Rom. 7 EXPLAINS HOW GOD’S PEOPLE FALL FROM FAITH

HERE IS Rom. 7: 4 EXPLAINED---Rom. 7: 4---Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to Him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.

1.      Rom. 7: 4--dead to the law by the body of Christ (speaks of those who get baptizm unto His death, Rom. 6: 3-7, to serve Him in Righteousness unto holiness, vv. 19, 22.

2.      They are married to JESUS CHRIST to produce fruit unto God.

GENTILES EXPERIENCED Rom. 7: 4—through His blood, Eph. 2: 13—they were purified by His blood, that means they got the blessing of His death and resurrection, Rom. 6; 3-7------in Eph. 2: 15 we see-----abolished in His flesh-- even the law of commandments, therefore,

Rom. 7: 6-- But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.

SO Rom. 7: 4 and Eph. 2: 15 SHOWS THAT gentiles WERE REMOVED FROM THE CURSE OF THE OLD LAW—to serve in NEWNESS of SPIRIT--and in Heb. 7: 12—we have a changed law to follow, ----IT IS SERVING IN NEWNESS OF SPIRIT, AS WRITTEN IN Rom. 7: 6---

Gentiles were made MINISTRY OF SPIRIT, ministry of Righteousness, 2 Co 3; 6-9, they were given SPIRIT as a guarantee, 2 Co 1: 22. They are to work with SPIRIT, which is WORDS OF LIFE, Jo 6: 63.---now we gentiles are to SHOW THIS LIGHT OF JESUS CHRIST TO ISRAEL, Isa. 60: 1-3. THAT IS WHAT WE ARE DOING.

LOOK AT THE LAW OF SPIRIT---SEEN IN Rom. 7: 4—

Rom. 7: 4----- married to another, even to Him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.

“We are to bring forth fruit unto God”, Rom. 7: 4---

WHAT FRUITS SHOULD WE MAKE---—now we should know that LORD’s way is in a Sanctuary, Ps. 77: 13, ----He is creating the Eternal covenant of Peace with ISRAEL His chosen, and establishing His Tabernacle in the midst of ISRAEL, Eze. 37: 24-28, writing laws in minds and hearts, Jer 31:33, He sent them into captivity when they erred, and would certainly bring them back, Jer. 33: 24—26, LORD IS ZEALOUS for Zion, Judah, Zec 1: 14-17----and that LORD leads ISRAEL with supplications, Jer. 31: 9, and LORD had PURPOSED US TO SERVE AS David SERVING IN THE SUPPLICATIONS, Zec 12: 8-10, WE SHOULD BE PERFORMING ---David’s ways, 1 Chr 23: 30-31---MORNING and EVENING---DAILY---CONTINUAL---Sabbaths, New Moon days which are BEGINNINGS OF MONTHS, which are to be better than Sabbaths, Nu 28: 9-14, (more offerings to be done on beginnings of months), holy days---FASTS OF Zec 8: 19, PRAYERS---and so on---as LORD IS REVIVING David’s throne as in the OLD DAYS, Amos 9: 11.

We also have to produce fruits of the spirits among fellow brethren---they are—Gal 5: 22-23--- the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

23 -Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

24 -And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

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

26- Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

And Gal 3: 1-- Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.--2- Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.

So we see from Gal 5: 22-26---that IF WE PRODUCE FRUITS OF SPIRIT---we are not under any law, as we have love towards one another, walking in SPIRIT, and NOT DOING ANY HARM TO BRETHREN!----AND Gal 6: 1-2---SHOWS HOW SPIRITUAL PEOPLE HAVE TO RESTORE any who had fallen WITH MEEKNESS----

WITH SPIRIT, with WORDS OF LIFE, Jo 6: 63, WE SHOULD RESTORE THESE ONES WHO HAD FALLEN!—whether gentile or ISRAEL, all believers could fall, then those who understand spiritual things should help others in meekness!

Rom. 7: 13—Rom. 8: 9

Rom. 7: 13--sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful. (That is SINNING with THE KNOWLEDGE of commandment, becomes

 EXCEEDING SINFUL).

Eph 2:5- Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) -6-- And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:---Eph 2:8  For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:---THAT IS ABOUT GENTILES---for ISRAEL too these things apply, light of JESUS CHRIST, is given through gentiles, Isa. 60: 1-3

SO ALREADY WE WERE SAVED BY GRACE BY HIS BLOOD ---it MEANS we get the RICHES from HIS DEATH---similarly, ISRAEL too would get riches through His death.

