[6] For while we were still helpless, at the right time, Christ died for the ungodly. [7] For rarely will someone die for a just person-though for a good person perhaps someone might even dare to die. [8] But God proves his own love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. [9] How much more then, since we have now been declared righteous by his blood, will we be saved through him from wrath. [10] For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, then how much more, having been reconciled, will we be saved by his life. [11] And not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received this reconciliation.
For Scripture is the school of the Holy Spirit, in which, as nothing is omitted that is both necessary and useful to know, so nothing is taught but what is expedient to know. Therefore we must guard against depriving believers of anything disclosed about predestination in Scripture, lest we seem either wickedly to defraud them of the blessing of their God or to accuse and scoff at the Holy Spirit for having published what it is in any way profitable to suppress.
Jesus Christ Died on the Cross As a Man NOT as GOD – Jesus Had Two Natures the HUMAN Nature and the DIVINE Nature- The Human Nature Died on the Cross – The Divine Nature Never Died Because God Cannot Die! Thats why Jesus Christ Said Father Into Thine Hands I commit my Spirit
And He Gave up the Spirit – Meaning His Spirit departed from His Body- His Body Died but His Spirit = His Divine Nature did not Die- this is simple Christology 101 The Hypostatic Union of Christ Jesus was Truly God Truly Man-
The Holy Bible is clear the Law of Moses, saves No One- No one is saved, regenrated or redeemed by the Law of Moses- The Torah Saves no one! The Jesus Christ Came to Fufill the Law, and He did fufill the Law of Moses by Living a Perfect Sinless Life, and By Dying a Perfect Death, in Propitiation and Substitution for Us. Christ Jesus Made a. Perfect Atonement for our Sins.
Sin was the obstacle in the way of our reconcililation with God. Therefore Christ Jesus came and paid the complete price for our sins, and redeemed us from the curse of sin and death.
In Christ Jesus we have Life, Salvation, and Forgiveness of sins, and we are made right before God, this is called Forensic Justification. God declares us, Not Guilty because Christ has become our substitution, he has taken our place, by living a perfect life in our place, and dying a perfect death in our stead.
It is entirely by the intervention of Christ’s righteousness that we obtain justification before God. This is equivalent to saying that man is not just in himself, but that the righteousness of Christ is communicated to him by imputation, while he is strictly deserving of punishment.
(John Calvin)
God does not justify us because we are worthy, but by justifying us make us worthy.
(Thomas Watson)
“We explain justification simply as the acceptance with which God receives us into his favor as righteous men. And we say that it consists in the remission of sins and the imputation of Christ’s righteousness.”
Galatians 3:11-14 CSB [11] Now it is clear that no one is justified before God by the law, because the righteous will live by faith. [12] But the law is not based on faith; instead, the one who does these things will live by them. [13] Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, because it is written, Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree. [14] The purpose was that the blessing of Abraham would come to the Gentiles by Christ Jesus, so that we could receive the promised Spirit through faith.
We are NOT Saved by Keeping the Law of Moses (TORAH) We are Saved By Grace Through Faith in Christ, and Christ Alone!
Torah Keeping Hebrew Roots Movement is a False Theology that teaches, a follower of Christ Jesus Must keep the Law of Moses (TORAH) to receive and achieve salvation..
Romans 3:21
But now apart from the Law the righteousness of God has been manifested, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets.
Romans 5:18
But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under tha Law.
Romans 6:14
For sin shall not be master over you, for you are not under the law but under grace.
Romans 6:12-14
Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its lusts, and do not go on presenting the members of your body to sin as instruments of unrighteousness; but present yourselves to God as those alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. For sin shall not be master over you, for you are not under law but under grace.
Galatians 3:23-26
Now before faith came, we were held captive under the law, imprisoned until the coming faith would be revealed. So then, the law was our guardian until Christ came, in order that we might be justified by faith. But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian, for in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through faith”
Titus 2:11-14
“For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age, waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works”
Paul is clearly telling us that the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people… we should always rely on the grace of God for our Salvation, and also know that Christ gave himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and make us pure for himself, and make us zealous for good works, no saved by good works, but zealous for good works…
