The Great Church Audit - Part 1

masti masling man
0:20
monday's stanley's slash
0:24
holding me up
0:27
scenario the
0:30
medicine
0:31
then the said is not available
0:37
dismantle of the
0:40
godliness
0:42
here telling
0:44
alone and the and
0:47
amazed and you know
0:51
world in my interest and we would have
stood for treatment streets today we are
0:55
going to dive into
0:58
a difficult complex but
1:00
over time you'll see how simple
1:02
of a topic uh... we're going to bring to
get into today really is
1:05
but we are going to taka bout a series
that's entitled the great
1:10
church on it
1:11
bomb and uh... and so my question right
off the bat when was the last time
1:16
that the church actually had an audit
maybe five hundred years ago with martin
1:20
luther
1:21
well now's the time i'd believe in these
last days that god is calling his people
1:25
to awb it exactly what
1:28
they believe why they believe
1:31
and ultimately
1:32
what we believe is going to determine
1:34
how we live our life
1:35
so without further ado i'm going to ask
you a couple of request before we get
1:40
started
1:41
but this is actually a three dvd or
three part series in this dvd series
1:46
of the first one is called what is sin
1:48
and we're gonna talk about that today
1:50
that'll be the first part of the series
the second one is what is the new
1:53
covenant
1:54
and the third one is the difficult
scenes of paul
1:57
as we walk through today's topic of what
is sin
2:01
uh... it sells like a simple question
2:05
but as we begin to dive into the
scriptures and let the scriptures define
2:08
the scriptures what we're going to find
out
2:10
is that man's fingerprints once again
2:13
has made itself into the little crevices
of our theology
2:17
and that needs to be tweaked just a
little bit
2:19
and in that tweaking i mean i i'm going
to ask you to keep an open mind
2:24
because as we let the bible actually
define itself
2:27
as some of the conclusions that we come
to mind actually rub against what you
2:32
currently believe or your currency ology
2:34
so don't get too far ahead
2:36
as we work through the scriptures and
and try to draw conclusions
2:40
this is just the first part
2:42
in a series of the first part of this
journey
2:45
so what we're going to try to answer the
ultimate question is
2:48
is is the law of god or is the
commandments of god or is the covenant
2:53
of god
2:54
that was given on mount sinai feels that
done away with has it been abolished
2:58
have weak remitted
3:01
indirectly high treason against a king
3:03
and not even known it
3:05
so now for the new let's get started
3:07
and uh... will begin to work through the
scriptures
3:11
the first question is are we in
violation
3:13
of the king's lol
3:16
like i said before we're going to deal
with what is sin
3:19
what is the new cabinet
3:21
and ultimately the difficult same's
appalled i think many of you will admit
3:25
with me that much of what paul says is
kind of hard to understand
3:30
i'm going to submit to you that in that
series when we get there
3:33
you're going to find out that the reason
why
3:35
a lot of hope all has to say is
difficult to understand
3:38
is because we're looking at it from the
wrong perspective
3:42
we're looking at it from our perspective
3:44
and not from his
3:49
the power other definition
3:51
how many you know that howell
3:53
one defines sin
3:55
is directly related to how you will live
your life
3:58
how do you live your life is directly
related to what you believe
4:02
whatever you believe this in
4:04
you will naturally condemn so if you
believe that
4:08
palma sexuality is wrong then you're
going to condemn that if you believe
4:11
that abortion is wrong
4:12
then you are going to condemn that
4:14
you will not condemn something if you
don't believe it's wrong
4:18
so i would submit to you that what you
actually believe
4:22
is incredibly important because you're
already doing
4:26
what you believe in
4:29
what you believe if you believe
something is not sad
4:32
you will naturally support it
4:34
so what we're going to try to do an
answering this question of what's in his
4:37
is that we want to make sure that we
stand before god at the end of time
4:41
that our definition of sin is exactly
4:44
what his definition of sentence
4:49
before we actually let the scriptures
tell us what says let's walk through the
4:53
internet for a moment most of us would
use the internet for a lot of different
4:55
things but let's
4:57
let's find out exactly
4:59
what
4:59
our culture says
5:01
sin is if you were to do a cursory
research
5:04
a google search if you will
5:06
on sent
5:06
some of the web definitions i found work
in strange men from god
5:11
and act that is regarded by theologians
as a transgression of god's will
5:16
wikipedia says
5:17
send as a term used mainly in a
religious context to describe an act
5:21
that violates a moral rule
5:23
or the state of having committed such a
violation
5:26
commonly the moral code of conduct is
decreed
5:29
by divine entity
5:30
i want to mention their wikipedia says
5:33
commonly
5:34
that is defined by divine entity
5:36
that means that every once in awhile
5:39
an eight none div identity
5:41
can actually
5:42
begin to define what that say this and
so
5:45
what we want to do again as we want to
make sure
5:47
that what our definition of sin is is
exactly what his definitions and of why
5:51
is that so important
5:52
i'll tell you what how critical this is
5:56
is because
5:57
we do not want to be offending god