Rom. 6: 3-7—VS. 5-- For if we have been planted together in the likeness of His death, we shall be also in the likeness of His resurrection:--4-- Therefore we are buried with Him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.---SO, after the baptizm unto His death, WE ARE TO BE WALKING IN NEWNESS OF LIFE, HAVING BEEN FORGIVEN OF ALL OUR SINS, we are like new born!!—that IS HOW we became 1^ST BORN OF POOR, Isa. 14: 30.

Then we were made ministers of Spirit, ministry of Righteousness, 2 co 3: 6, and we were given SPIRIT in our hearts, AS AGUARANTEE, 2 Co 1: 22. SPIRIT IS WORDS OF LIFE, Jo 6: 63---SO WE GOT KNOWLEDGE OF GOD THROUGH HIS SPIRIT!  --That is THROUGH HIS WORDS---this is explained in parable of the SOWER, Mt 13--

Mt 13:18--Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.

19 --When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.

20 -But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;21 -Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.

22 -He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.

23- But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.

Gentiles were prophesied to DEPART FROM FAITH, 1 Tim 4: 1-3—and the parable of the SOWER had fulfilled among them---SOME HAVE BECOME UNFRUITFUL---Rom. 7: 4 required to produce fruits unto God---but it did not happen, some had gone to the world!

THEY DID NOT UNDERSTAND THEIR CALLING!!

So Rom. 7: 15 had fulfilled among them---through parable of SOWER.

Rom. 7: 14 --For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.(law is spiritual means---law is according to the words of life, spirit is words of life, Jo 6: 63, spiritual is living by words of life! ----SO ALTHOUGH LAW IS SPIRITUAL, PEOPLE COULD BE CARNAL, LUSTING FOR FLESH!)---according to the parable of SOWER! The ground that received the word of God (in hearts) had been snatched away by Satan, or----their hearts that received the word of God is STONY, and they could not endure persecution, ----or their hearts are THORNS—THE CARES OF THIS WORLD ---HAD MADE THEM UNFRUITFUL!!

These things had happened among gentiles---THE WORDS OF GOD ARE TRUE, THEY FULFILL!! THESE ARE LESSONS FOR ISRAEL!

SO Rom. 7 explains how such people think and STRUGGLE TO KEEP LAW OF FAITH--

Rom. 7: 15-- For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. ---VV. 15, SAYS THAT one DOES WHAT HE HATES—WHICH SHOULD NOT BE DONE!

What SHOULD BE DONE-- IS NOT DONE---BECAUSE OF CARNAL NATURE, VS. 14.

16-- If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good.

VS. 16 SAYS ----(when you do the thing that YOU SHOULD NOT DO--- If then I do that which I would not )---(you make A LAW FOR YOURSELF ---saying THAT IT IS GOOD--- I consent unto the law that it is good).

Rom. 7: 17-- Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.---18-- For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.---vs. 17--THE SIN DWELLING IN THAT PERSON –vs. 18---IN HIS FLESH—does not allow to do good-----NO GOOD THING DWELLS----he does not find how to do GOOD!!

SO HE KEEPS ADDING SIN TO SIN!!

Rom. 7: 19-- For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.----HE CANNOT DO GOOD---BUT HE DOES EVIL!!

Rom. 7: 20-- Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. 21--I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. –a tragedy---sin had overtaken the person!!

Mt 13: 23- But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.---SUCH WHO UNDERSTAND THE WORD OF GOD would  BE DOERS OF WORD, JAS 1: 22 --THEYARE SPOKEN IN Rom. 8: 1--

Ps 119:142 - Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy law is the truth.

LAW IS THE TRUTH—lawlessness IS A LIE!!

LORD CONSUMES WICKEDNESS AND MAKES HIM KNOWN---AS HAPPENED TO ISRAEL--

Eze. 20: 23-- I would scatter them among the heathen, and disperse them through the countries;

24--Because they had not executed My judgments, but had despised My statutes, and had polluted My Sabbaths, and their eyes were after their fathers’ idols.

25  Wherefore I gave them also statutes that were not good, and judgments whereby they should not live; 26  And I polluted them in their own gifts, in that they caused to pass through the fire all that openeth the womb, that I might make them desolate, to the end that they might know that, I am the LORD.

