Today, His Word Stands "For Us" "For Good!" |
This may be a new 'series' on the good that God's words to be for us today. The previous series on "Behind Closed Doors" has taken its toll on me personally. I will continue to preach the word, as God shows me!
Note: Do not mistake today's phrase 'for us' as meaning the same as what words are TO US and FOR US in the Bible.
His word is not against us today for evil, but for us for good!
It is a response to the SS lesson where in Jeremiah 44:29, And this shall be a sign unto you, saith the LORD, that I will punish you in this place, that ye may know that my words shall surely stand against you for evil:
In the OT, God dealt judgment onto His people; and we can surely see that judgment in detail within the Book of Jeremiah.
But today, through Paul's Epistles, we see that His words are 'for us,' not against us - and they are for GOOD, not evil!
We read, with some commentary, through the following:
Romans 5:8-11
Romans 6
Romans 7:9
The notes and comments would be just too extensive and too difficult for me to type up - as are tonight's notes as well.
We continue on with reading some of the 'good' that these words can teach us. This set was supposed to be included in the a.m. message, but obviously we not have the time or take the time. Here it is for you from tonight.
Romans 7:9-25
Romans 8
