Text: Romans
5:8-10 But God commendeth his love toward
us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ
died for us. 9 Much
more then, being now justified by
his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. 10 For
if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled
to God by the death of his Son, much
more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.
CHRIST DIED
Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in
that, while we were yet sinners, Christ
died [aorist, event] for us.
HIS
SPIRIT WENT TO THE FATHER
Luke 23:46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice,
he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit
[pneuma]: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost [ekpnew, breathed out].
WITHOUT
THE SPIRIT
James 2:26 For as the body without the spirit [pneuma] is
dead [nekrov, not qanatov]. . . .
HIS
BODY WENT INTO THE TOMB
Matthew 27:59-60 And when Joseph had taken the body (Jesus), he wrapped it in a
clean linen cloth, 60 And laid
it in his own new tomb. . .
HIS
SOUL IN
Luke 23:43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily [indeed, emphatic] I say unto thee, To day shalt thou
be with me in paradise.
HE
DIED FOR ALL
2 Corinthians
5:14-15 For the love of Christ constraineth
us; because we thus judge, that if one
died [aorist, event] for all,
then were all dead: 15 And that he died for all, that they
which live should not
henceforth live unto themselves, but
unto him which died for them, and
rose again.
MUCH MORE,
HIS BLOOD FOR JUSTIFICATION
Romans 5:9 Much
more then, being now justified (not
chargeable) by his blood, we
shall be saved from wrath through him.
THE BLOOD CLEANSETH
1 John 1:7 But if we walk [present active] in the light, as he is in the light,
we have [present active] fellowship one with another, and the
blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth
[present active] us from all sin. (justification)
CONFESSION
BRINGS CLEANSING
1 John 1:9 If we confess
[present active] our sins, he is
[present active] faithful and
just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
ENEMIES
Romans 5:10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled
to God by the death [qanatov, not nekrov, noun] of his Son, much more, being
reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.
POSITION
OF GOD’S ENEMY
Hebrews 1:13 But to which of the angels said he at any
time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool?
THE
EARTH IS MY FOOTSTOOL
Isaiah 66:1 Thus saith the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool:
WRITTEN
IN THE EARTH
Jeremiah 17:13 O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken
the LORD, the fountain of living waters.
NAMES
WRITTEN IN HEAVEN
Luke 10:20 . . . rejoice not, that the spirits are
subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
SINS
SEPARATE
Isaiah 59:1-2 Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that
it cannot hear: 2 But your
iniquities have separated between you and your God, and
your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.
RECONCILIATION ILLUSTRATED
1 Corinthians
7:10-11 And unto the married I command, yet
not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart
from her husband: 11 But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put
away his wife.
RECONCILED
BY THE DEATH
Romans 5:10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death [noun with the definite
article, a place, a person or a thing] of
his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.
DIED
FOR OUR SALVATION
Romans 5:8 . . . while we were yet sinners, Christ died [verb, aorist] for us. (as well as for all)
THE
DEATH FOR RECONCILIATION
Colossians 1:21-23 And you, that were sometime (not all the time) alienated and enemies in
your mind by wicked works,
yet now hath he reconciled 22 In the body of his flesh (in the garden) through [the] death [noun, a place, a person or a
thing], to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his
sight: 23 If
ye continue in the faith
DEATHS
Isaiah 53:9 And he made his grave with the wicked, and
with the rich in his death [Hebrew, deaths]; …
HIS
SOUL AN OFFERING FOR SIN
Isaiah 53:10 Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul (not his body) an offering for sin, he shall see his
seed, he shall prolong his days (as our high priest), and
the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.
TRAVAIL
OF HIS SOUL
Mark 14:33-36 And he taketh with him Peter and James and
John, and began to be sore amazed, and to be very heavy; 34 And
saith unto them, My soul is exceeding
sorrowful unto [ewv, until] death [qanatov]: tarry ye here,
and watch. 35 And he went forward a little, and fell on the
ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from
him.
THAT
DEATH
36 And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away
this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt.
BEAR
THE INIQUITY OF THE MANY
Isaiah 53:11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, and
shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear
[5445] their (many) iniquities. (be reduced to a
footstool, written in the earth)
BEAR
THE CONSEQUENCES
Lamentations 5:7 Our fathers have sinned, and are not;
and we have borne [5445]
their iniquities.
HE
LAY DOWN HIS LIFE FOR THE SHEEP
John 10:14-15 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep,
and am known of mine. 15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the
Father: and I lay down my life [yuch, soul] for the sheep.
HE
DID NOT TAKE HIS SOUL AGAIN
John 10:17-18 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I
lay down my life [yucn, soul], that I might
take it again. 18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down
of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This
commandment have I received of my Father.
LAYING
DOWN MY LIFE
Matthew 16:24-26 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man
will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow
me. 25
For whosoever will save his life
[yuch, soul] shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life [yuch, soul] for my sake shall find it. 26 For
what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul [yuch]? or what shall a
man give in exchange for his soul [yuch]?
HATE YOUR SOUL
John 12:24-25
Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the
ground and die [be dead], it
abideth alone: but if it die [be dead], it bringeth forth much
fruit. 25 He that loveth his life [yuch, soul] shall lose [perish] it; and he that
hateth his life [yuch, soul] in this world
shall keep [guard] it (soul)
unto [eiv, leading to] life eternal [agelasting]. (Kingdom
life)
WE
SHOULD LAY DOWN OUR LIVES
1 John 3:16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because
he laid down his life [yuch, soul] for us: and we (brethren) ought to lay
down our lives [yuch, soul] (not physical
death) for the brethren.
SAVING
A SOUL FROM DEATH
James 5:19-20 Brethren,
if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert
him (reconciliation); 20 Let him know, that he which converteth the
sinner from the error of his way shall
save a soul from death [qanatov, a place], and shall hide a multitude of sins. (justification)
PASSED
FROM THE DEATH
John 5:24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth [present active] my
word, and believeth [present active]
on him [the Father] that sent
me, hath [present active, regards,
esteems] everlasting [agelasting
kingdom] life, and shall not
come into condemnation [judgment];
but is passed from [the] death
[qanatov] unto [the] life.