5:59
and not know what
6:02
we don't want to be like the is realized
that find themselves at the base of
6:05
mount sinai
6:06
remember when the at the base of mount
sinai moses goes up on the mounties
6:09
there for forty days and forty knots
okay
6:12
and he never comes back so they think
and so what if they decide to do
6:16
now they come from a culture
6:18
that is that has gobs and gobs as-is for
everything
6:21
and they create idols
6:23
as mediators between the gods and amp
6:27
and so moses became their mediator
between them in ya way
6:31
welwyn moses took off and then come back
they needed a new mediator
6:36
and so
6:38
contrary to what a lot of us have been
taught about the golden calf they were
6:41
not worshipping another god
6:43
from their perspective
6:46
there's a disagreement in the scriptures
and we'll bring that out just a moment
6:49
of all this for a point
6:50
of how critical it is to make sure that
we define sen
6:53
from the perspective of god ya way
6:57
it says in the text
6:59
aaron says tomorrow we're going to have
a feast
7:02
to yell away
7:03
you see from their perspective all they
did was replaced lenses
7:07
and they had come from the traditions
and doctrines of men in egypt and so
7:10
they took upon themselves the background
and their culture and they created a
7:16
system
7:16
a new mediator or new sacrificial system
if you will
7:20
to bring before their new golf
7:23
now the problem is is that from their
perspective everything was fine in
7:27
hunky-dory everything was going to the
right direction
7:30
but from god's perspective what did he
always speak to moses when he was on the
7:34
mountain he said wait a minute all your
son or is
7:36
moses you need to go back down the
mountain because the people are serving
7:41
other gods
7:42
there were subpoenaed other dot
7:44
now you see that's where we get it in
the text of where we all grew up in our
7:47
bible stories are
7:48
sunday school that that the people were
worshiping
7:51
other gods and that's why i got got so
upset
7:53
but that is not the case my friends
7:55
it was from he always perspective that
they were worshiping another god from
7:59
the israel lights perspective they were
not
8:04
god had defined sin
8:07
one-way
8:08
the people defined it another way that's
the critical this because three thousand
8:13
people died on that day
8:15
and so why we're going through this and
it might seem a silly question to ask
8:19
ask them what what is send doesn't
everybody know what's in it as well
8:24
noble over
8:24
we don't all know what standards are
everyone would not be doing the same
8:27
thing everyone's doing what's right and
their own eyes
8:30
and i'm listening to you is because
8:32
that we have
8:33
far moved away from
8:35
the biblical definitions
8:40
webster's dictionary webster's
dictionary says and offense against
8:44
religious for moral law
8:45
an action that is felt to be highly
reprehensible
8:49
and often serious shortcomings
8:52
transgression of the law of god
8:55
officiated state of human nature in
which the self isn't strange from god
9:01
what's let's work through afew
scriptures here in the new testament
9:05
some very popular scriptures on said
number one romans six one
9:08
what shall we say that shall we
continuance in
9:11
that grace may abound
9:14
romans three twenty three virtually
everyone has heard of this verse
9:17
for all of us and in fall short
9:19
of the glory of god
9:21
well how we define sin is going to be
directly proportionate to what we get
9:25
out of this person
9:26
romans three six twenty three says for
the wages of sin of the penalty of sin
9:30
is death
9:31
but the free gift of god's eternal life
9:33
now we have talked about these verses
our whole life and in sharing the gospel
9:37
with people
9:38
but i'm going to ask the question
9:40
what this scene
9:42
actually me
9:44
when paul wrote the scriptures and
realms three in romans six
9:47
what was in his mind what did he mean
when he said
9:50
the wages of sin
9:52
is death
9:53
and all had seen
9:57
how we define sin
9:58
is going to be exactly what we pull out
of the versed in what we plot of that
10:02
births
10:02
is ultimately how we're going to live
our life
10:06
so we need a teacher's aide
10:08
when you agreed
10:09
if we're going to find any word in any
language
10:12
what would be a valuable book to use
10:14
to help define that word
10:17
so i hope you set a dictionary because
that's exactly what we need is a
10:21
dictionary
10:22
now here's the real question
10:24
she where users underpinned bible
dictionary
10:27
banker bible dictionary or the harper's
bible dictionary
10:30
there's lots of dictionaries out there
that we can use
10:33
we need to find out exactly which
dictionary
10:36
that we should use
10:37
should you pull it off your shelf
10:39
that's our first inclination is in it
10:41
should we call our pastor shively
10:43
she we do this you would do that so we
do a google search on what sentence
10:47
i'm going to submit to you with all
throughout this teaching
10:50
that there is only one single document
10:53
that you really need to understand the
scriptures and that is the scriptures
10:58
there's a reason why they're sixty six
of them
11:01
there's a reason why there's
11:02
there's thousands and thousands upon
thousands of verses in the scriptures
11:06
why he emphasizes over and over again
the same topic because he wants to give
11:10
us context to help us understand
11:12
that we don't have to go anywhere else
