WE NEED A SAVIOR AND HIS PERFECT SACRIFICE, BECAUSE OF THE LAW.
Let us go back to the beginning and move forward. This is a study for babes in Christ Jesus and for the mature also. I believe that it will help everyone.
THIS IS A LONG STUDY BUT NEEDED TO EXPLAIN IN DETAIL WHY WE ALL NEED A SAVIOR
God created a garden in Eden. This garden was perfection, all Adam had to do was take care of it and enjoy Heaven on earth. God told Adam not to do one thing and that was about a tree. The tree was forbidden to eat from. Every other tree else was permitted to eat.
This one tree was called, The Tree Of The Knowledge Of Good And Evil. Adam ate of The Tree and that was the first time men sinned. God cast Adam and Eve out of the garden in Eden and they had to start over from nothing and do all of the work themselves.
Genesis 2:15-17
And The Lord God Took The Man, And Put Him Into The Garden Of Eden To Dress It And To Keep It. And The Lord God Commanded The Man, Saying, Of Every Tree Of The Garden Thou Mayest Freely Eat: But Of The Tree Of The Knowledge Of Good And Evil, Thou Shalt Not Eat Of It: For In The Day That Thou Eatest Thereof Thou Shalt Surely Die.
Genesis 3:6-12,17-19,23-24
And When The Woman Saw That The Tree Was Good For Food, And That It Was Pleasant To The Eyes, And A Tree To Be Desired To Make One Wise, She Took Of The Fruit Thereof, And Did Eat, And Gave Also Unto Her Husband With Her; And He Did Eat. And The Eyes Of Them Both Were Opened, And They Knew That They Were Naked; And They Sewed Fig Leaves Together, And Made Themselves Aprons. And They Heard The Voice Of The Lord God Walking In The Garden In The Cool Of The Day: And Adam And His Wife Hid Themselves From The Presence Of The Lord God Amongst The Trees Of The Garden. And The Lord God Called Unto Adam, And Said Unto Him, Where Art Thou? And He Said, I Heard Thy Voice In The Garden, And I Was Afraid, Because I Was Naked; And I Hid Myself. And He Said, Who Told Thee That Thou Wast Naked? Hast Thou Eaten Of The Tree, Whereof I Commanded Thee That Thou Shouldest Not Eat? And The Man Said, The Woman Whom Thou Gavest To Be With Me, She Gave Me Of The Tree, And I Did Eat.
[17] And Unto Adam He Said, Because Thou Hast Hearkened Unto The Voice Of Thy Wife, And Hast Eaten Of The Tree, Of Which I Commanded Thee, Saying, Thou Shalt Not Eat Of It: Cursed Is The Ground For Thy Sake; In Sorrow Shalt Thou Eat Of It All The Days Of Thy Life; Thorns Also And Thistles Shall It Bring Forth To Thee; And Thou Shalt Eat The Herb Of The Field; In The Sweat Of Thy Face Shalt Thou Eat Bread, Till Thou Return Unto The Ground; For Out Of It Wast Thou Taken: For Dust Thou Art, And Unto Dust Shalt Thou Return.
[23] Therefore The Lord God Sent Him Forth From The Garden Of Eden, To Till The Ground From Whence He Was Taken. So He Drove Out The Man; And He Placed At The East Of The Garden Of Eden Cherubims, And A Flaming Sword Which Turned Every Way, To Keep The Way Of The Tree Of Life.
Now, this is the beginning of a pattern of how men would live for many, many years. God will create something perfect and men will break it.
God created The Law that He wrote in stone. Moses came down with The Law that God had written and dropped them and broke them. Moses got angry with the Jewish people and in his anger, he threw The Stone Tablets on the ground and broke them.
Exodus 31:18
And He Gave Unto Moses, When He Had Made An End Of Communing With Him Upon Mount Sinai, Two Tables Of Testimony, Tables Of Stone, Written With The Finger Of God.
