SERVANTS OF THE LAW, SIN, OR SERVANTS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

SERVANTS OF THE LAW, SIN,

OR SERVANTS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

ARE WE SERVANTS OF THE LAW, SIN,

OR SERVANTS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH IS GRACE THROUGH FAITH?

GOD SAID THROUGH EZEKIEL 

Ezekiel 11:19 

And I Will Give Them One Heart, And I Will Put A New Spirit Within You; And I Will Take The Stony Heart Out Of Their Flesh, And Will Give Them An Heart Of Flesh:

Ezekiel 36:26 

A New Heart Also Will I Give You, And A New Spirit Will I Put Within You: And I Will Take Away The Stony Heart Out Of Your Flesh, And I Will Give You An Heart Of Flesh.

JESUS CHRIST SAID 

John 3:3-7 

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. Nicodemus Saith Unto Him, How Can A Man Be Born When He Is Old? Can He Enter The Second Time Into His Mother's Womb, And Be Born?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. Marvel Not That I Said Unto Thee, YE MUST BE BORN AGAIN.

GOD SAID THROUGH PAUL 

2 Corinthians 3:3 

Forasmuch As Ye Are Manifestly Declared To Be The Epistle Of Christ Ministered By Us, Written Not With Ink, But With The Spirit Of The Living God; Not In Tables Of Stone, But In Fleshy Tables Of The Heart.

Romans 6:14 

For Sin Shall Not Have Dominion Over You: For Ye Are Not Under The Law, But Under Grace.

Galatians 3:3 

Are Ye So Foolish? Having Begun In The Spirit, Are Ye Now Made Perfect By The Flesh?

Romans 8:9 

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.

Romans 6:17 

But God Be Thanked, That Ye Were The Servants Of Sin, But Ye Have Obeyed From The Heart That Form Of Doctrine Which Was Delivered You.

2 Corinthians 3:6-8 

Who Also Hath Made Us Able Ministers Of The New Testament; Not Of The Letter, But Of The Spirit: For The Letter Killeth, But The Spirit Giveth Life. But If The Ministration Of Death, Written And Engraven In Stones, Was Glorious, So That The Children Of Israel Could Not Stedfastly Behold The Face Of Moses For The Glory Of His Countenance; Which Glory Was To Be Done Away: How Shall Not The Ministration Of The Spirit Be Rather Glorious?

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;

Galatians 4:1-7 

Now I Say, That The Heir, As Long As He Is A Child, Differeth Nothing From A Servant, Though He Be Lord Of All; But Is Under Tutors And Governors Until The Time Appointed Of The Father. Even So We, When We Were Children, Were In Bondage Under The Elements Of The World: But When The Fulness Of The Time Was Come, God Sent Forth His Son, Made Of A Woman, Made Under The Law, To Redeem Them That Were Under The Law, That We Might Receive The Adoption Of Sons. And Because Ye Are Sons, GOD HATH SENT FORTH THE SPIRIT OF HIS SON INTO YOUR HEARTS, Crying, Abba, Father. Wherefore Thou Art No More A Servant, But A Son; And If A Son, Then An Heir Of God Through Christ.

WHEN WE WERE UNDER THE LAW WE WERE SERVANTS TO KEEP THE WHOLE LAW OR BE CURSED. JUST LIKE A SERVANT IS PUNISHED WHEN HE DISOBEYED HIS MASTER, WHEN WE BREAK THE LAW WE WILL RECEIVE PUNISHMENT FROM GOD. 

GOD CALLS THE PUNISHMENT FOR BREAKING HIS LAW, BEING UNDER THE CURSE. 

READ

Galatians 3:10 

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.

JESUS CHRIST BECAME SIN SO THAT HE COULD TAKE THE PUNISHMENT, THE CURSE ON HIMSELF TO PAY THE PENALTY WHICH IS HELL. 