11:14
all we need to do is let the scriptures
through the spirit
11:17
show us
11:19
what it says and will get the exact
definition watch this
11:23
if rocket use any of those dept those
11:26
dictionaries them what should we use
well
11:28
what if i told you that archaeologists
have found a first-century bible
11:32
dictionary
11:33
that totally completely from eight is
the
11:36
details every single biblical were
definition found in the bible
11:41
would you believe me
11:43
do you know what they call it
11:44
they actually did finance
11:47
it's called
11:49
or the old testament
11:52
that is the bible dictionary
11:54
that we need to use so if we want to
know how the new testament writers
11:58
defined the words that they wrote
12:00
then we have to use
12:01
the only book of reference and
dictionary that they have
12:05
at the time
12:08
remember
12:09
in the new testament
12:10
their is no new testament
12:12
and no christianity when the hebrew
scriptures were written when they were
12:16
pinned
12:17
what we we later called scripture or the
new testament there was no new testament
12:22
and there was no church
12:23
so in the new testament
12:25
we are in our in our bible studies and
as we begin to walk through the
12:28
scriptures and try to understand them
12:30
it is a critical permanent of coal rule
12:33
of interpreting scriptures that we
understand this one a rule
12:36
that we cannot use the new testament
12:39
to interpret the new testament
12:41
because it didn't exist
12:42
paul when he was reading writing romans
12:45
did not quote from timothy as scripture
12:49
when he was writing the book of romans
he quoted from a one source
12:52
into one source only
12:54
and that's the only dictionary that he
had available to him
12:57
which was the old testament
12:59
so it would behoove us as believers
13:01
that if we're going to understand doctor
to prevent understand theology if we
13:04
want to learn how live our lives
13:07
we need to use the same dictionary
13:09
the disciples use of the apostles used
winding road the scriptures we do great
13:15
so let's go back to the beginning
because the beginning
13:18
is where we're gonna find our answers
13:20
daniel nine eleven says this yes
13:23
all israel
13:24
has transgressed
13:26
your lol
13:26
and has departed
13:29
so as not to obey your voice therefore
13:31
the curse tomatoes written in the law of
moses the servant of god
13:35
has been port out upon us
13:37
because we have seen
13:39
against him
13:42
see what we're doing here guys is we're
letting the old testament describe
13:46
what's in it so we're going to go back
to the bible dictionary
13:49
and we're gonna find out exactly what
13:50
the old testament says
13:52
what their dictionary sets up the
trumpet to your mouth
13:54
he shall come like an angel against the
house of the lord
13:57
because they had transgressed my cabinet
14:00
and rebelled
14:01
against my wall
14:06
so what do the old testament definition
of sin
14:09
two very simple
14:10
it is the breaking
14:12
of gods
14:14
that's the definition
14:15
that they had from the very beginning
14:17
of time
14:18
when the new testament riders were
pending their would later be called the
14:21
new testament scriptures
14:23
their definition the framework of their
might remember all of these new
14:27
testament riders are jewish
14:29
but all come from he break a mindset
14:31
so we would do well that if we're going
to understand the same scriptures that
14:34
they were out
14:36
that we would have that same he break
mindset as well
14:40
so won't as we work through these
scriptures remember what we're doing is
14:43
we're taking the glasses
14:46
of the western greco roman society
14:48
and twenty-first century theology emerg
just go to put them aside for a moment
14:53
input on the glasses that paul and
timothy
14:55
in general and in luke in all of them
have
14:58
and those glasses
15:00
or he break
15:03
if you were to go to the first century
15:05
and ask you a little jewish boy
15:07
watsonwyatt
15:09
he would tell you
15:10
is the breaking of god's law
15:14
so now that we know exactly what the old
testament has to say about what watson
15:18
is let's move to the new testament see
if we see any different
15:23
interpretation
15:25
romans three twenty says this therefore
by the deeds of the lol
15:29
no flesh
15:30
will be justified
15:32
for by the law
15:33
is the knowledge of sent
15:35
soul right here
15:36
what we have is we have a new testament
scripture that is detail info russ
15:40
exactly watson isn't what it does
15:43
it brings
15:44
to us the knowledge
15:45
that we've broken god's commandments
15:47
if we it right here poll says in romans
three twenty that the law
15:51
tells you when your in sent
15:54
the law brings the knowledge of said
15:56
let's reverse that a lot of times if you
want to stay in scripture we can reverse
15:59
it animal it'll it'll extrapolate for
you a little deeper maybe
16:03
that means that without the law
16:05
there is no knowledge of sent
16:08
right here we have a problem
16:09
in our christian thinking because are
christian thinking or most of our
16:13
theology that we've been brought up was
says that the law of god
16:16
has been done away with
16:18
that the old covenant
16:19
is old you c_n_n_ our definition of old
16:23
law means that uh... uh... the new is
better
16:26
out with the old and with the new right
16:28
the only uh... people that see value in
something that's older people that uh...