Exodus 32:15-16
And Moses Turned, And Went Down From The Mount, And The Two Tables Of The Testimony Were In His Hand: The Tables Were Written On Both Their Sides; On The One Side And On The Other Were They Written. And The Tables Were The Work Of God, And The Writing Was The Writing Of God, Graven Upon The Tables.
Exodus 32:19
And It Came To Pass, As Soon As He Came Nigh Unto The Camp, That He Saw The Calf, And The Dancing: And Moses' Anger Waxed Hot, And He Cast The Tables Out Of His Hands, And Brake Them Beneath The Mount.
Moses saw the evil of the Jewish people and he went back up to God and asked Him to put their sins on him, God said no, that every person has to bear their own sins before Him.
Exodus 32:31-35
And Moses Returned Unto The Lord, And Said, Oh, This People Have Sinned A Great Sin, And Have Made Them Gods Of Gold. Yet Now, If Thou Wilt Forgive Their Sin--; And If Not, Blot Me, I Pray Thee, Out Of Thy Book Which Thou Hast Written. And The Lord Said Unto Moses, Whosoever Hath Sinned Against Me, Him Will I Blot Out Of My Book. Therefore Now Go, Lead The People Unto The Place Of Which I Have Spoken Unto Thee: Behold, Mine Angel Shall Go Before Thee: Nevertheless In The Day When I Visit I Will Visit Their Sin Upon Them. And The Lord Plagued The People Because They Made The Calf, Which Aaron Made.
When Moses went back up to see God, God told him to chisel out of stone two more tablets like the first ones. So Moses did. You can see the pattern here too. God created something and men breaks it, then he has to do the work himself.
Exodus 34:1,4
And The Lord Said Unto Moses, Hew Thee Two Tables Of Stone Like Unto The First: And I Will Write Upon These Tables The Words That Were In The First Tables, Which Thou Brakest.
[4] And He Hewed Two Tables Of Stone Like Unto The First; And Moses Rose Up Early In The Morning, And Went Up Unto Mount Sinai, As The Lord Had Commanded Him, And Took In His Hand The Two Tables Of Stone.
The Law was given by God to the Jewish people to live by.
The Law Is The Life And Death Of Not Only The Jewish People But The Whole World. The Law Is Blessings And Cursings. The Law Is A Very Big Deal, The Biggest. You break The Law and do not have an atonement for your sin the wrath of God is upon you. You have to pay for your own sins. The payment for sin is Death, Hell, And One Day The Lake Of Fire.
Back to Moses and The Jewish people.
EVERY COMMAND OF GOD HAS BLESSINGS AND CURSINGS. IF YOU KEEP THE WHOLE LAW YOU WILL BE BLESSED, IF YOU BREAK THE LAW YOU WILL BE CURSED.
Galatians 3:10-13
FOR AS MANY AS ARE OF THE WORKS OF THE LAW ARE UNDER THE CURSE: FOR IT IS WRITTEN, CURSED IS EVERY ONE THAT CONTINUETH NOT IN ALL THINGS WHICH ARE WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF THE LAW TO DO THEM. BUT THAT NO MAN IS JUSTIFIED BY THE LAW IN THE SIGHT OF GOD, IT IS EVIDENT: FOR, THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH.
AND THE LAW IS NOT OF FAITH: BUT, THE MAN THAT DOETH THEM SHALL LIVE IN THEM. CHRIST HATH REDEEMED US FROM THE CURSE OF THE LAW, BEING MADE A CURSE FOR US: FOR IT IS WRITTEN, CURSED IS EVERY ONE THAT HANGETH ON A TREE:
Moses read all of The Law to the people and they all said Amen to it. When the people said Amen to The Law that meant they were willing to live by it and keep every part of it. The Jewish people agreed to The terms of God.
Deuteronomy 27:26
CURSED BE HE THAT CONFIRMETH NOT ALL THE WORDS OF THIS LAW TO DO THEM. AND ALL THE PEOPLE SHALL SAY, AMEN.
