CHAPTER FIVE
BENEFITS OF THE LORD RIGHTEOUSNESS
There are a lot we can drive from relying on the righteousness of the Lord; but we would take a look at few in this handbook.
POWER OVER SIN: Any one born of have the righteousness of God and having the righteousness is having the seed of God, the seed of God produces the kind of God and since God can not sin, so His produce or the outcome of the seed in you can not be sin. I was one day teaching in the Home cell where I was privilege to head; and said “A Christian does not sin then was this woman said “don’t spoil my children, you will say that and they go out messing about”” you see this woman did not wait to understand from the scriptures why a Christian can’t sin. John said “We know [absolutely] …show more content…

But why then is sicknesses and dieses come from? Sickness and dieses came after man fell from the righteousness of God and pursuing their own righteousness then the devil step in to afflict man since their own righteousness do not have the power to stop afflictions. Therefore sicknesses and dieses have their way into man’s life. But God plan is for us to have power or dominion over sickness and dieses for He said “Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why then is not the health of the daughter of my people restored? [Because Zion no longer enjoyed the presence of the Great Physician!]” Jer 8:22. We are sick, afflicted because we have ignore his presence in our lives. How can the pot tell the potter that make me this way or that way; God said look to me and live but we have rejected him, He said depend on me, but we rejected him and “by our own strength, we would win” but returning back to God trough Jesus Christ, we have power over sickness and afflictions. For he said “And no inhabitant [of Zion] will say, I am sick; the people who dwell there will be forgiven their iniquity and guilt.” Isa 33:24. As a righteousness child of God, sickness and dieses has no place in …show more content…

When God grace locate you, it lead you to righteousness; Jesus speaking said “no one can come to me unless the father draw him”. Without grace no one can enjoy or have access to the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus for it is the grace of God that lead man to the righteousness of God. Grace boost righteousness and cause it to be powerful, therefore, for your righteousness to be in power or to be effective, you must trust in God grace. When God grace doesn’t locate you, you can never be righteous. Grace is the ground for fertility or fruitful

    Within the Christian faith, the sentiment "through sickness and health" is heavily associated with believing that what you are hoping for will come to pass. It is a belief in progression and patience that is deemed a virtue because it is both an emotion and a skill. Rose Mary cherishes the concept of Christianity, but her relationship is strained due to her marriage to Rex. This erratic behaviour is a better analogy for her conflicting loyalties to God and her husband. Her husband represents freedom and adventure, whereas God gives her life, leniency, lenient cognition, and cognition.

    What does Your grandeur mean, Master of the Universe, in the face of all this cowardice, this decay, and this misery? Why do you go on troubling these poor people's wounded minds, their ailing bodies?” (66). This presents the thought that with the constant physical struggle and torment, he begins to question whether those things he believes in strongly are even valid things. He questions why all these people need to suffer and why God has allowed them to suffer for his cause.

    “Chronically-ill Christians who do not believe that the Lord heals today should examine their participation in the Lord’s Supper as to why they remain sick.” (p. 113) As a note, 1 Corinthians 11:29 is one of my favorite passages dealing with health and healing. Paul says that lack of discernment of the Lord’s body is cause for physical weakness, sickness, and death (sleep). The Lord’s Supper reminds us of the gospel that Jesus preached is to heal the sick and save their souls.

    To the extent of this class so far, we have had the opportunity to read the book titled, The Disabled God by Nancy L. Eiesland. Throughout this publication, specifically in chapter four, Eiesland discusses carnal sins. She shares that, “physical disability has served a number of different purposes in Christian history, including, as delineated by one social historian, ‘to enhance the merits of the just through their patience, to safeguard virtue from pride, to correct the sinner, to proclaim God’s glory through miraculous cures and, finally, to proclaim God’s glory through miraculous cures and, finally, as the beginning of eternal punishment as in the case of Herod.’” (Eiesland 69) I find it significant when interpreting Bible verses to remind the reader that “the Bible is written not even in the first human language.

    In the John 8:7, when referring to the adulterous woman, Jesus said to the people, “He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.” Inherently sinful, individuals cannot go a day without lying. However, lying cannot justify good intentions, various definitions or exaggerations because at the end of the day, a lie remains a lie. Author Stephanie Ericsson argues in “The Ways We Lie,” that various types of lies do exist and often times goes unnoticed by the public. She never outright states that lying is wrong; rather, by the use of definitions and personal experiences, she proves the point that all individuals do lie.

    It’s the belief that God grants humans salvation and the He can grant it to anyone, even the least likely candidates. Grace has innumerable definitions depending on who is asked. Some people define grace as the outward expression of the harmony of the soul. Others define grace as that which saves the worst of us. Chapter 2:8-9 of Ephesians in the New International Version Bible states that “it is by grace you have been saved, through faith- and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- not by works, so that no one can boast,” (New International Version Bible, Ephesians 2.8.9).

  • Argumentative Essay On Good Work

    Prior to the Reformation Era, the Church drowned itself with money from indulgences and power over the people and the State through excommunication, indictment, and inquisition. Martin Luther, a Franciscans monk, saw their erroneous way and wrote five essential solas to lead the Church towards the right path once again. Through two of Martin Luther’s solas, Sola Gratia and Sola Fide, numerous Christ followers abandoned the ideology of good work and believed that faith and His grace would guarantee their access to Heaven. Although it is true that good work is not going to save sinful human, neglecting good work is wrong. Not only does good work represents his or her faith, good work proves the existence of salvation and brings glory to Him.