(vs. 23 of Eze. 20, shows scattering of the captivity, Eze. 12: 13-15 {prophet of PCG leads captivity vv. 3-15}, 24—through their profaning Sabbaths, and doing against His judgments, 25—THEREFORE, LORD allowed them to do bad statutes, IN THE END HE WOULD DESOLATE THEM AND MAKE THEM KNOW that HE IS THEIR GOD! they caused fire to come on those who open the womb (Destroys next generation), without teaching truths of LORD (church is expected to produce a generation to carry on the work of the LORD, and that generations to teach their next generation, Ps. 78: 5-7-----just as that, gentiles as a generation, declares generation of ISRAEL, Ps. 22: 30-31).

When ISRAEL broke covenant, Eze.16: 59, they had to be scattered in captivity, Eze. 12: 13-15, and therefore, ISRAEL names had to be cut off from registry, Eze.13: 9. PCG had not produced a generation to carry on God’s service in truth!

SO PRESENT generation has to be CLEANSED THROUGH LORD’S FIRE, HIS WORDS, Jer. 5: 14, (for their names to be written on wall again, Rev. 21: 12)-----therefore LORD had made them as TOHU and BOHU, Jer. 4: 23—31 (the daughter of Zion is bewailing, vs. 31), in the END LORD CLEANSES them to know their God and His ways, therefore, (Col 2: 14 - Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against-- nailing it to His cross; 16 - Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the Sabbath days---SO GOD CLEANSES ALL SINS DONE AGAINST HIM IN HIS Sanctuary, that were against ISRAEL. THIS IS DONE through HIS DEATH ON THE CROSS. No one need to judge them on WRONG WORSHIP  as He cleanses and forgives through His blood of remission, Heb 9:22---Ro 3:25 

Heb 9:22 -And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.

LOOK AT THINGS THAT HAD BEEN DONE BY THE LAW!!

In that vs. alone---there are 2 THINGS that is done by law---

·        Even purging with blood

·        Remission given by shedding blood

HE WOULD desolate ISRAEL, Eze. 20: 26, and MAKE THEM KNOW HIM through a banner containing His judgments, and knowledge of Him, Isa. 11: 9-11, before He brings them back, Jer. 33; 24-26.

If ISRAEL makes another mistake and breaks the covenant, DO WE SUPPOSE THAT LORD HAS TO COME AGAIN AND DIE TO SAVE THEM---

That is why LORD teaches very seriously of HIS LAWS AND JUDGMENTS, COMMANDMENTS, SO THAT THE ETERNAL peace COVENANT, Eze. 37: 24-28, COULD BE MADE ----NEVER TO BREAK!!!

1.      The meaning of “I GAVE” in Eze.20: 25,  is that when ISRAEL of Rom. 9; 4, 6, (church of God, PCG in last days),  ISRAEL His chosen are not offering Him what God requires from them, Isa. 1: 12-15, despised His statutes, and polluted His Sabbaths, Eze. 20:16, 24, they even broke the covenant, Eze. 44: 7, therefore,--- in a just judgment OF HIS, for their disobedience, God abandoned them, Eze. 39: 21-23-- "allowed them up to walk after the idolatrous, ways of the heathen; God gave them over to their idols, --- they were thus  allowed for the desolation, vs. 26, God brought on them, that in the END, they know God, vs. 26, they know that the LORD is a God of judgment, Isa. 30: 8, ISRAEL had DISHONOURED GOD’S MERCIES. God tests the offerings we make, they should be sweet to Him, pleasing to Him when they thank Him and praise Him. ---SO WE SEE LORD gave them over to follow idols.----BUT IN THE END HE MAKES THEM KNOW ABOUT HIM, ALL HIS WAYS, AND ----THEN---HE WOULD END CAPTIVITY!

Eze. 20: 26  And I polluted them in their own gifts, ---that I might make them desolate, ----to the end----- that they might know -----that, I am the LORD.

Polluted---desolated---

And in the end---

They should know ----that HE IS THE LORD----

A LORD of judgment----a LORD of Righteousness ---a LORD of justice---God of whole earth, the creator, world created for His will, His purpose, Rev. 4: 11, He is sun of Righteousness, Mal 4: 2, He is a wonderful counselor, Isa. 9: 6, HE HAS POWER OVER ANYTHING---Almighty, Rev. 1: 8,  and so on.