One example of the Jewish people saying Amen is found in verse 15, there are many more. You can read 15 through 26 of Deuteronomy chapter 27.
Deuteronomy 27:1,11,15
And Moses With The Elders Of Israel Commanded The People, Saying, Keep All The Commandments Which I Command You This Day.
[11] And Moses Charged The People The Same Day, Saying,
[15] Cursed Be The Man That Maketh Any Graven Or Molten Image, An Abomination Unto The Lord, The Work Of The Hands Of The Craftsman, And Putteth It In A Secret Place. And All The People Shall Answer And Say, Amen.
Joshua 1:8
This Book Of The Law Shall Not Depart Out Of Thy Mouth; But Thou Shalt Meditate Therein Day And Night, That Thou Mayest Observe To Do According To All That Is Written Therein: For Then Thou Shalt Make Thy Way Prosperous, And Then Thou Shalt Have Good Success.
They were to teach The Law to their children, diligently. The Jewish people were to rise thinking about The Law when they sit down when they lay. The Law is to be in their minds at all times.
EVERY NEW LEADER OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE READ THE BOOK OF THE LAW TO ALL OF THE PEOPLE SO THEY WOULD ALL KNOW THE LAW AND THAT THEY WERE GOING TO KEEP IT.
Deuteronomy 6:6-9
And These Words, Which I Command Thee This Day, Shall Be In Thine Heart: And Thou Shalt Teach Them Diligently Unto Thy Children, And Shalt Talk Of Them When Thou Sittest In Thine House, And When Thou Walkest By The Way, And When Thou Liest Down, And When Thou Risest Up. And Thou Shalt Bind Them For A Sign Upon Thine Hand, And They Shall Be As Frontlets Between Thine Eyes. And Thou Shalt Write Them Upon The Posts Of Thy House, And On Thy Gates.
Joshua 8:34-35
And Afterward He Read All The Words Of The Law, The Blessings And Cursings, According To All That Is Written In The Book Of The Law. There Was Not A Word Of All That Moses Commanded, Which Joshua Read Not Before All The Congregation Of Israel, With The Women, And The Little Ones, And The Strangers That Were Conversant Among Them.
As I stated before, the cost of sin means the wrath of God is against you, death, Hell is your punishment.
YOU HAVE TO HAVE AN ATONEMENT!
If you don't then when time is over, death and hell will give up the dead that are in them and they all will be cast into the lake of fire. Every sinner will be judged and cast into The Lake Of Fire.
Revelation 20:13-15
And The Sea Gave Up The Dead Which Were In It; And Death And Hell Delivered Up The Dead Which Were In Them: And They Were Judged Every Man According To Their Works. And Death And Hell Were Cast Into The Lake Of Fire. This Is The Second Death. And Whosoever Was Not Found Written In The Book Of Life Was Cast Into The Lake Of Fire.
NOW TO THE GOOD TIDINGS AND GREAT JOY!
Luke 2:10-11
And The Angel Said Unto Them, Fear Not: For, Behold, I Bring You Good Tidings Of Great Joy, Which Shall Be To All People. FOR UNTO YOU IS BORN THIS DAY IN THE CITY OF DAVID A SAVIOUR, WHICH IS CHRIST THE LORD.
Matthew 1:21-23
And She Shall Bring Forth A Son, And Thou Shalt Call His Name Jesus: For He Shall Save His People From Their Sins. Now All This Was Done, That It Might Be Fulfilled Which Was Spoken Of The Lord By The Prophet, Saying, Behold, A Virgin Shall Be With Child, And Shall Bring Forth A Son, And They Shall Call His Name Emmanuel, Which Being Interpreted Is, God With Us.
John 1:29
The Next Day John Seeth Jesus Coming Unto Him, And Saith, Behold The Lamb Of God, Which Taketh Away The Sin Of The World.