READ

Acts 2:25-27,30-32 

For David Speaketh Concerning Him, I Foresaw The Lord Always Before My Face, For He Is On My Right Hand, That I Should Not Be Moved: Therefore Did My Heart Rejoice, And My Tongue Was Glad; Moreover Also My Flesh Shall Rest In Hope: Because Thou Wilt Not Leave My Soul In Hell, Neither Wilt Thou Suffer Thine Holy One To See Corruption. 

[30] Therefore Being A Prophet, And Knowing That God Had Sworn With An Oath To Him, That Of The Fruit Of His Loins, According To The Flesh, He Would Raise Up Christ To Sit On His Throne; He Seeing This Before Spake Of The Resurrection Of Christ, That His Soul Was Not Left In Hell, Neither His Flesh Did See Corruption. This Jesus Hath God Raised Up, Whereof We All Are Witnesses. 

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:

GOD SAID THROUGH JOHN

1 John 3:2-10 

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. In This The Children Of God Are Manifest, And The Children Of The Devil: Whosoever Doeth Not Righteousness Is Not Of God, Neither He That Loveth Not His Brother.

OUR SUFFICIENCY IS OF GOD

OUR SUFFICIENCY IS OF GOD

2 Corinthians 3:5 

Not That We Are Sufficient Of Ourselves To Think Any Thing As Of Ourselves; But OUR SUFFICIENCY IS OF GOD;

John 3:16-18 

For God So Loved The World, That He Gave His Only Begotten Son, That Whosoever Believeth In Him Should Not Perish, But Have Everlasting Life. For God Sent Not His Son Into The World To Condemn The World; But That The World Through Him Might Be Saved. He That Believeth On Him Is Not Condemned: But He That Believeth Not Is Condemned Already, Because He Hath Not Believed In The Name Of The Only Begotten Son Of God.

1 John 4:9-10 

In This Was Manifested The Love Of God Toward Us, Because That God Sent His Only Begotten Son Into The World, That We Might Live Through Him. Herein Is Love, Not That We Loved God, But That He Loved Us, And Sent His Son To Be The Propitiation For Our Sins.

Hebrews 7:24-27 

But This Man, Because He Continueth Ever, Hath An Unchangeable Priesthood. Wherefore He Is Able Also To Save Them To The Uttermost That Come Unto God By Him, Seeing He Ever Liveth To Make Intercession For Them. For Such An High Priest Became Us, Who Is Holy, Harmless, Undefiled, Separate From Sinners, And Made Higher Than The Heavens; Who Needeth Not Daily, As Those High Priests, To Offer Up Sacrifice, First For His Own Sins, And Then For The People's: For This He Did Once, When He Offered Up Himself.

Hebrews 10:12-23 

But This Man, After He Had Offered One Sacrifice For Sins For Ever, Sat Down On The Right Hand Of God; From Henceforth Expecting Till His Enemies Be Made His Footstool. For By One Offering He Hath Perfected For Ever Them That Are Sanctified. Whereof The Holy Ghost Also Is A Witness To Us: For After That He Had Said Before, This Is The Covenant That I Will Make We With Them After Those Days, Saith The Lord, I Will Put My Laws Into Their Hearts, And In Their Minds Will I Write Them; And Their Sins And Iniquities Will I Remember No More. Now Where Remission Of These Is, There Is No More Offering For Sin. Having Therefore, Brethren, Boldness To Enter Into The Holiest By The Blood Of Jesus, By A New And Living Way, Which He Hath Consecrated For Us, Through The Veil, That Is To Say, His Flesh; And Having An High Priest Over The House Of God; Let Us Draw Near With A True Heart In Full Assurance Of Faith, Having Our Hearts Sprinkled From An Evil Conscience, And Our Bodies Washed With Pure Water. Let Us Hold Fast The Profession Of Our Faith Without Wavering; (FOR HE IS FAITHFUL THAT PROMISED;)

Romans 3:24-26 

Being Justified Freely By His Grace Through The Redemption That Is In Christ Jesus: Whom GOD Hath Set Forth To Be A Propitiation Through Faith In His Blood, To Declare His Righteousness For The Remission Of Sins That Are Past, Through The Forbearance Of God; To Declare, I Say, At This Time His Righteousness: That He Might Be Just, And The Justifier Of Him Which Believeth In Jesus.

