What we hear everyday;
"I'm not saying that one is saved by their works, BUT
BUT BUT BUT BUT.........you better have that which
CAN'T save you, works, obedience, less sin, more
tithing, more church attendance as evidence you are
saved"
This illogical fallacy is present in every Lordship
argument.
When the law came in it found man spiritually dead in
Adam and the penalty of death residing on him.
“but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you
shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall
surely die.””
Genesis 2:17 ESV
“For as by the one man’s disobedience the many
were made sinners, so by the one man’s obedience
the many will be made righteous.”
Romans 5:19 ESV
The demand of the law for RIGHTEOUSNESS for
sinful man was never obedience. It has always been
DEATH. The law never found man with the ability to
keep it for righteousness, because when it came in it
found man already dead in ADAM. The law tells man
your penalty is death, not obey and live.....its too late
for that.
Are we to be obedient to Gods Law? Yes, but not for
righteousness because we can't. Christ is our
righteousness by His death and that death imputed/
credited to His elect. Those for whom He died.
The law tells us what God now demands of sinful
man.....death.
The gospel tells us that Christ paid that death by His
death for His elect. And in time, one at a time, the
elect are imputed/credited with His death, born
again/regenerated by God, given the gift of faith to
look upon, rest in that death as their righteousness
alone.
“She will bear a son, and you shall call his name
Jesus, for he WILL SAVE HIS PEOPLE (the elect)
from their sins.””
Matthew 1:21 ESV
“For if, because of one man’s trespass, DEATH
reigned through that one man, much more will those
who receive the abundance of grace and the FREE
GIFT of righteousness reign in life through the one
man Jesus Christ.”
Romans 5:17 ESV
“But when Christ had offered for all time a single
sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of
God, waiting from that time until his enemies should
be made a footstool for his feet. For by a single
offering he has perfected for all time those who are
being sanctified (the elect in time, one at a time,
being effectually called by the gospel of their already
accomplished redemption at the cross by His death,
Eph 1:13).”
Hebrews 10:12-14 ESV
His death wasn't a provision. It was a definite,
completed, paid in full redemption for all of the sins
past, present, and future for all His elect. It is
finished. 1 Like |

When we seek Christ, God gives us salvation through that faith,
He then does good works in us, leading us to grow in faith and character.
God does it all. We seek to begin with, perhaps He even leads us to that.
Eph 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Eph 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
Eph 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. 2 Likes 1 Share |
