ATTAINING RIGHTEOUSNESS IN NATURE : A GIFT FROM GOD ,AND NOT BY WORKS OF MAN

[/color]

By the law God reveals the weakness of man to man .
For God demanded that the man should live righteously ,and become righteous ,and perfect through the law ,but man because of the weakness of his flesh was unable to keep the law,and ended up in his unrighteousness still .
So God brought the same righteousness man was struggling to attain by his own power before the man and offered it as a gift to man,and then demanded that HE SHOULD RECEIVE IT BY FAITH
through the grace of Jesus Christ the son of God .

So any man who accept Jesus as his lord and savior will be imparted with righteousness as a gift without having to work or pay for it .
It is given freely by the grace of God because of what Jesus had done on the cross.
Jesus has paid for it ,and God is ready to give it to any man whosoever believes that Jesus has indeed paid for it on his or her behalf by dying on the cross .
And would for that reason accept Jesus as his or her personal lord and savior.

If you sincerely believe in the message of the gospel you heard then you should
confess Jesus as your personal lord and savior and confess that he died on the cross and rose again with your mouth .
After confessing that, then you have become saved and born again .
the next step is to join a bible believing church but pray before adjoining any church .
Pray by asking the father in the name of Jesus that he leads you to the right place where your destiny in Christ will be realized in it fullness .

1. What exactly does that statement mean to you?, undecided

2. Was it not through the keeping of God's Law that all men deemed righteous by God were justified by Him? Beginning with Abel, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Job, John the Baptist. Zechariah, etc., was it not through the keeping of God's Law - continuous submission and obedience of His teachings(and commandments) that God eventually rendered them righteousness by His standard which is the very same Law?, undecided

3. Jesus Christ is God's New Covenant Law in the Kingdom of God, and according to Jesus, to have faith in Him means to live one's life in continuous submission to and obedience of His teachings(and commandments) , the very requirements that God mandated of those of His Old Covenant Law of Moses, and even of Adam before us all. So are you certain you begin to understand God in this?, undecided

4. Jesus Christ lived His life on earth in submission and obedience of God's Old Covenant Law of Moses by which standard He attained righteousness. That Covenant was made by God with those who have the blood of Jacob coursing through their veins. So only those born jews can have that righteousness impacted to them and this is order to free them from the debt they owe God's Old Covenant. That righteousness however does not however cancel their new debt under God’s New Covenant and Law which is a different and separate standard of righteousness altogether. undecided

Stop spreading lies. Do you need to be imparted upon to avoid sleeping with someone's husband or wife? Or to avoid causing harm to someone? Or to give help?

Sometimes it would be a waste of time to answer those who are sent out or brought themselves out to pervert the way of truth .

When you see those under the influence of spirit of falsehood you should know how to deal with them .

Sometimes it is good to ignore the ignorant .

Be honest! You are simply not able to confront any of the errors revealed of what is your doctrine when compared with that taught by Jesus Christ. undecided

God never told men most of that which you claim in regards to His own Law. Instead men fed you the doctrines which you gobble up where it concerns God's Law, lies that deceived people away from God's Truth. undecided

You claim God's Word is infallible but it is your Bible which you all worship rather than the one who is written as His Word, Jesus Christ. undecided

A person's destiny in Christ is the paramount reason why that person is brought into God's family .

Destiny is a concept that is foreign to those in the Kingdom of God. This is because all those who are called are, all of them, called to become like Jesus Christ, rather than live life in submission to their personal will and ideas. This is what Jesus Christ taught to His disciples. You cannot become like Jesus Christ and at the same time submit to being ruled by your own desires and will. This is what is scriptural. undecided

What does the scriptures says concerning our birth into God's kingdom ?

And for what purpose were we redeemed from the state of falling men to elated men ?

Very close to what I was expecting to hear.


All the saints, servants and messengers of Yahushua the Messiah have been called and are called to conform to his image. This is the will of YHVH Almighty, our Father in heaven, for all his children. This does not negate the fact that each saint, servant or messenger has a task assigned to him or her by YHVH Almighty. He endows each one with power to accomplish his or her task. In fact, you will never realize who you are until you have submitted to the Word of YHVH Almighty --- obedience to his Commandments.

When most people talk about destiny, they mostly mean buying cars, building houses, getting education, getting married, travelling out of the country, getting a job, buying the best clothes and shoes, etc. These are very mundane things.

The same task that was given the first is also given to the last - Matthew 20 vs 1 - 20 - so it is of next to no importance how the work is accomplished but that the work is in fact accomplished and done right(in submission and obedience of Jesus Christ's teachings and commandments). Those who are of His flock will all be judged on whether each accomplished the very same task given or not - Matthew 25 vs 31 - 46 - so these ideas of destiny are meaningless where God's Kingdom is concerned. undecided

You have spoken well .

What does it mean to be conform into the image of Christ and How do one bring about the realization or actualization of that ?

John 14:23 Yahushua replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.

1 John 2:3 We know that we have come to know him if we keep his commands. 4 Whoever says, “I know him,” but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in that person. 5 But if anyone obeys his word, love for YHVH is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in him: 6 Whoever claims to live in him must live as Yahushua did.

Study the Scriptures.
Obey the Commandments of YHVH Almighty.

Our righteousness is received from God .
We live righteously from what he has give unto us ,we can of ourselves do nothing .

No man can get to the point where he is without sin ,and unto righteousness unless he confesses Jesus has lord and Savior believing in him .