Ephesians 1:16-23 

Cease Not To Give Thanks For You, Making Mention Of You In My Prayers; That The God Of Our Lord Jesus Christ, The Father Of Glory, May Give Unto You The Spirit Of Wisdom And Revelation In The Knowledge Of Him: The Eyes Of Your Understanding Being Enlightened; That Ye May Know What Is The Hope Of His Calling, And What The Riches Of The Glory Of His Inheritance In The Saints, And What Is The Exceeding Greatness Of His Power To Us-ward Who Believe, ACCORDING TO THE WORKING OF HIS MIGHTY POWER, WHICH HE WROUGHT IN CHRIST, When He Raised Him From The Dead, And Set Him At His Own Right Hand In The Heavenly Places, Far Above All Principality, And Power, And Might, And Dominion, And Every Name That Is Named, Not Only In This World, But Also In That Which Is To Come: And Hath Put All Things Under His Feet, And Gave Him To Be The Head Over All Things To The Church, Which Is His Body, The Fulness Of Him That Filleth All In All.

Romans 12:1-2 

I Beseech You Therefore, Brethren, By The Mercies Of God, That Ye Present Your Bodies A Living Sacrifice, Holy, Acceptable Unto God, Which Is Your Reasonable Service. And Be Not Conformed To This World: But Be Ye Transformed By The Renewing Of Your Mind, That Ye May Prove What Is That Good, And Acceptable, And Perfect, Will Of God.

Ephesians 5:1-2 

Be Ye Therefore Followers Of God, As Dear Children; And Walk In Love, As Christ Also Hath Loved Us, And Hath Given Himself For Us An Offering And A Sacrifice To God For A Sweetsmelling Savour.

Ephesians 4:30 

And Grieve Not The Holy Spirit Of God, Whereby Ye Are Sealed Unto The Day Of Redemption.

2 Corinthians 1:20-22 

For All The Promises Of God In Him Are Yea, And In Him Amen, Unto The Glory Of God By Us. Now HE WHICH STABLISHETH US WITH YOU IN CHRIST, AND HATH ANOINTED US, IS GOD; Who HATH ALSO SEALED US, AND GIVEN THE EARNEST OF THE SPIRIT IN OUR HEARTS.

QUICKENING SPIRIT

QUICKENING SPIRIT

John 3:5-7 

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. Marvel Not That I Said Unto Thee, YE MUST BE BORN AGAIN.

1 Corinthians 15:45 

And So It Is Written, The First Man Adam Was Made A Living Soul; THE LAST ADAM WAS MADE A QUICKENING SPIRIT.

Romans 8:9 

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.

1 Corinthians 15:22 

For As In Adam All Die, EVEN SO IN CHRIST SHALL ALL BE MADE ALIVE.

Ephesians 2:1-10 

AND YOU HATH HE QUICKENED, Who Were Dead In Trespasses And Sins; Wherein In Time Past Ye Walked According To The Course Of This World, According To The Prince Of The Power Of The Air, The Spirit That Now Worketh In The Children Of Disobedience: Among Whom Also We All Had Our Conversation In Times Past In The Lusts Of Our Flesh, Fulfilling The Desires Of The Flesh And Of The Mind; And Were By Nature The Children Of Wrath, Even As Others. But God, Who Is Rich In Mercy, FOR HIS GREAT LOVE WHEREWITH HE LOVED US, EVEN WHEN WE WERE DEAD IN SINS, HATH QUICKENED US TOGETHER WITH CHRIST, (By Grace Ye Are Saved;) And Hath Raised Us Up Together, And Made Us Sit Together In Heavenly Places In Christ Jesus: That In The Ages To Come He Might Shew The Exceeding Riches Of His Grace In His Kindness Toward Us Through Christ Jesus. For By Grace Are Ye Saved Through Faith; And That Not Of Yourselves: It Is The Gift Of God: Not Of Works, Lest Any Man Should Boast. For We Are His Workmanship, Created In Christ Jesus Unto Good Works, Which God Hath Before Ordained That We Should Walk In Them.