Ps 89:14 --Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face.--- Pr 21:3  To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.

Isa 9:7- Of the increase of His government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon His kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even forever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.

Isa 56:1 --Thus saith the LORD, Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for My salvation is near to come, and My righteousness to be revealed.

So LORD GAVE ISRAEL OVER TO THEIR OWN LUSTS---IN ORDER TO DESOLATE AND MAKE HIM KNOWN AS THE GOD OF JUSTICE, SUN OF Righteousness, Mal 4: 2.

God does things like that---LORD does want us to be like those who received the word of God in good grounds to produce fruit -- Mt 13: 23- But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it;--)

2.      Again, God sent strong delusion, that they should believe a lie," to those who "received not the love of the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness, 2Th 2:8-11, THEY ARE LAWLESS!  Again we see here, that God allowed them to follow a “lie”---so that HE WOULD DESTROY SUCH LIES WITH HIS SPIRIT, DURING LORD’S DAY, vs. 8, when He comes in rain, Hos 6: 3, all wickedness would be revealed, (all get wicked when leaders who do not understand God’s judgments, and His words as in parable of SOWER). HIS SPIRIT is LIFE GIVING words, Jo 6: 63, SO LORD TEACHES, and gives a fountain to cleanse, Zec 13: 1. It is the banner of Isa. 11: 9-11, sent through gentiles, vs. 10, it is overflowing water sent by gentiles, Isa. 42: 4, 15.

3.      Similarly, those who got KNOWLEDGE OF HIM and do not produce fruits are given a DEBASED MIND TO DO INCONVENIENT THINGS, SINS---Ro 1:28-31, which would not ALLOW THEM TO LIVE,VS. 32. We had seen those fulfilling in the midst of gentiles, the 1^st born of POOR, Isa. 14: 30, when they departed from faith, when they do not eat LORD’S good food, 1 Tim 4: 1-3. Such are in second death, they are put in lake of fire, Re 21:8, Re 20:14.

4.      Eze.5: 5: Thus saith the Lord GOD; This is Jerusalem: I have set it in the midst of the nations and countries that are round about her. 6 -And she hath changed My judgments into wickedness more than the nations, and My statutes more than the countries that are round about her: for they have refused My judgments and My statutes, they have not walked in them. Bible is a MANUAL to believers that TEACHES them, HOW WE SHOULD BE OBEDIENT TO GOD’S WAYS---it could be teachings of His judgments, laws, statutes, commandments, testimonies, precepts, lines…..

When LORD judges, He teaches also because Eternal covenant has to be made with ISRAEL, Eze. 16: 60-63, and all flesh, Isa. 66: 23.

All above points show us that God’s believers, should know God’s judgments as He is a God of judgment, Isa. 30: 8—

Ps 1:5- Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

Ps 9:8 -And He shall judge the world in righteousness, He shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness. Ps 33:5- He loveth righteousness and judgment:

Ps 37:30 -The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment.

Ps 89:14- Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face.-- Ps 94:15  But judgment shall return unto righteousness: and all the upright in heart shall follow it. THEREFORE ALL BELIEVERS ARE TO HONOUR HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS!!

Ps 111:7 -The works of His hands are verity and judgment; all His commandments are sure. Ps 122:5-- For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

Ps 9:7- But the LORD shall endure for ever: He hath prepared His throne for judgment. (so in David’s throne, He makes judgments!).

We see the God of judgment, had set thrones for judgment of house of David, Ps. 122: 5, when He revives David’s throne, Amos 9: 11---,what are thrones ---other than LEADERS’ OFFICES!! ---so Gerald Flurry and ministry, and even gentiles working as David, Zec 12: 8, are judged! How are the judgments done?--- Jo 12: 48-- He that rejecteth Me, and receiveth not My words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

Isa 1:26-And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be called, The city of righteousness, the faithful city.

Mt 13: 23- But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.

Eze. 47: 22--strangers that sojourn among you, which shall beget children among you: and they shall be unto you as born in the country among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.

Those who bear fruit would be judging, they are gentiles---who serve ISRAEL, Isa. 14: 1, 2.

Jo 12: 48-- He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not My words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

ALL PRAISE AND THANKSGIVING BE TO THE GOD OF WHOLE EARTH, JESUS CHRIST, AMEN  AND AMEN.