16:33
if you don't collect artifact
16:34
or if your garage sailor if you have
hugo garage sale in the new definitely
16:38
see the valued something that's all
16:40
and that's what we want to do right here
in the scriptures we want to bring
16:43
valley would put the old testament
16:45
and the new testament together
16:47
and make sure that the definitions that
are given our exactly with the disciples
16:52
had in mind
16:53
and their definition
16:54
of sin
16:56
you can all be found
16:58
in the wall
17:00
robin seven eight says but sin
17:02
taking opportunity by the commitment
produced in me all manner upheaval
17:06
desire
17:07
for apart from the law sin
17:10
was dead
17:11
taken over for a second and justin died
right about that
17:14
is it what what he said as you take away
the law of god
17:17
you have no ability to know what's in
its
17:20
sin is dead
17:22
because it has no opportunity to condemn
you
17:24
if you remove
17:26
the law
17:27
you remove the power of the law over you
to condemn you now
17:32
at cursory
17:33
i thought you might have what's a good
thing we don't want the law to curse s
17:37
well my friends if we don't have a
curves
17:39
we don't need to save
17:41
that's a critical
17:42
this issue is
17:45
first corinthians fifteen fifty six says
this
17:48
the sting of death is sin and the
strength of sin
17:52
is the lol
17:53
what does that mean
17:54
very simply that's in the has no
definition
17:58
outside of the law the strength of sand
is the law itself
18:02
you remove the law
18:04
there is no sense in has no power
18:06
because sins power over man
18:09
is because the law defines exactly what
it is
18:14
james two nine
18:15
president avik council of jerusalem says
this
18:18
the brother of the issuer but if you
show partiality
18:21
you commit send and are convicted by the
law
18:25
as transgressions
18:26
now it is a direct quote
18:28
from the biggest nineteen fifty
18:30
he's saying the same exact thing
18:33
that he said
18:33
ed in the new testament and the old
testament
18:36
is being said in the new testament
18:40
that's in
18:42
is a transgression of god law
18:44
and on that you're probably the most
powerful very clear articulate verse in
18:48
the new testament that is undisputed
18:51
heavyweight champion of the new
testament so to speak
18:53
their lines up directly with the old
testament first john chapter three burst
18:57
forth says who would who so ever
18:59
commits sin
19:01
transgress is also the law
19:03
foreseen
19:04
is the transgression of god's law
19:08
now can we have any anymore an
19:12
clear definition of exactly what
sentence
19:14
it's the transit it is the breaking of
god's law
19:17
sin is the breaking of god's law
19:19
so with this in mind
19:20
this is going to be a little fun course
it would be very intriguing where you go
19:24
back through some of our favorite verses
in the new testament
19:28
and we're going to take off our greco
roman christian mindset of exactly what
19:32
senators and we're going to read
19:34
the verses as if
19:37
sin is actually breaking
19:38
of the commands
19:42
romans chapter six verse one says this
19:45
what shall we say that member we just
read this virtual earlier
19:48
shall we continue in breaking the law
19:52
that grace may amount
19:53
now many of us have been told
19:55
that growing up in a christian circles
that we're not under the law anymore
20:00
we're under grapes
20:02
well here's a question
20:03
did paul mean right here in romans
chapter six verse one
20:07
that we are no longer have to
20:09
keep god's law you can break god's lol
20:12
because grace will abound
20:14
all right here he details for us that
20:17
we shall not continue breaking the law
orson
20:20
so that grace may have been to see the
difference
20:23
when you define soon is something
20:26
ambiguous you know philosophy
20:30
philosophical thought of you know
breaking
20:33
moral code or
20:34
breaking society's code of conduct
20:36
uh... are such a thing
20:38
what you do is you remove the power in
the very clear interpretation of the
20:41
scriptures they just ever so slightly
moved to the left
20:45
you get the two thousand years of
history
20:48
and the entire scriptures become liberal
they become very left they move strongly
20:52
to the left because they slowly have
been turned to the left over time
20:56
if you go back and read
20:58
define the scriptures the way the
authors actually defined it which is by
21:01
the dictionary that they had
21:03
what you find
21:05
we shall not continue breaking the law
21:07
and my friends the only lol the new
testament was the law of god
21:10
in the old testament
21:13
roman six fifteen says
21:15
what shallot what men shall we say
21:18
break the law
21:19
because we are not under the penalty of
the law but under grace certainly not
21:23
probably one of the most
21:25
miss understood scriptures
21:27
up of the day is right here and romans
chapter six this has become shall we
21:31
continue to send because we're not under
law were under grace
21:34
we had to find that my friends
21:37
as lawlessness
21:38
that we are not under the jurisdiction
of lonely longer we do not have to keep
21:43
god's commandments there are no
instructions for life outside of what we
21:45
find in the new testament
21:47
we're under grace as if the grace the
definition of grace
21:51
is liberty to say that
21:53
may never be
21:55
uh... romans success rumah six one says
we shall not continued to break the law
22:00
just because were under grace matter
fact he says
22:02
the question is what then shall we break
the law because we're not
22:06
under its penalty anymore
22:08
no we are under grace that's what he's
saying
22:11
you see law only came to do three things
in your to find out what that is just a
22:15
moment
22:16
but before we do
22:18
let's move to room six twenty three says
for the wages of sin
22:22
the wages of breaking god's law
22:24
is death
22:26
but the free gift of god is eternal life
22:28
in christ jesus our lord
22:31
you see how it changes the connotation