1 Corinthians 2:16 

For Who Hath Known The Mind Of The Lord, That He May Instruct Him? BUT WE HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST.

John 15:15 

Henceforth I Call You Not Servants; For The Servant Knoweth Not What His Lord Doeth: BUT I HAVE CALLED YOU FRIENDS; FOR ALL THINGS THAT I HAVE HEARD OF MY FATHER I HAVE MADE KNOWN UNTO YOU.

Romans 8:26-28 

Likewise The Spirit Also Helpeth Our Infirmities: For We Know Not What We Should Pray For As We Ought: But The Spirit Itself Maketh Intercession For Us With Groanings Which Cannot Be Uttered. And He That Searcheth The Hearts Knoweth What Is The Mind Of The Spirit, Because He Maketh Intercession For The Saints According To The Will Of God. And We Know That All Things Work Together For Good To Them That Love God, To Them Who Are The Called According To His Purpose.

Romans 6:1-23 

What Shall We Say Then? Shall We Continue In Sin, That Grace May Abound? God Forbid. How Shall We, That Are Dead To Sin, Live Any Longer Therein? KNOW YE NOT, THAT SO MANY OF US AS WERE BAPTIZED INTO JESUS CHRIST WERE BAPTIZED INTO HIS DEATH? THEREFORE WE ARE BURIED WITH HIM BY BAPTISM INTO DEATH: THAT LIKE AS CHRIST WAS RAISED UP FROM THE DEAD BY THE GLORY OF THE FATHER, EVEN SO WE ALSO SHOULD WALK IN NEWNESS OF LIFE. For If We Have Been Planted Together In The Likeness Of His Death, We Shall Be Also In The Likeness Of His Resurrection: Knowing This, That Our Old Man IS Crucified With Him, That The Body Of Sin Might Be Destroyed, That Henceforth We Should Not Serve Sin. FOR HE THAT IS DEAD IS FREED FROM SIN. NOW IF WE BE DEAD WITH CHRIST, WE BELIEVE THAT WE SHALL ALSO LIVE WITH HIM: KNOWING THAT CHRIST BEING RAISED FROM THE DEAD DIETH NO MORE; DEATH HATH NO MORE DOMINION OVER HIM. FOR IN THAT HE DIED, HE DIED UNTO SIN ONCE: BUT IN THAT HE LIVETH, HE LIVETH UNTO GOD. LIKEWISE RECKON YE ALSO YOURSELVES TO BE DEAD INDEED UNTO SIN, BUT ALIVE UNTO GOD THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD. Let Not Sin Therefore Reign In Your Mortal Body, That Ye Should Obey It In The Lusts Thereof. Neither Yield Ye Your Members As Instruments Of Unrighteousness Unto Sin: BUT YIELD YOURSELVES UNTO GOD, AS THOSE THAT ARE ALIVE FROM THE DEAD, AND YOUR MEMBERS AS INSTRUMENTS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS UNTO GOD. For Sin Shall Not Have Dominion Over You: For Ye Are Not Under The Law, But Under Grace. What Then? Shall We Sin, Because We Are Not Under The Law, But Under Grace? GOD FORBID. Know Ye Not, That To Whom Ye Yield Yourselves Servants To Obey, His Servants Ye Are To Whom Ye Obey; Whether Of Sin Unto Death, OR OF OBEDIENCE UNTO RIGHTEOUSNESS? BUT GOD BE THANKED, THAT YE WERE THE SERVANTS OF SIN, BUT YE HAVE OBEYED FROM THE HEART THAT FORM OF DOCTRINE WHICH WAS DELIVERED YOU. BEING THEN MADE FREE FROM SIN, YE BECAME THE SERVANTS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. I Speak After The Manner Of Men Because Of The Infirmity Of Your Flesh: For As Ye Have Yielded Your Members Servants To Uncleanness And To Iniquity Unto Iniquity; EVEN SO NOW YIELD YOUR MEMBERS SERVANTS TO RIGHTEOUSNESS UNTO HOLINESS. For When Ye WERE The Servants Of Sin, Ye WERE Free From Righteousness. What Fruit Had Ye Then In Those Things Whereof Ye Are Now Ashamed? For The End Of Those Things Is Death. BUT NOW BEING MADE FREE FROM SIN, AND BECOME SERVANTS TO GOD, YE HAVE YOUR FRUIT UNTO HOLINESS, AND THE END EVERLASTING LIFE. For The Wages Of Sin Is Death; BUT THE GIFT OF GOD IS ETERNAL LIFE THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD.

