Preparing yourself for the study of God’s Word
Before we begin, if you are a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ (that is— you have trusted in Him for eternal life), it is important to prepare yourself to take-in God’s Word so take a moment to name, cite or acknowledge your sins privately directly to God the Father. This will assure that you are in fellowship with God the Father and the Holy Spirit’s convicting ministry, also called the convincing ministry will then be able to teach you as the Holy Spirit is the real teacher and the pastor’s message is the vehicle the Holy Spirit uses to convince you what you are learning is true or not.
1 John 1:9 says—“If we confess [simply name, cite or acknowledge to God the Father] our sins [known sins], He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins [known sins] and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness [all unknown and forgotten sins].” NKJV (New King James Version)
If you have never personally believed in the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior (that is, believed in Him for eternal life), the issue for you is not to name your sins to God; the issue for you is to believe by faith alone in Jesus Christ alone for eternal life and you will be saved the very second you believe in Him:
John 6:47 says: “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me [Jesus Christ] has everlasting life.” NKJV
Notice again what John 6:47 says, “he who believes in Me [Jesus Christ] has everlasting life.” It doesn’t say, “will have”; it says, “has.” Therefore, the very moment you believe Jesus Christ’s promise of everlasting life, you have it (it’s really just that simple), and it can never be lost or taken away from you (John 10:28-29). Furthermore, the gift of everlasting life (also called eternal life in scripture) is available to every human being; there are absolutely no exceptions.
John 3:14-18 says: “And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” NKJV

Let us now bow our hearts and take a moment to prepare for learning God’s Word, if there is any known sin in your life, this is the time to just cite it privately to God the Father with your thoughts directed towards Him. With your head bowed and your eyes closed, you have total privacy in your mind and soul:
Our Pastor-Teacher is:
This ministry is non-denominational and is dedicated to
teaching the Word of God from the original languages and
making it available at no charge throughout the world.

Sermon
NOTES
Unlike the bible study, these notes are not just for reading without watching the video. These notes are more designed to follow along during the sermon and to bring up the “hover pop-up scripture references” (some websites may require to left click the link) when the Pastor asks everyone to turn to that passage in their bibles or as a memory jogger for review after you’ve viewed the video Sermon.
The Doctrine of Justification. Part 1.
How could they miss it? Because instead of trusting God, they took matters into their own hands.
The stone was Himself, God indwelling man. 1Ti 3:16 And by common confession great is the mystery of godliness: He who was revealed in the flesh, Was vindicated in the Spirit, Beheld by angels, Proclaimed among the nations, Believed on in the world, Taken up in glory.
We began a series of messages from this section on the Righteousness and Justice of God, the First Adam and the Last Adam, the
Doctrine of Imputations, which we have now completed 18 hours upon, and now our final doctrine, the Doctrine of Justification.
Doctrine of Justification.
Point 1. Introduction; Rom 4:13-25.
If those who get what God gives them only get it by doing everything they are told to do and following the rules and regulations found in the Mosaic Law, then faith is meaningless and we must live by works.
Rom 11:6 But if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works, otherwise grace is no longer grace.
That’s not a holy promise; that’s a business deal.
The law was designed to reveal our hopeless and bring us to Christ bring us to Christ.
This is why the law is said to be an unbearable yoke. (Acts 15:10) .
The Law reveals sin but cannot fix it. (Rom 3:20).
If the law worked then faith would be irrelevant. (Rom 4:14) .
The law brings wrath upon those who follow it. (Rom 4:15).
The purpose of the law was to increase sin. (Rom 5:20)
This means that Christians are not under the law. (Rom 6:14) .
Christians have been delivered from the law. (Rom 7:1-6).
The law is good, perfect and holy but cannot help you be good, perfect or holy. (Rom 7:7-12).
The law which promises life only brings death through sin. (Rom 7:10).
The law makes you sinful beyond measure or “utterly sinful.” (Rom 7:13).
The law is therefore said to weak, not because it is weak but because we are weak. (Rom 8:2-3).
Where there is no law, neither is there a violation or if there is no contract in the first place, but simply a promise and God’s promise at that you can’t break it, why?
This is why the fulfillment of God’s promise depends entirely on trusting God and His way, and then simply embracing Him and what He does.
It means both to those who keep the religious traditions and those who have never heard of them.
Abraham is not our racial father he is our faith father, the father of our faith.
Abraham is called the father of our faith because his life was one that was characterized as having faith.
We call Abraham “father” not because he got God’s attention by living like a saint, but because God made something out of Abraham when he was a nobody.
Abraham was first named “father” and then became the father of our faith because he dared to trust God to do what only God could do: raise the dead to life, or He calls into being that which does not exist.
When everything was hopeless, Abraham believed anyway, deciding to live not on the basis of what he saw “he couldn’t do” but on what God said “He would do.”
Rom 4:18 In hope against hope he believed, in order that he might become a father of many nations, according to that which had been spoken, “So shall your descendants be.”
The point is that Abraham didn’t focus on his own impotence and say, “It’s hopeless, instead he focused in on God’s omnipotence, and said, with God all things are possible.
His hundred year old body could never father a child nor did he consider Sarah’s decades of infertility and give up.
The same thing gets said about us when we embrace and believe the One who brought Jesus to life when the conditions seemed to be hopeless.
His resurrection was the validation of the sacrifice of His spiritual death and the proof of our acceptance with God.
Point 2 in the doctrine of justification is the Etymology of the word which is the origin and historical development of a word and how it was originally used in its earliest known use.
