 All right. Good morning, everyone. Good morning to our students online as well. Let's just begin this time with a word of prayer. So let's pray and then we'll get into our session. Father, we thank you for this beautiful morning. We thank you for this day, God. Lord, we thank you for giving us the opportunity to come together and just study your word again and learn about our identity that we have in you as your children are God. And even as we learn deeper in your word, Lord, we pray that you will minister to each of our hearts. Holy Spirit, we ask that you speak to us, God, and help us to understand and to learn and to grasp the things of God into our hearts and to our spirit of God that will bear fruit in each of our lives. We thank you for doing this. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen. Amen. All right. So we've done up to chapter 24, last class. Last class, we had quite a few topics. 22, we looked at how we are without blame before God. 23, chapter 23, we looked at how we are accepted in the Beloved. What is the meaning of accepted? Remember, I gave that example when you wrote your application form, you were accepted. Right? So the Lord Jesus has accepted us, is accepting us even now into His presence. Then we look at chapter 24 that we are washed, sanctified and justified in the presence of God. Right? So let's get into chapter 5. Now again, as we get into this chapter, there could be pointers that could be repeated, but wherever it's repeated, I'm just going to go quick so that we can cover the entire portion. Right? So chapter 25, righteousness of God. Before we go ahead, what is righteousness? You should know this by now. Come on, give me some answers. What is righteousness? First of all, right standing with God. Right standing with God. Okay. Oh, guys, those who are here, what is righteousness? You've been learning, know all this while. Gertrude already gave the answer. There we have a right standing with God. And when we become believers, God imputes, the word imputes means He puts it on ourselves. Even if you say, God, I don't want righteousness, God says you have to take it because it's part of becoming a believer. Right? Now, the righteousness that He is, is what has been given to us. Now, when Jesus is standing, for example, right, I'm helping you to understand this, I'm painting a picture for you. When Jesus is standing in front of the Father, does He have a right standing before the Father? Yes or no? He has a right standing. Is the Father saying, no, I don't want you, you're not, you're not the right person? Is the Father saying that? Is the Father saying you're sinful? Is He saying that? When the Father is looking at Jesus, does He have a right standing? That's why the Bible says Jesus stood, Jesus, after He resurrected, He went and He was seated at the right hand of the Father. Right? So just as how Jesus has a right standing before the Father, you and I, the same righteousness that's in Jesus is in you and me. So now, while going into God's presence, do we have to fear? Do we have to get scared? Oh, so many sins. Do we have to get scared? Yes or no? No, right? You can just go into God's presence with confidence. Right? Let's read these couple of verses here. Romans 3.22. Is there a mic here? Go ahead, read. Romans 3.22. Even the righteousness of God, so faith in Jesus Christ, to all end on all who believe, for there is no difference. I like this verse. For the righteousness of God through faith. Right? Through faith in Jesus Christ. So how can you and I have a right standing before God? Just the answer is only one thing. Through faith in Jesus Christ. Okay, so everyone say this after me. I receive the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ. Okay? Not five hours of prayer, five hours of worship, read the whole Bible. All of that is important. But we receive the righteousness of God through faith. All we have to do is believe. Faith in Jesus Christ. Now, how many of you believe in Jesus Christ? All of us believe in Jesus. So are we the righteousness of God? Right? Let's read 1 Corinthians 1.30. But of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God and righteousness and sanctification and redemption. So it says here, but of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us the wisdom of God. So, but of him, talking about the Father, you and I are in Christ Jesus. Yes? Because you and I in Christ Jesus, we receive righteousness, sanctification and redemption. I'll read the next verse. 2 Corinthians 5.21 for he made him who knew no sin to be sin for us that we might become the righteousness of God. There's a saying called the great exchange. We talked about it in the initial chapter. The great exchange is nothing but God who knew no sin took up sin for us so that we who are sinful can become the righteousness of God. The one who wasn't sinful became sin and those who are sinful became holy. You understand that? Let me repeat it. See, God is holy and he became sin for us and we are sinful but we become holy because of what Jesus did. It's called the great exchange. Here Christ became sin for us for our sake so that you and I can go before the Father. The righteousness of God has been imparted to all of us The righteousness we have has been given that we have been given is the righteousness of God and when we try to understand this, we may not understand but we receive it by faith. How do I have a right standing before God? I don't have a right standing before God. Remember in the Old Testament, were they fearful to go into the temple? Very scared. Oh