Ephesians 1:6-7
To The Praise Of The Glory Of His Grace, Wherein He Hath Made Us Accepted In The Beloved. In Whom We Have Redemption Through His Blood, The Forgiveness Of Sins, According To The Riches Of His Grace;
Colossians 1:12-14
Giving Thanks Unto The Father, Which Hath Made Us Meet To Be Partakers Of The Inheritance Of The Saints In Light: Who Hath Delivered Us From The Power Of Darkness, And Hath Translated Us Into The Kingdom Of His Dear Son: In Whom We Have Redemption Through His Blood, Even The Forgiveness Of Sins:
Matthew 5:17-18
Think Not That I Am Come To Destroy The Law, Or The Prophets: I Am Not Come To Destroy, But To Fulfil. For Verily I Say Unto You, Till Heaven And Earth Pass, One Jot Or One Tittle Shall In No Wise Pass From The Law, Till All Be Fulfilled.
Luke 24:44
And He Said Unto Them, These Are The Words Which I Spake Unto You, While I Was Yet With You, That ALL THINGS MUST BE FULFILLED, WHICH WERE WRITTEN IN THE LAW OF MOSES, AND IN THE PROPHETS, AND IN THE PSALMS, CONCERNING ME.
1 Timothy 1:4-11
Neither Give Heed To Fables And Endless Genealogies, Which Minister Questions, RATHER THAN GODLY EDIFYING WHICH IS IN FAITH: So Do. Now The End Of The Commandment Is Charity Out Of A Pure Heart, And Of A Good Conscience, And Of FAITH UNFEIGNED: From Which Some Having Swerved Have Turned Aside Unto Vain Jangling; Desiring To Be Teachers Of The Law; Understanding Neither What They Say, Nor Whereof They Affirm. But We Know That The Law Is Good, If A Man Use It Lawfully; Knowing This, THAT THE LAW IS NOT MADE FOR A RIGHTEOUS MAN, But For THE LAWLESS And DISOBEDIENT, FOR THE UNGODLY And For SINNERS, FOR UNHOLY And PROFANE, For MURDERERS Of Fathers And Murderers Of Mothers, For MANSLAYERS, For WHOREMONGERS, FOR THEM THAT DEFILE THEMSELVES WITH MANKIND, For MENSTEALERS, For LIARS, For PERJURED PERSONS, AND IF THERE BE ANY OTHER THING THAT IS CONTRARY TO SOUND DOCTRINE; ACCORDING TO THE GLORIOUS GOSPEL OF THE BLESSED GOD, Which Was Committed To My Trust.
1 Corinthians 6:9-20
Know Ye Not That The Unrighteous Shall Not Inherit The Kingdom Of God? Be Not Deceived: Neither Fornicators, Nor Idolaters, Nor Adulterers, Nor Effeminate, Nor Abusers Of Themselves With Mankind, Nor Thieves, Nor Covetous, Nor Drunkards, Nor Revilers, Nor Extortioners, Shall Inherit The Kingdom Of God. And Such Were Some Of You: But Ye Are Washed, But Ye Are Sanctified, BUT YE ARE JUSTIFIED IN THE NAME OF THE LORD JESUS, AND BY THE SPIRIT OF OUR GOD. All Things Are Lawful Unto Me, But All Things Are Not Expedient: All Things Are Lawful For Me, But I Will Not Be Brought Under The Power Of Any. Meats For The Belly, And The Belly For Meats: But God Shall Destroy Both It And Them. Now THE BODY IS NOT FOR FORNICATION, BUT FOR THE LORD; AND THE LORD FOR THE BODY. And God Hath Both Raised Up The Lord, And Will Also Raise Up Us By His Own Power. KNOW YE NOT THAT YOUR BODIES ARE THE MEMBERS OF CHRIST? Shall I Then Take The Members Of Christ, And Make Them The Members Of An Harlot? God Forbid. What? Know Ye Not That He Which Is Joined To An Harlot Is One Body? For Two, Saith He, Shall Be One Flesh. BUT HE THAT IS JOINED UNTO THE LORD IS ONE SPIRIT. Flee Fornication. Every Sin That A Man Doeth Is Without The Body; But He That Committeth Fornication Sinneth Against His Own Body. What? KNOW YE NOT THAT YOUR BODY IS THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY GHOST WHICH IS IN YOU, WHICH YE HAVE OF GOD, AND YE ARE NOT YOUR OWN? FOR YE ARE BOUGHT WITH A PRICE: THEREFORE GLORIFY GOD IN YOUR BODY, AND IN YOUR SPIRIT, WHICH ARE GOD'S.
