Exodus 19:5-6

“Now therefore, if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine. And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel.” 


Revelation 1:5-6

To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood and made us a kingdom, priests to his God and Father, to him be glory and dominion forever and ever Amen


THE LAW says, “Do!”

The GOSPEL says, “Done!”


What is the purpose of the Mosaic Covenant?


James 2:10

For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it.


Romans 3:19-20

Now we know that whatever the law says it speaks to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and the whole world may be held accountable to God.  For by works of the law no human being will be justified in his sight, since through the law comes knowledge of sin.



AN AWFUL LAWFULL EXPERIENCE 

(how one young man got his mouth shut by the law)




Romans 3:19-20

Now we know that whatever the law says it speaks to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and the whole world may be held accountable to God.  For by works of the law no human being will be justified in his sight, since through the law comes knowledge of sin.


- Justification is an instantaneous legal act of God in which he thinks of our sins as forgiven and Christ’s righteousness belonging to us, and declares us to be righteous in his sight - Grudem


OUR LAWFULL LORD

(the uniquely righteous life of Jesus)


God intends for you to stand confidently and boldly in your justified status