Romans 8:1-2 

THERE IS THEREFORE NOW NO CONDEMNATION TO THEM WHICH ARE IN CHRIST JESUS, Who Walk Not After The Flesh, BUT AFTER THE SPIRIT. FOR THE LAW OF THE SPIRIT OF LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS HATH MADE ME FREE From The Law Of Sin And Death.

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.

Romans 6:11 

LIKEWISE RECKON YE ALSO YOURSELVES TO BE DEAD INDEED UNTO SIN, BUT ALIVE UNTO GOD THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD.

CHRIST HATH REDEEMED US FROM THE CURSE OF THE LAW

CHRIST HATH REDEEMED US FROM THE CURSE OF THE LAW

Romans 6:14 

For Sin Shall Not Have Dominion Over You: For Ye Are Not Under The Law, But Under Grace.

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:

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.

Hebrews 1:1-3 

God, Who At Sundry Times And In Divers Manners Spake In Time Past Unto The Fathers By The Prophets, Hath In These Last Days Spoken Unto Us By His Son, Whom He Hath Appointed Heir Of All things, By Whom Also He Made The Worlds; Who Being The Brightness Of His Glory, And The Express Image Of His Person, And Upholding All Things By The Word Of His Power, When He Had By Himself Purged Our Sins, Sat Down On The Right Hand Of The Majesty On High;

Hebrews 10:2b.

Because That The Worshippers Once Purged Should Have Had No More Conscience Of Sins.

Romans 3:19-28 

Now We Know That What Things Soever The Law Saith, It Saith To Them Who Are Under The Law: That Every Mouth May Be Stopped, And All The World May Become Guilty Before God. 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; 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: For All Have Sinned, And Come Short Of The Glory Of God; Being Justified Freely By His Grace Through The Redemption That Is In Christ Jesus: Whom God Hath Set Forth To Be A Propitiation Through Faith In His Blood, To Declare His Righteousness For The Remission Of Sins That Are Past, Through The Forbearance Of God; To Declare, I Say, At This Time His Righteousness: That He Might Be Just, And The Justifier Of Him Which Believeth In Jesus. Where Is Boasting Then? It Is Excluded. By What Law? Of Works? Nay: But By The Law Of Faith. Therefore We Conclude That A Man Is Justified By Faith Without The Deeds Of The Law.