Colossians 3:5-10
Mortify Therefore Your Members Which Are Upon The Earth; FORNICATION, UNCLEANNESS, INORDINATE AFFECTION, EVIL CONCUPISCENCE, AND COVETOUSNESS, WHICH IS IDOLATRY: For Which Things' Sake THE WRATH OF GOD COMETH ON THE CHILDREN OF DISOBEDIENCE: In The Which Ye Also Walked Some Time, When Ye Lived In Them. BUT NOW YE ALSO PUT OFF ALL THESE; ANGER, WRATH, MALICE, BLASPHEMY, FILTHY COMMUNICATION OUT OF YOUR MOUTH. LIE NOT ONE TO ANOTHER, SEEING THAT YE HAVE PUT OFF THE OLD MAN WITH HIS DEEDS; AND HAVE PUT ON THE NEW MAN, WHICH IS RENEWED IN KNOWLEDGE AFTER THE IMAGE OF HIM THAT CREATED HIM:
Titus 3:2-8
To Speak Evil Of No Man, To Be No Brawlers, But Gentle, Shewing All Meekness Unto All Men. For We Ourselves Also Were Sometimes Foolish, Disobedient, Deceived, Serving Divers Lusts And Pleasures, Living In Malice And Envy, Hateful, And Hating One Another. But After That The Kindness And Love Of God Our Saviour Toward Man Appeared, Not By Works Of Righteousness Which We Have Done, But According To His Mercy He Saved Us, By The Washing Of Regeneration, And Renewing Of The Holy Ghost; Which He Shed On Us Abundantly Through Jesus Christ Our Saviour; That Being Justified By His Grace, We Should Be Made Heirs According To The Hope Of Eternal Life. This Is A Faithful Saying, And These Things I Will That Thou Affirm Constantly, That They Which Have Believed In God Might Be Careful To Maintain Good Works. These Things Are Good And Profitable Unto Men.
Colossians 3:3
FOR YE ARE DEAD, AND YOUR LIFE IS HID WITH CHRIST IN GOD.
Let No Man Deceive You,
He That Committeth Sin Is Of The Devil,
HE THAT DOETH RIGHTEOUSNESS IS RIGHTEOUS, EVEN AS HE IS RIGHTEOUS!
Romans 3:20-21
Therefore By The Deeds Of The Law There Shall No Flesh Be Justified In His Sight: FOR BY THE LAW IS THE KNOWLEDGE OF SIN. But Now The Righteousness Of God Without The Law Is Manifested, Being Witnessed By The Law And The Prophets;
Hebrews 10:2b.
BECAUSE THAT THE WORSHIPPERS ONCE PURGED SHOULD HAVE HAD NO MORE CONSCIENCE OF SINS.
Luke 16:16
THE LAW AND THE PROPHETS WERE UNTIL JOHN: SINCE THAT TIME THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS PREACHED, And Every Man Presseth Into It.
Romans 6:14
For Sin Shall Not Have Dominion Over You: For Ye Are Not Under The Law, But Under Grace.
