 6.15, for the LORD appeared a second time APART FROM SIN FOR SALVATION,  Heb 9.28. Then His servants too should serve Him apart from sin, gentiles should not be sinning, Rom 6.14, WHEN GRACE IS GIVEN WE ARE TO BE OBEDIENT TO JESUS CHRIST , Rom 1.5, we are to be imitators of JESUS CHRIST and walk in love, Eph 5.1-2—we are to honour the commandments of the EVERLASTING GOD, OBEDIENCE TO THE FAITH Rom 16.26, we are to become perfect men, to the measure and stature of the fulness of JESUS CHRIST , Eph 4.13.

Those are a few spiritual requirements OF THE BELIEVING GENTILES WHEN THEY SERVE THE LORD. THEREFORE IN ROM 10 WE SAW THAT THE LORD CALLED THE GENTILES TO TAKE THE GOSPEL OF PEACE TO ISRAEL ( Israel rejected the true God JESUS CHRIST and they believe two God’s when everyting is done by JESUS CHRIST for Himself- The LORD has shown all these things in His short work)

 

SO ISRAEL AND BELIEVERS SHOULD LEARN--

Sin is transgressing the Law, 1Jo 3:4, and not believing in JESUS CHRIST,  Joh 16:9, --and WHEN YOU BELIEVE IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST, YOU ARE TO DEPART FROM SIN, 2 TIM 2: 19.

if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His, Ro 8:9-

 

19

 

ISRAEL SHOULD BELIEVE IN THEIR MAKER AND THEIR HUSBAND, Isa 54:5  For thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called.—HE IS THE ONLY GOD OF WHOLE EARTH!

ISRAEL SHOULD BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST WHO WAS MANIFEST TO TAKEAWAY SINS THRU HIS GRACE, 1 Jn 3.5, Jn 1.29, Heb 9.26

 

 

ISRAEL HAS TO BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST,

THEIR SAVIOUR, TO BE SAVED,

 Joh 20:31 , 1Jo 5:13, Isa 43:3  For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour:-- Isa 43:11  I, even I, am the LORD; and beside Me there is no saviour.-, Isa 45:21- there is no God else beside Me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside Me.- Isa 49:26- I the LORD am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.--- Ho 13:4 ---- thou shalt know no god but Me: for there is no saviour beside Me.--- Lu 2:11  For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.---- Ph. 3:20  For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:------ 1Ti 4:10  For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.

2Ti 1:10  But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, ----       

 

 

WE SHOULD ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT GRACE WAS GIVEN TO BE OBEDIENT TO HIM—

 

Rom 1: 5- we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for His name:

6  Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ:

His power is according TO HOLINESS—VS. 4 4  And declared to be the Son of God with power,according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:

 

1 Co 9: 21  --- under the law to Christ,)—THEN WE HAVE TO KEEP THE LAW OF JESUS CHRIST!

 

SO WE ARE TO BE OBEDIENT TO HIS HOLINESS—in other words--WE ARE TO BE HOLY!

1Pe 1:15  but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct,

 

20

 

IF WE TRANSGRESS AGAINST THE SPIRIT OF HOLINESS, THAT MEANS WE ARE NOT HONOURING JESUS CHRIST—IT COULD MEAN THAT WE DO NOT BELIEVE HIM AS OUR SAVIOUR!

Then if we do not care for Him or His laws of love, IT IS SIN.

THEREFORE WE SHOULD BE OBEDIENT TO WALK IN THE NEWNESS OF LIFE, --LIVE IN SPIRIT AND WALK IN SPIRIT, Gal 5: 25.

 

JESUS CHRIST SHOULD BE FORMED IN US, Phi. 3; 20-21, HIS WAYS OF LIFE SHOULD BE EVIDENT IN YOU.

 

We are to be confirmed to the standards of JESUS CHRIST, to be with Him forever.

 

THANKSGIVING AND ALL PRAISE BE TO HIM FOREVER.