alarming university just ever so
22:35
slightly
22:36
is when you actually define it
22:38
as breaking god's law which is what the
definition is first john three four
22:42
and what we have his
22:43
the wages are breaking the commandments
22:46
is death
22:47
have you ever wondered why
22:50
where condemned to death anyway why we
even needed to savior
22:53
you know we go around and we and we are
evangelism we tell people about the
22:56
messiah and we say you need to know
jesus will that's great and we and they
23:00
said well why do i need to know jesus
23:03
at our first our first equations there
because you're sad
23:06
you've said
23:08
well here's the question when we
actually tell them that the reason why
23:11
don't you savior's because they say and
do we really understand
23:15
what we're saying is the reason why you
need a savior is because you broke
23:21
the commandments of god
23:23
and the law
23:25
says
23:26
that you
23:29
so unless you want to die
23:31
you need a savior
23:32
to save you
23:35
that is due to you for breaking
23:38
the law
23:39
that was given
23:40
so long ago
23:44
so the breakdown this is how it works
23:46
the law was given to the entire world
through his people is a real
23:50
that were to be a light to the nation's
remember
23:52
is a real was was a people that were
called out by god
23:57
they were called out my god and veered
job was to be a light to the nation's
24:02
does that sound let
24:04
familiar at all
24:06
does that sound familiar in the new
testament when jesus says that
24:09
that he is a light to the nation's
24:11
but when he says that
24:13
you our delight to the world
24:15
that sitting on the hill cannot be hit
24:17
do you think might any chance
24:19
that these young jewish boys that grew
up alarming the commandments
24:22
they knew that israel was a chosen
people they knew that they were chosen
24:26
to be a light to the nation's
24:28
he wasn't telling them anything new
24:29
he was bringing to bear remembrance
24:32
they're very
24:33
god
24:35
purpose in life
24:36
which is to take the instructions that
he gave adam
24:40
that he gave to noah
24:41
but he passed on down to abraham
24:44
and they finally gave it to moses eroded
stone so that we would forgive it
24:49
that he'd finally came in person and
said this is how i want you to keep it
24:53
i want you to take
24:55
mine ball my commandments
24:57
and take the gusto lessons that now
anybody can come into my kingdom of the
25:01
part of my people is worth
25:04
through the spirited through the faith
in the trust a michael imi the son of
25:07
god
25:08
that is the gospel
25:10
that is being a light to the nation's he
was simply
25:13
continuing the very message that he gave
their forefathers
25:16
when they dropped the ball
25:20
secondly the law of god was never
intended
25:24
just for israel
25:25
the entire world
25:27
is under its jurisdiction let's just
look at what paul says in romans chapter
25:30
three
25:31
verse nineteen says now we know that
whatever the law says
25:35
it says to those who are
25:37
under the law
25:39
there's that term again that miss
understood sir
25:41
so that every mouth maybe chirac
25:44
and all the world may be guilty
25:47
before god
25:49
you see paul is telling us right here
25:52
that the entire world is subject to the
law
25:57
the entire world is subject to the law
25:59
it's not just israel it's not just the
jewish people it's the entire
26:04
everyone is falls and anita jurisdiction
26:11
everyone has broken his law
26:13
and has fallen short
26:15
of his glory
26:16
romans three twenty three
26:20
the wages of breaking ya ways wall
26:23
is death we know this we just not
putting to view together
26:27
but the reason why we die
26:29
is because we broke the commandments
26:33
now here's the question
26:34
why
26:36
do we die
26:38
white is it
26:39
that the breaking of god's law is death
why is it that the very thing that that
26:43
that was supposed to be given for a life
26:46
became death to us as paul set
26:48
you see because paul talks about the law
26:52
sometimes in a negative way
26:53
we take it that the entire law of god
26:56
is negative that it's a curse that it's
evil know what he's actually doing is
27:00
he's giving us a very good definition of
exactly what the law does
27:05
sore next slide we're going to show you
is
27:07
what the law actually does it only does
27:10
three things
27:13
number one
27:14
it blesses us
27:16
when we keep it
27:18
did rodney eleven twenty six
27:20
says that i said before you blessings
27:23
and curses
27:25
number two it curses you
27:27
when you break it
27:28
when we break it
27:30
it courses us that's what it's designed
to do it and thirdly
27:34
it defines what's in this
27:36
first john three four person
27:39
is the transgression of law
27:41
you're on eleven twenty six as is the
whole die set before you this day
27:45
and blessing
27:46
and a curse and my friends that was not
just for israel
27:50
that was for all of us
27:52
okay it was for the entire world
27:54
that when you c_n_n_ you break god's law
27:58
you deserve death
28:00
now remember the law as a static
document
28:03
the only person that can change it
28:05
is the one that wrote it
28:07
okay we cannot get in there and change
and say well we don't like this we don't
28:10
like that
28:11
because that's exactly what our
forefathers did that's exactly
28:14
with the israel lights det
28:16
on mount sinai with the written word was
was given when the word of god was given
28:21
the spirit was also supposed to be given
28:24
remember
28:25
they decided against that plant
28:27
they want to know this is to go up they
wanted to king they didn't want to be
28:31
preset
28:31
of a living dot i have a personal
relationship
28:34
you see only half
28:35
on the sanity that only half of the word
of god was given
28:38
on mount sinai
28:39
it was the written instructions
28:42
but how many of you realize that if you
28:44
give h aisle
28:46
and eight-year-old a book on math and
just say
28:49
here is the the instruction manual
28:51