Romans 7:4-6
Wherefore, My Brethren, Ye Also Are Become Dead To The Law By The Body Of Christ; That Ye Should Be Married To Another, Even To Him Who Is Raised From The Dead, That We Should Bring Forth Fruit Unto God. For When We Were In The Flesh, The Motions Of Sins, Which Were By The Law, Did Work In Our Members To Bring Forth Fruit Unto Death. But Now We Are Delivered From The Law, That Being Dead Wherein We Were Held; That We Should Serve In Newness Of Spirit, And Not In The Oldness Of The Letter.
Romans 8:2-4
FOR THE LAW OF THE SPIRIT OF LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS HATH MADE ME FREE FROM THE LAW OF SIN AND DEATH. FOR WHAT THE LAW COULD NOT DO, IN THAT IT WAS WEAK THROUGH THE FLESH, GOD SENDING HIS OWN SON IN THE LIKENESS OF SINFUL FLESH, AND FOR SIN, CONDEMNED SIN IN THE FLESH: THAT THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF THE LAW MIGHT BE FULFILLED IN US, WHO WALK NOT AFTER THE FLESH, BUT AFTER THE SPIRIT.
1 John 3:1-9
Behold, What Manner Of Love The Father Hath Bestowed Upon Us, That We Should Be Called The Sons Of God: Therefore The World Knoweth Us Not, Because It Knew Him Not. Beloved, Now Are We The Sons Of God, And It Doth Not Yet Appear What We Shall Be: But We Know That, When He Shall Appear, We Shall Be Like Him; For We Shall See Him As He Is. And Every Man That Hath This Hope In Him Purifieth Himself, Even As He Is Pure. Whosoever Committeth Sin Transgresseth Also The Law: For Sin Is The Transgression Of The Law. And Ye Know That He Was Manifested To Take Away Our Sins; And In Him Is No Sin. Whosoever Abideth In Him Sinneth Not: Whosoever Sinneth Hath Not Seen Him, Neither Known Him. Little Children, Let No Man Deceive You: He That Doeth Righteousness Is Righteous, Even As He Is Righteous. He That Committeth Sin Is Of The Devil; For The Devil Sinneth From The Beginning. For This Purpose The Son Of God Was Manifested, That He Might Destroy The Works Of The Devil. Whosoever Is Born Of God Doth Not Commit Sin; For His Seed Remaineth In Him: And He Cannot Sin, Because He Is Born Of God.
John 3:3,5-6
JESUS ANSWERED AND SAID UNTO HIM, VERILY, VERILY, I SAY UNTO THEE, EXCEPT A MAN BE BORN AGAIN, HE CANNOT SEE THE KINGDOM OF GOD.
[5] JESUS ANSWERED, VERILY, VERILY, I SAY UNTO THEE, EXCEPT A MAN BE BORN OF WATER AND OF THE SPIRIT, HE CANNOT ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF GOD. THAT WHICH IS BORN OF THE FLESH IS FLESH; AND THAT WHICH IS BORN OF THE SPIRIT IS SPIRIT.
Romans 8:9-10,15
BUT YE ARE NOT IN THE FLESH, BUT IN THE SPIRIT, IF SO BE THAT THE SPIRIT OF GOD DWELL IN YOU. NOW IF ANY MAN HAVE NOT THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST, HE IS NONE OF HIS. AND IF CHRIST BE IN YOU, THE BODY IS DEAD BECAUSE OF SIN; BUT THE SPIRIT IS LIFE BECAUSE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.
[15] FOR YE HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE SPIRIT OF BONDAGE AGAIN TO FEAR; BUT YE HAVE RECEIVED THE SPIRIT OF ADOPTION, WHEREBY WE CRY, ABBA, FATHER.
Colossians 3:3
FOR YE ARE DEAD, AND YOUR LIFE IS HID WITH CHRIST IN GOD.
AS YOU CAN READ IN CHRIST JESUS THERE IS NO CURSE ONLY BLESSINGS! THROUGH FAITH IN HIS PERFECT SACRIFICE WE ARE AT PEACE WITH GOD!
PRAISE THE LORD!!!