Romans 6:6-23 

Knowing This, That Our Old Man Is Crucified With Him, That The Body Of Sin Might Be Destroyed, That Henceforth We Should Not Serve Sin. For He That Is Dead Is Freed From Sin. Now If We Be Dead With Christ, We Believe That We Shall Also Live With Him: Knowing That Christ Being Raised From The Dead Dieth No More; Death Hath No More Dominion Over Him. For In That He Died, He Died Unto Sin Once: But In That He Liveth, He Liveth Unto God. Likewise Reckon Ye Also Yourselves To Be Dead Indeed Unto Sin, But Alive Unto God Through Jesus Christ Our Lord. Let Not Sin Therefore Reign In Your Mortal Body, That Ye Should Obey It In The Lusts Thereof. Neither Yield Ye Your Members As Instruments Of Unrighteousness Unto Sin: But Yield Yourselves Unto God, As Those That Are Alive From The Dead, And Your Members As Instruments Of Righteousness Unto God. For Sin Shall Not Have Dominion Over You: For Ye Are Not Under The Law, But Under Grace. What Then? Shall We Sin, Because We Are Not Under The Law, But Under Grace? God Forbid. Know Ye Not, That To Whom Ye Yield Yourselves Servants To Obey, His Servants Ye Are To Whom Ye Obey; Whether Of Sin Unto Death, Or Of Obedience Unto Righteousness? But God Be Thanked, That Ye Were The Servants Of Sin, But Ye Have Obeyed From The Heart That Form Of Doctrine Which Was Delivered You. Being Then Made Free From Sin, Ye Became The Servants Of Righteousness. I Speak After The Manner Of Men Because Of The Infirmity Of Your Flesh: For As Ye Have Yielded Your Members Servants To Uncleanness And To Iniquity Unto Iniquity; Even So Now Yield Your Members Servants To Righteousness Unto Holiness. For When Ye Were The Servants Of Sin, Ye Were Free From Righteousness. What Fruit Had Ye Then In Those Things Whereof Ye Are Now Ashamed? For The End Of Those Things Is Death. But Now Being Made Free From Sin, And Become Servants To God, Ye Have Your Fruit Unto Holiness, And The End Everlasting Life. For The Wages Of Sin Is Death; But The Gift Of God Is Eternal Life Through Jesus Christ Our Lord.

John 3:3-10 

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. Nicodemus Saith Unto Him, How Can A Man Be Born When He Is Old? Can He Enter The Second Time Into His Mother's Womb, And Be Born? 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. Marvel Not That I Said Unto Thee, Ye Must Be Born Again. The Wind Bloweth Where It Listeth, And Thou Hearest The Sound Thereof, But Canst Not Tell Whence It Cometh, And Whither It Goeth: So Is Every One That Is Born of the Spirit. Nicodemus Answered And Said Unto Him, How Can These Things Be? Jesus Answered And Said Unto Him, Art Thou A Master Of Israel, And Knowest Not These Things?

1 Corinthians 15:34 

Awake To Righteousness, And Sin Not; For Some Have Not The Knowledge Of God: I Speak This To Your Shame.

Romans 8:9-10 

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.

Colossians 2:6-15 

As Ye Have Therefore Received Christ Jesus The Lord, So Walk Ye In Him: Rooted And Built Up In Him, And Stablished In The Faith, As Ye Have Been Taught, Abounding Therein With Thanksgiving. Beware Lest Any Man Spoil You Through Philosophy And Vain Deceit, After The Tradition Of Men, After The Rudiments Of The World, And Not After Christ. For In Him Dwelleth All The Fulness Of The Godhead Bodily. And Ye Are Complete In Him, Which Is The Head Of All Principality And Power: In Whom Also Ye Are Circumcised With The Circumcision Made Without Hands, In Putting Off The Body Of The Sins Of The Flesh By The Circumcision Of Christ: Buried With Him In Baptism, Wherein Also Ye Are Risen With Him Through The Faith Of The Operation Of God, Who Hath Raised Him From The Dead. And You, Being Dead In Your Sins And The Uncircumcision Of Your Flesh, Hath He Quickened Together With Him, Having Forgiven You All Trespasses; Blotting Out The Handwriting Of Ordinances That Was Against Us, Which Was Contrary To Us, And Took It Out Of The Way, Nailing It To His Cross; And Having Spoiled Principalities And Powers, He Made A Shew Of Them Openly, Triumphing Over Them In It.