it's going to be very difficult for him
to
28:54
or her to implement that into the life
without a teacher without a helper you
28:58
see
28:58
but they didn't want to help for that i
want a personal relationship
29:01
they wanted
29:02
to figure it out on their own they
wanted someone to rule over them so god
29:05
given exactly what they want
29:08
and twelve hundred years later
29:11
the day a pentecost came the second time
29:14
except this time
29:16
they were ready
29:17
and they wanted it
29:18
and the holy spirit fell upon them on
the feast of shall book
29:21
and fulfilled what they should have
received
29:24
all the way back on the mount sinai on
the day of panic awesome on the first
29:27
time
29:28
so together
29:29
they have both the spirit now
29:32
and the truth
29:33
and they walked in a and that's why
there was power
29:36
he seemed the law only does three things
it defines what sentence
29:40
it curses us
29:41
and blesses us
29:43
certainly we can possibly say that if
you're nice to your spouse or a few
29:47
you're good to your kids
29:48
and you bring them up in a good way that
there's not blessings
29:51
where do you think those blessings are
coming from
29:54
they're coming from the very thing that
we call the messiah you sheila
29:58
jesus
29:59
and we call him the word
30:01
made flash
30:02
well the first century when jones said
30:04
the word became flash
30:07
what was his definition
30:08
of work
30:10
it was the torah
30:12
the instructions for life
30:14
the very thing that was called the way
30:16
the truth
30:17
and the life
30:18
in the old testament was called the sect
of the way in the new test that why
30:24
jesus when he
30:25
when he tore open his
30:26
his his robe and who he really was he
said i love the way
30:29
the truth and the life
30:31
the reason why the the the the rabbis in
the pharisees incentives in the people
30:35
was shock and disbelief and worship
shocked
30:39
is because they knew what the way the
truth of the life really what's
30:43
it was the torah that they grew up with
what this man into the rabbi you sure
30:47
was calling himself
30:49
was the living
30:51
the living instruction manual for life
30:54
dickey after he would die we send the
helper
30:57
the teacher's aide to teach us how to
live
31:00
civil law allies gelation says is unto
31:04
christ
31:05
absolutely there's no more authority
over there is no condemnation
31:09
for those are in christ you can see how
it works we look at it
31:12
as the laws here
31:14
the sumi
31:15
yetta laws here
31:16
christ is here
31:17
until means not existing afterwards
31:20
but the whole context is talking about
of
31:23
forty
31:24
the law has no authority to condemn
31:26
messiah there's a new sheriff in town
31:28
he's the one
31:29
the decides who stays
31:31
yahoogroups
31:32
if you were in him
31:34
then you're forgiven
31:36
let's move on
31:38
so we broke the law and we all deserve
31:42
we know that glazier three thirteen says
crisis redeemed us
31:45
from the curse of the law
31:47
be made a curse for us for his written
curses everyone
31:50
that hangs on a tree
31:52
the law itself is not the problem
31:55
it is the curse upon all mankind because
of our disobedience
32:01
rahman seven says
32:03
what shall we say that
32:05
is the loss in
32:06
god forbid no i'd had not known cn but
by
32:11
the law
32:12
was stopper just a moment
32:14
and just end and go over runs sheppard
seven for just a second
32:17
we've all you know we everyone knows the
romans seven says the things i don't
32:20
want to do i do two things i do want to
do it i don't know if you did it right
32:24
bum what strikingly amazing is on my
journey as i begin to look through these
32:28
new pair of glasses
32:30
did he break perspective of the author
when you go back and interpret roman
32:34
seven
32:34
what paul is saying
32:36
is that want
32:38
today expertly keep the law of god
32:40
but i can't
32:42
at the end of the chapter it says with a
my mind i'm a slave the god's law
32:47
and my heart i'm a slave to send what a
wretched man the night
32:50
he wants to keep
32:51
the law of god the very
32:54
percent very
32:55
apostle that we accuse of getting rid of
god's law
32:57
is the very person that wants to keep it
33:00
do we see a problem with that
33:02
the problem is is that he's fine himself
constantly old war with the flash
33:08
spirit
33:08
and the flash
33:09
he's trying his best to keep it
33:11
buddies forgiven i remember the very
33:13
last of our very first person in romans
chapter eight
33:17
should be the last verse roman seven
because it says this
33:20
therefore
33:21
there is no condemnation for those who
are in christ jesus
33:25
is an incredible thing
33:26
is that we are condemned by the by the
law
33:29
we are cursed
33:30
and we should be hung on a tree but the
messiah took that chris upon us
33:34
died for us so that we can be free from
the curse
33:36
not free from the law
33:39
from the penalty
33:40
that'd gifts
33:43
so here's a couple million dollar
questions your number one
33:46
if we are not to keep a law of god
33:49
then why does virtually every author of
the scriptures including james jun paul
33:54
in jesus chels to keep the commandments
33:58
remember jesus and matthew
34:00
the the rich young ruler comes to him
34:03
and says i i had a white enter into
34:06
by eternal life
34:07
and jesus says will keep the
commandments
34:11
well who are more familiar with the
second part of that which says they
34:14
don't sell everything you know he says
well i did that
34:17
we forget that jesus actually told him
you sure said goin keep the commands
34:22
diddy only mean that for a couple of
months
34:25
jilly died
34:26
or was he telling him it eternal
principle
34:28
was utilityman eternal principal that
would last forever
34:32
you see that rich young really was not
going to die
34:34
he was going to live for many years past
that
34:37
you sure was giving him
34:39
the principles for life
34:41
he says you've been taught
34:43
that the way the truth of life
34:45
is the commandments themselves
34:47
