Righteousness
of the law (of sin and death)
Is
fulfilled in us
Because
Jesus fulfilled that law, and the witness and evidence of Jesus’ Death is in us
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.
In
His Death we are Made Righteous
2
Corinthians 5:20-21 …be ye reconciled to God. 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
5:19 …so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.
1
Corinthians 1:30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us
wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
Because
He that is Love laid down His Life to pay for our sin
Righteousness
Comes Forth
Sin
is Condemned, Death reigns no more.
Romans
6:3-11
Know
ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized
into his death?
4
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.
5
For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be
also in the likeness of his resurrection:
6
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.
7
For he that is dead is freed from sin.
8
Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:
9 Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no
more dominion over him.
10
For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth
unto God.
11
Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto
God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Now
Grace Reigns Through Righteousness
Unto
Eternal Life
Romans
5:21
That
as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through
righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.
Now
Receiving Him,
We
abide in Him (the Spirit of Christ)
In
That Righteousness is His Blessing(s) and Benefit(s) of Glory
Romans
8:9-11
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.
10
And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is
life because of righteousness.
11
But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he
that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by
his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
We
are Joined/Married to the Resurrection and Life
Now
Justified (just as if you’d never sinned) – Now abiding in Newness of Life (no
sin no death)
Romans
6:13-14
13
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
14
For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but
under grace.
Abiding
in Newness of Life: In the Spirit of Christ and Glory, full of His Blessings
and Benefits…
…Because
of HIS Righteousness.
Romans
5:19 …so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.
Amen.
