What is does “righteousness apart from works” mean?
What is does “righteousness apart from works” mean?
First, what it does not mean:
Salvation with no human effort,
That their is nothing we can do to be saved, ,
That faith and works are opposites instead of inseparable,
To obey the Gospel makes you your own savior.
teaches grace is still needed to complete sanctification.
But that does not mean we must not do our part ;
Second, Abraham — justification by obedient faith apart from the works of the law,
Third, David — righteous even though works were sinful, ;
Abraham’s works, (blindly following God and offering up only Son) were faithful.
But David’s brings in the sinfulness of the human heart.
Just so, Mary Magdalene and Jesus feet was a problem to Simon the Pharisee.
The Blessings of the Forgiveness of Sin,
For Abraham
For David
For Us
In Cinci/N.KY we have two seasons: winter and road constructions.
We don’t patch either – we tear down the old roads and replace them with the new.
So Jesus came to give us a new WAY to the Father.
Yet many are still today trying to path up the old WAY.
Why?
· Do you like to be in debt to someone?
· Do you feel comfortable when people do you a favor?
Yet that is what Christ does for us.
Why?
Without forgiveness we are in deep trouble.
So, what do we try to do?
· , Hedonism
· , Judgmentalism
· , Legalism
It is this Legalism gives birth to our study this evening.
FOR ABRAHAM, ; ,
Shortly after returning from a war I was fighting I was married and asleep next to my new bride when a truck outside our apartment backfired.
When we are trained to obey we don’t think.
We don’t contemplate the humiliation that may follow.
We just get up and go.
Let the 75-yr.
old man who asked the widow lady two questions while down on one knee.
At 75 Abraham picked up all and obeyed.
John Dolton, 42; Harry Simpson, 62
Abraham received the BLESSINGS OF THE FORGIVENESS OF SIN because of his OBEDIENT FAITH
How was Abraham saved?
By faith.
But his faith also obeyed God.
True faith always obeys God.
What about us?
FOR DAVID, ; ; ,
A man after God’s own heart to an adulterer and murderer (, ).
The Museum of Broken Relationships in Zagreb, Croatia, is filled with anonymously donated remnants of love gone wrong.
There is an axe that a jilted lover used to destroy the furniture of an offending partner.
Stuffed animals, love letters framed in broken glass, and wedding dresses all speak volumes of heartache.
While some visitors to the museum leave in tears over their own loss, some couples depart with hugs and a promise not to fail each other
FOR US, ;
After a life of blatant sin, how do we receive forgiveness?
The same way David did.
The path to forgiveness is through Jesus.
He is ;
Sums up the matter of forgiveness for you and all mankind.
Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life and no man comes to the Father except through me.”
Kintsugi is a centuries-old Japanese art of mending broken pottery.
Gold dust mixed with resin is used to reattach broken pieces or fill in cracks, resulting in a striking bond.
Instead of trying to hide the repair, the art makes something beautiful out of brokenness.