he says i submit to you that alright
34:50
and the way the truth in the white that
if you pair
34:52
the return commandments with the spirit
of what i'm telling you who i am
34:58
you will have eternal life
35:00
you see there's a reason why revelation
35:02
in the end days the beast goes after
35:04
those who keep the commandments of god
35:07
and hold to the testimony of your shoe
35:12
or million-dollar question number two
35:15
if the law of god is done away with
35:18
which we've all been told
35:20
and the definition of sin is breaking
the law of god
35:23
first john three four then how can there
be
35:27
such a thing is that
35:28
how can there be any possibility
35:31
that they're innocent even exist
35:33
if we're not under the law of god
35:35
if there is no law
35:39
and last or at least number three
35:41
how could there possibly be such a thing
is judgment day
35:45
if there is no standard of lol
35:47
to judge by
35:49
how can any would be thrown into the
lake of fire for breaking the law
35:53
if they were not subject to to begin
with
35:57
the logic is a circular reasoning that
breaks down and so many places as we
36:02
begin to look at this you'll begin to
see that if you have no long you have no
36:06
sense if you have no say in you have no
curse
36:12
either wall still exist and content
condemns people for breaking it
36:17
and the savior is needed to pay the
penalty or it doesn't exist and we don't
36:21
need a savior
36:22
think about what we're saying
36:26
the long run doesn't exist anymore for
today's been mailed to the cross it's
36:29
been done away with it's been a buzzword
renew cabinet were under grace with
36:32
that's the case my friends then here's
what we have to
36:36
we have a situation where there is no
law which means there is no definition
36:39
of sin
36:40
which means that they're in the law
cannot condemn anyone
36:43
there's no curves
36:44
which means we don't need a savior to
take the curse upon us
36:48
and we're all still
36:50
that inner sense
36:51
we don't need a savior
36:52
it how on earth can god how can he
always have a judgment day in throw
36:55
people into a hell
36:57
for breaking something that we say
doesn't exist
37:01
why should we even go to tell people
about jesus christ the messiah tissue
37:07
why should we even tell them that they
need a savior
37:09
when our very core of our beliefs says
that
37:12
they're not under a curse
37:15
there's no transgression
37:17
because we believe that the law's been
done away with
37:20
the only laws that exist
37:22
we say are those found or reiterated in
the new testament
37:25
and my friends the logic
37:28
is faulty on several points
37:30
we have no new testament
37:31
when these are written
37:32
so when they give us the gospel of the
writers of the new has would give us the
37:35
very gospel that we share with people
37:38
they're telling their people
37:41
that they need to save your because they
broke the law of god and we're telling
37:43
people that they need a savior
37:46
because they broke a law on the new
testament
37:49
ever so slightly different
37:51
the critical outcome
37:53
critical conclusion
37:55
because how we love our life is directly
37:57
attached
37:58
to how we define
37:59
this very definition
38:04
we know that the law condemns and curses
all mankind for breaking it
38:08
usual became the curse for us and paid
or penalty
38:12
for breaking the law which is death
38:14
the law was the problem this is what
we're saying
38:16
the wall was the problem so he mailed
the law to the cross and no one has to
38:21
keep it anymore even though he brew says
that
38:24
he found fault
38:27
he did find fault with the law
38:29
remember timothy tells us that the law
of god is perfect
38:33
he says it's a perfect and holy and it's
worthy for all doctrine for all reprieve
38:38
and correction and a way of
righteousness
38:44
so now that there is no law this is what
we say
38:47
there can be no course either
38:49
which means there is no longer
38:50
and me for a savior to save us from our
sins because there's no such thing as so
38:53
many more
38:54
because sin
38:55
is a transgression
38:57
of god's law
39:00
such as solve this problem we as
christians have said
39:03
that the only commandments
39:05
that we need to keep
39:07
are found in the new testament even when
the new test that writers told us to
39:10
keep the commandments of god there was
no
39:13
new testament
39:14
and you know what
39:15
it's a good thing that were under grace
because
39:18
we need it my friends
39:19
we need it
39:21
for we have been deceived by the enemy
39:24
that wasn't just the high priesthood
39:27
and sacrificial system
39:28
that was changed or fulfilled why should
say
39:31
but that the whole thing need to be
thrown out
39:34
see here's another thought
39:36
if the law of god has been done away
with as we've been we've been told we've
39:39
all grown up believing
39:41
and that means the sacrificial system
has been done away with let me shock you
39:44
for a moment
39:45
the sacrificial system
39:47
has never
39:48
been done away with
39:50
now you may say don't jim you're really
off off the deep end no think about it
39:54
you sure
39:55
jesus became our high priests
39:58
if the sacrificial blueprints have been
done away with
40:02
that we don't need pipe reach there
can't be a high priest one doesn't exist
40:07
you see the sacrificial system does
exist
40:10
messiah is are high priest
40:12
for the very reason that the sacrificial
system exist
40:16
blood still is required
40:18
because we broke the law
40:19
the difference is is he became he
fulfilled the sacrificial system once
40:24
and for all he became the sacrifice for
all sacrifices
40:27
it doesn't mean that the blueprint
40:29
is done away with it means that the
animal sacrifice itself has been the
40:33
fulfill
40:34
in the messiah
40:39
here's the amazing fact
40:40
not only has gods
40:42
lol been done away with is the enemy
taught us that the law of god and done
40:45
away with
40:46
the enemy has absolutely
40:50
taught us or helped us wallow
