"Greetings in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for 14 February 2012"
Today's Bible Verse: Romans 5:19 "For by one man's disobedience, many were made sinners, so also by one Man's obedience many will be made righteous."
"Disobedience" (sins), are specific acts that violate standards established by God and also focuses attention on a corrupt human nature. Sin lives in the human personality. It is a distortion of that which God created, a warping of our natural desires, understandings, and wills, so that we want and choose what is wrong.
Made, means "to make," "constitute." As the result of Adam's sin, the human race became sinners. But by the death of Jesus Christ "many will be made"righteous." That is, believers are actually being constituted or made righteous. Through the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit, the believer who has been declared righteous by God is continually becoming more righteous.
"Death" is a complex term in the Old and New Testaments. Here, in this portion of Scripture, it is not so much biological, as a description of our spiritual condition, where we are powerless in the grasp of an inner moral corruption, that alienates us from God and makes final judgment a dread certainty. Adam's sin, insinuated both biological, and spiritual death to us, making both our present, and our future dark and grim.
Because of the death of Jesus Christ and His resurrection, Jesus now interjects eternal life, the opposite of death, making us alive to God and guaranteeing, a bright and eternal future (Praise God).
Adam introduced death, and sin in our experience, and bringing us under condemnation, and releasing those dark forces, that make our life's short and miserable. In contrast, Christ (the second Adam), created in us a new nature, that is righteous rather than sinful, upheld by grace, rather than weighed down by failure, alive, rather than dead to the bright hope of life lived in the light of God's holiness and love. My Brothers and Sisters in Jesus Christ, ALL things truly have BECOME NEW, once your sins are forgiven and the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit lives in and through you.
Today's Hymn: Great Is Thy Faithfulness"
Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father, there is no shadow of turning with Thee
Thou changest not, Thy compassion's they fail not, As Thou hast been, Thou forever will be
Great is Thy Faithfulness! Great is Thy Faithfulness! Morning by morning new mercies I see
All I have needed Thy hand hast provided, Great is Thy Faithfulness, Lord, unto me.
Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, than you for making us righteous through the shed blood of Your Son Jesus Christ. who died to set us free, and release us from the shackles of the bondage of sin, and eternal death. We thank you, and Praise You Name, that we now belong to Christ, and our heritage in Him, is righteousness and eternal life. Amen
Today's Biblical Truth: "Jesus interjects life, which is the opposite of death, making us alive to God and guaranteeing a bright eternal future." "Praise God"
