CEREMONIAL LAW NAILED

NOT UNDER THE LAW?

LAW IS MADE FOR THE UNJUST

THE MORAL LAW IS GOOD

THE UNCHARGEABLE

Galatians 3:11  . . . The just shall live by faith.

BY FAITH WE PLEASE HIM

NO FAITH, UNDER THE LAW

Romans 14:23  . . . for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.

NO FAITH NO GRACE NO HOPE

Romans 5:2  By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

GRACE IS TO REIGN

Hebrews 4:16  Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

GRACE SHOULD REIGN

Romans 5:21  . . . even so might grace reign through righteousness (obedience) unto eternal [agelasting] life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

 GRACE DEFINED

2 Corinthians 12:9  And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

SATISFACTION THROUGH GRACE

2 Corinthians 9:8  And God is able [present active] to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having [present active] all sufficiency [contentment, satisfaction] in all things, may abound [present active subjunctive] to every good work:

EFFECTS OF GRACE

1 Corinthians 15:10  But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

RECEIVED NOT HIS GRACE IN VAIN

2 Corinthians 6:1  We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.

DO NOT FRUSTRATE GRACE

Galatians 2:21  I do not frustrate [present active, set aside, despise] the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain [for naught]. (the ceremonial law is in force, Col 2:14)

ENDURE BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH

Ephesians 2:8  For by grace are ye [present active, endure Mk 4:17] saved [perfect passive participle, having been saved] through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift (grace is a gift) of God:

WARNING!

Hebrews 10:29  Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite [insult] unto the Spirit [vital principal] of grace?

SON OF GOD, OUR PRIEST

Hebrews 5:5-6  . . . he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee.  6  As he saith also in another place, Thou art a priest for ever [age] after the order of Melchisedec.

THROUGH HIM WE FIND GRACE

Hebrews 4:14, 16  Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.

16  Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

UNDER FOOT

Matthew 5:13  . . . good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

IF WE CRUCIFY THE SON OF GOD

Hebrews 6:6  If they shall fall away, (impossible) to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God (their high priest) afresh, and put him (themselves) to an open shame.

WORKS APART FROM GRACE BURNED

Hebrews 12:28-29  Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have [present active subjunctive, may we have] grace, whereby we may serve [present active subjunctive] God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:  29  For our God is a consuming fire.

DO NOT CONTINUALLY LACK GRACE

Hebrews 12:15  Looking diligently [present active, you take the oversight] lest any man fail [present active, lack, suffer need, (be in) want] of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;

WHEN DO WE FALL FROM GRACE?

Galatians 5:3-4  For I testify again to every man that is circumcised (ceremonial), that he is a debtor to do the whole (ceremonial) law.  4  Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law (alone); ye are fallen from grace.

THESE DO NOT FALL FROM GRACE

Galatians 3:11  But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith. (the do not fall from grace, they have power from Christ)

MAY WE HAVE GRACE

Hebrews 12:28  Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have [present active] grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:

GRACE BY MEANS OF KNOWLEDGE

2 Peter 1:2  Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge [epignwsiv, knowledge upon knowledge] of God, and of Jesus our Lord,

EMPHASIS ON THE LAST PHRASE

1 Peter 1:2  . . . (Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.) through sanctification (purification) of the (our) Spirit (drive, vigor), unto [leading to] obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.

PEACE IS THE UMPIRE

Colossians 3:15-16  And let the peace of God rule [umpire] in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.  16  Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