40:52
that it was god's idea
40:54
there was actually god's idea to get rid
of his own law
40:57
when his law is hot it is is is actually
his son
41:01
the son of god is the law of god it's
the word made flesh
41:05
certainly
41:05
god wouldn't get rid of his own son
41:09
sin
41:10
is the transgression
41:11
of the law
41:12
without the lol
41:13
there's nothing to transgress
41:15
without a transgression there's no sin
41:18
without sin
41:19
there is no sheet issuer
41:23
so is the law bad
41:24
or is it good
41:26
rahman seven twelve says where for the
law is holding
41:29
and the commandment holy
41:30
and just
41:33
why would ya way to get rid of something
that is holy
41:39
let me ask you a question does your
belief system say
41:42
that the law is wholly
41:44
in good
41:45
or that it's evil
41:46
it's bondage
41:47
it's man-made continues to be done away
with
41:52
and more and at the beginning
41:55
let's go back to genesis chapter three
verse one recess now the serpent was
41:59
more cutting that any beast of the field
which ya weight had make
42:02
and he said to the woman has god indeed
said you shall not be at every tree at
42:07
the garden
42:08
and the woman said to the surface
42:09
we make the of the for the trees in the
garden
42:12
but of the fruit of the tree which is in
the midst of a garden dot of said you
42:15
shall not be that nor show you touch it
lest you die
42:18
than the circuit said to the woman
42:20
you will not surely die
42:23
and here's what happened
42:25
here's a detail here's the board prints
god gave them a wall
42:29
number two the serpent told them that he
didn't really mean it
42:34
god gave us a law
42:37
we teach
42:38
that he really didn't mean it
42:43
or we sure
42:44
we haven't been deceived twice
42:47
my friends
42:48
this is a critical issue
42:51
if we define a sin
42:53
any other way
42:56
them breaking the commandments of god
42:58
if we could find says breaking the
commands of god there's not breaking the
43:03
commands of god we're gonna find
ourselves in the same situation is in
43:06
the garden with a circus tricking us
over in over and over again
43:10
now i understand and i will admit that
there are a lot of difficult verses that
43:14
have to go
43:15
that we have to work through and the
third part in this series is actually
43:18
the difficult signs up lol
43:20
it's the twenty five sum up verses in
the scriptures that seemed to say
43:25
that paul same but the law of god
43:27
is done away with
43:28
but the truth is is that it is you begin
to put the key brave glasses
43:32
it all had on
43:33
you'll see
43:34
just like we talked about a romans word
says
43:36
the book that we're not under the law
43:38
were under grace
43:39
that now you understand that it doesn't
mean that we're not we have to keep it
43:43
it means that
43:44
we're not under the penalty other
anymore
43:46
and are so many verses like that like
the one ingle ations it says that the
43:51
law was unto christ
43:53
no it means that the laws authority is
unto the messiah
43:56
and now has a new sheriff in town the
symbol are still exist
44:00
but the father doesn't come home and
shifted to order
44:02
the tutors still there
44:04
but he has no authority
44:06
when the fathers in the house
44:07
so that's where we're at today my
friends we need to define same exactly
44:11
the way the scriptures tools to define
it and no more
44:15
if we work to the left
44:16
if we walked to the life did to the
right if we add or take away from this
44:20
word my friends we are curved
44:22
is like ass you today
44:24
to open your mind and work through the
next part of the series
44:28
which is what is the new covenant
44:30
because we are to take this whole
definition of right into this the the
44:34
series of the definition of what the new
cabinet is
44:37
and as we walk out of a exactly what the
new companies
44:40
we'll have a belief system
44:41
that the disciples had that we can walk
and power will come
44:45
now leave you with this thought
44:46
the father says that he is looking for
those who will do one thing
44:50
worships him and spirit
44:53
and in truth
44:54
i submit to the now is the time
44:57
today is the day
44:59
that we get rid of the truth the
traditions and the doctrines of man
45:03
that we bobbitt our belief system
45:05
that we audit every doctor we tell every
other religious colt that they need to
45:09
audit there's now's the time that we
ought to art because we are the bride of
45:13
christ and the groom is coming back and
he is ready and waiting he's coming back
45:17
for a bride that'd without spot for
rachael
45:22
please this day join with me
45:24
to follow the messiah exactly
45:27
that he and his father this kid in
spirit
45:31
entry
45:33
father thank you so much for the
opportunity just
45:36
dig into your word to dig into your
scriptures to define things the way that
45:40
you define it
45:41
your word tells us father that if we
were just follow you and trust you that
45:46
you would lead us into all the trees
45:48
and that truth only does one thing
45:49
it sets us free father open up our
hearts
45:52

the you bring

The word "SCRIPTURE" is 53 times and refers to the Old Testament only. once in the New Testament. Once in the bible speaks of Old Testament and vail.not taken away example { bridal vail};
.New Testament 6 times. By Spirit not By Letter for redemption of transgressions
I am very aware of the attack on religion. I see myself as a defender of religion and religious faith in Christ Jesus as in the James 1:26, 27, . I am beginning to understand Matthew 13:25.· -
I love Jim's teachings, they have helped me grow. However here when he says that the Israelites thought they were worshipping God and had only replaced Moses, I disagree. Ex. 32:1 clearly says that .....they gathered around Aaron and said, "Come, make us gods who will go before us." And then two verses later after making the golden calf, they say, "These are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of Egypt." They were looking for an alternative and they knew it.·
