When this letter is read among you...
John Farley
Pastor-Teacher Wednesday, December 4, 2013 When this letter is read among you…pastor @ lbible.org It is a story that begins in innocence, falls into sin, is rescued by the blood of Christ onto righteousness - -by grace through faith, and ends up in abundant eternal life in Christ. The cross is the turning point in God’s plan for dealing with sinful man. Christ has done a work in virtue of which God’s relationship with the creation – the world, the new heavens and new earth - when all is accomplished, will be on the ground neither of innocence nor of sin, but of righteousness!
1Co 15:20
So now Christ at the right hand of the Father is our righteousness,
2Co 5:21 What does this mean for us in our daily lives?
1Jo 2:29 Each of those wonders of being in Christ has a CORRESPONDING EXHORTATION to LIVE THAT WAY NOW!