2 Corinthians 3:3-18

Forasmuch As Ye Are Manifestly Declared To Be The Epistle Of Christ Ministered By Us, Written Not With Ink, But With The Spirit Of The Living God; Not In Tables Of Stone, But In Fleshy Tables Of The Heart. And Such Trust Have We Through Christ To God-ward: Not That We Are Sufficient Of Ourselves To Think Any Thing As Of Ourselves; But Our Sufficiency Is Of God; Who Also Hath Made Us Able Ministers Of The New Testament; Not Of The Letter, But Of The Spirit: For The Letter Killeth, But The Spirit Giveth Life. But If The Ministration Of Death, Written And Engraven In Stones, Was Glorious, So That The Children Of Israel Could Not Stedfastly Behold The Face Of Moses For The Glory Of His Countenance; Which Glory Was To Be Done Away: How Shall Not The Ministration Of The Spirit Be Rather Glorious? For If The Ministration Of Condemnation Be Glory, Much More Doth The Ministration Of Righteousness Exceed In Glory. For Even That Which Was Made Glorious Had No Glory In This Respect, By Reason Of The Glory That Excelleth. For If That Which Is Done Away Was Glorious, Much More That Which Remaineth Is Glorious. Seeing then that we have such hope, we Use Great Plainness Of Speech: And Not As Moses, Which Put A Vail Over His Face, That The Children Of Israel Could Not Stedfastly Look To The End Of That Which Is Abolished: But Their Minds Were Blinded: For Until This Day Remaineth The Same Vail Untaken Away In The Reading Of The Old Testament; Which Vail Is Done Away In Christ. But Even Unto This Day, When Moses Is Read, The Vail Is Upon Their Heart. Nevertheless When It Shall Turn To The LORD, The Vail Shall Be Taken Away. Now The LORD Is That Spirit: And Where The Spirit Of The LORD Is, There Is Liberty. But We All, With Open Face Beholding As In A Glass The Glory Of The LORD, Are Changed Into The Same Image From Glory To Glory, Even As By The Spirit Of The LORD.

2 Peter 3:1 

This Second Epistle, Beloved, I Now Write Unto You; In Both Which I Stir Up Your Pure Minds By Way Of Remembrance:

REMEMBER AND KNOW, WHAT, WHY, AND WHEN, CHRIST JESUS DID FOR US TO BE BELOVED IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD!

HUNGER AND THIRST

HUNGER AND THIRST 

Matthew 5:6 

Blessed Are They Which Do Hunger And Thirst After Righteousness: For They Shall Be Filled.

John 6:35 

And Jesus Said Unto Them, I Am The Bread Of Life: He That Cometh To Me Shall Never Hunger; And He That Believeth On Me Shall Never Thirst.

John 4:13-14 

Jesus Answered And Said Unto Her, Whosoever Drinketh Of This Water Shall Thirst Again: But Whosoever Drinketh Of The Water That I Shall Give Him Shall Never Thirst; But The Water That I Shall Give Him Shall Be In Him A Well Of Water Springing Up Into Everlasting Life.

2 Corinthians 5:21 

For He Hath Made Him To Be Sin For Us, who Knew No Sin; That We Might Be Made The Righteousness Of God In Him.

Romans 3:24-26 

Being Justified Freely By His Grace Through The Redemption That Is In Christ Jesus: Whom God Hath Set Forth To Be A Propitiation Through Faith In His Blood, To Declare His Righteousness For The Remission Of Sins That Are Past, Through The Forbearance Of God; To Declare, I Say, At This Time His Righteousness: That He Might Be Just, And The Justifier Of Him Which Believeth In Jesus.

John 4:15 

THE WOMAN SAITH UNTO HIM, SIR, GIVE ME THIS WATER, THAT I THIRST NOT, NEITHER COME HITHER TO DRAW.
