THAT WHICH THEY HAVE NOT HEARD

Thursday, October 14th, 2010

Behold, My Servant shall deal wisely and shall prosper.

He shall be exalted and shall stand very high.

For many the Servant of God became an object of horror.

Many were astonished at Him. His face and His whole

appearance were marred more than any man’s, and His

form beyond that of the sons of men- but just as many

were astonished at Him.

So shall he startle and sprinkle many nations, and kings

shall shut there mouths because of Him; for that which

has not been told them shall they see, and that which they

have not heard shall they consider and understand.

(Isaiah 52.13-15).

Even as my preaching has been accompanied with the power of signs

and wonders, and all of it by the power of the Holy Spirit. The result is

that starting from Jerusalem and as far round as Illyricum, I have fully

preached the Gospel (Best News Ever), faithfully carrying out to the full

the good news of Christ (the Messiah) in its entirety.

Thus my ambition has been to preach the Gospel (Best News Ever), not

where Christ’s name has already been known, lest I build on another man’s

foundation;

But instead I would act on the principle as it is written, They shall see who

have never been told of Him, and they shall understand who have never heard

of Him.

(Romans 15.19-21).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

FREE GIFT

Thursday, September 10th, 2009

Nor is the free gift at all to be compared

to the effect of that one man’s ( Adam’s)

sin.

For the sentence following the trespass

of one man brought condemnation

whereas the free gift following many

transgressions brings justification.

For if because of one man’s trespass

death reigned through that one

much more surely will those who

receive God’s overflowing grace

and the free gift of righteousness

reign as kings in life through the

one Man Jesus Christ.

Well then, as one man’s trespass led

to condemnation for all men,

so one man’s act of righteousness leads

to acquittal and right standing with God

and life for all men.

(Romans 5.16-18).

Consider these points:

1) The sin of Adam concluded all mankind in sin.

2) Sin led to death and decay ( corruption).

3) Jesus Christ, the Eternal Son, the second

person of the Holy Trinity ( Godhead) being

fully God, also became fully human to give

all humanity a new start ( recapitulation).

4) Now His righteousness is imputed to us

and brings about our reconciliation and

justification.

5) We become a new creation in Christ with

His characteristics, instead of the old sinful

human nature inherited from Adam.

6) Jesus Christ reversed the guilty verdict

and gave us right standing in God’s sight.

7) Because of our right standing which we

receive through Jesus Christ, God’s grace and

extravagant favor overflow  into our lives.
