Note: In order to review what I'm discussing here, please so to time 43 Minute to 45 Minute.
This Morning The Lord placed the following heavily on my heart to share. I was moved in my spirit by the Holy Ghost - The Spirit of Christ Jesus himself as showing me His WILL for me in teaching the WORD of God to go over the following again. But this time more methodically, deliberate and precise by a deeper study in order to achieve a deeper understanding of something so crucial for the Body of Christ.
Today, by His Great GRACE I will focus on BY vs THROUGH and give examples:
Romans 5:1
“Therefore being justified by
faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:”
King James Version (KJV)
Romans 3:30
“Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.”
King James Version (KJV)
Titus 3:7
“That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.”
King James Version (KJV)
In Genesis 22, God tests Abraham's faith by asking him to sacrifice his son Isaac, whom Abraham dearly loves. Abraham obediently takes Isaac to the land of Moriah, where he builds an altar and prepares to sacrifice him. At the last moment, an angel of the Lord stops Abraham, acknowledging his unwavering faith. Instead, God provides a ram caught in a thicket to be sacrificed in Isaac's place. This story highlights Abraham's faith and obedience to God, and it underscores God's provision and faithfulness.
The ROYAL LAW - LAW OF MOSES in The King James Version of the Bible, Moses commands animal sacrifice in several passages throughout the books of Exodus, Leviticus, and Numbers. One significant example is found in Leviticus 1:1-3, where instructions for burnt offerings are given:
> "And the LORD called unto Moses, and spake unto him out of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man of you bring an offering unto the LORD, ye shall bring your offering of the cattle, even of the herd, and of the flock. If his offering be a burnt sacrifice of the herd, let him offer a male without blemish: he shall offer it of his own voluntary will at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the LORD."
Jesus Christ fulfilled the law. This concept is rooted in various passages, most notably in Matthew 5:17, where Jesus Himself says:
"Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil."
The fulfillment of the law by Jesus is a fundamental belief in Christianity. It implies that through His life, teachings, and sacrificial death, Jesus met all the requirements of the Mosaic Law and the prophets, thereby bringing a new covenant between God and humanity. This perspective suggests that Jesus' fulfillment of the law transcends the literal commandments and embodies a deeper spiritual purpose.
As we walk and Live as Christians, we have to understand that our WORK is the WORK ACCOMPLISHED ALREADY BY JESUS CHRIST's PERFECT SACRIFICE. HE FULFILLED THE LAW OF MOSES BY THE LAW OF LIBERTY.
“Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.”
King James Version (KJV)
When examining closely James 2:24 we find the word JUSTIFY = G1344 in context of James Chapter 2 is G1166 which is the EVIDENCE or PROOF of SALVATION; i.e., that which is shown and seen = FRUIT.
Matthew 7:20
“Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.”
King James Version (KJV)
Romans 3:22
“Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:”
King James Version (KJV)
Therefore James 2 is proof James is addressing saved individuals and not the unsaved. And therefore, the FRUIT referred to in Matthew 7:20 is GOOD FRUIT and NOT BAD.
Furthermore we have proof that in the context of numerous scriptures like Romans 5:1 Titus 3:7 and Galatians 2:16, the word JUSTIFICATION from G1344 is to be RENDERED RIGHTEOUS = RETURNED from your former state as NOW RIGHT or PERFECTLY ACCEPTABLE TO GOD.