God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, the God of Jacob this great big God, how can I enter his presence? That was this fear. God is so great, so holy, so great miracle working God. He did these great miracles and now I am going into his presence? No, no. But in the New Testament, when Jesus was on the cross that veil was torn, that means what? The separation was removed. So now when we get into God's presence, there should not be any fear. There should not be any doubt whether God will listen to us or not whether God loves us or not. There should not be any doubt. Now who comes to bring doubt inside our heart? The devil will come. He'll bring doubt. No, you don't know this. You're a believer. See how many mistakes you have made. See how sinful your life is. But here it says we must understand that the righteousness of God has already been given to us. So we're not doing anything. It's not a place of works because we're receiving it through faith in Jesus Christ. Now just because righteousness has given to us doesn't mean every day we get up, we sin and in the night you go back pray and say thank you for forgiving me. That's not what it is. We must understand that hey, if God is calling me righteous, God is calling me holy, I should walk that way. Remember the story of the slum boy and the boy when the king took him to the palace? If he still behaves like the slum boy, what will the king say? Hey, I brought you to the palace. The food is yours only. Don't grab all the food and eat it. It's your food. It's your house. So just because the righteousness of God is in us doesn't mean we take it for granted. We have to learn to live in holiness. And we have become the righteousness of God because of what? Because of what Christ did for us. I've used this example before. You got the Father, you got the Son and the Holy Spirit in Heaven. Now the Father is there, the Son is there and every time we get into God's presence. Are we sinful? Yes. But every time we get into God's presence, we are not coming by our own works. If I come into God's presence saying, God, I'm a pastor. I've been pastoring a church for so many years. Please answer my prayer. What is the problem there? What is the problem? I'm coming by works because I'm saying I'm a pastor. God doesn't care whether I'm a pastor, apostle, all that. Even a child of God who is, you know, one month in the Lord, God will answer. God will accept. So I should never come into God's presence saying, Oh God, I'm a Bible college student. Please answer my prayer. You're not coming to God's presence because of your Bible. What happens after you graduate? God, I am working in the, I am in full-time ministry. Please answer my prayers. No. We don't come into God's presence by all of that. We come by faith in Jesus Christ. Lord, I am a sinner. I know that some things that I've thought, some things that I've said is sinful, is wrong. Some things that I've seen is wrong. But Lord, I'm coming into your presence because your word says that I can come with confidence. And I'm coming because I know that the blood of Jesus will forgive my sins. Now, what is the difference? I'm not coming by my work. I'm not saying God, I'm 10 years in ministry, 20 years in ministry, but I'm saying, God, I'm a sinner. I'm coming through the blood of Jesus Christ. That is the difference. So then, if you're coming through the blood of Jesus Christ, there should not be any, you know, any hesitance to come in. God, I know you will answer my prayer. I know you will forgive me. How do you know your sins are forgiven? Does God write one letter and one stamp and say, take, you are forgiven? Does He do that? Nothing, you only know in your spirit. By faith, you know that God has forgiven myself. That's it. The angel of God won't come down and say, okay, your sins are forgiven my child. Now, all the message of the gospel is only faith in Jesus Christ. It's only faith, right? In everything that we do, it's faith. How do you know you're justified? How do you know you're sanctified? How do you know there's heaven? How do you know there's hell? How do you know? You read it in the Bible, okay? Do you have faith in the Bible? You can read hundreds of other things, but you have to have faith in it, right? People come and say, hey, there's no heaven, hell. You know, this world only, the earth only is hell. Everything will go, it'll become hell. What will you say? Really. But if your faith is in Jesus Christ, what will you say? You know, this is what God's word is saying. God himself said there's heaven, there's hell, and one day we will pass away and there is an afterlife, so I believe in this. People make fun, hey, you're mad. How can you believe in this? No, I have faith, simple. Nobody can change that faith. Remember in the New Testament, in Jesus' ministry, he healed a blind man. What the blind man did? He went telling everyone, everyone said, who healed you? Jesus of Nazareth healed me. I don't tell anybody. This man went and told everyone, no, Jesus healed me. Then he went to the Pharisees and the Sadducees, they started asking, who healed you? I said, Jesus of Nazareth. No, no, you were not blind. What does he say? See, I don't know all of that. One thing I know, I was blind. Now I see. Secondly, I know that Jesus came, he prayed for me and he healed me. Whether he's Messiah, whether he's going to be the Messiah of the Jews or whatever, that I don't know. One thing I know, I was blind, I see now. Jesus came and prayed. Nothing can change that. That is called childlike faith. That's what God wants from us to believe. Childlike faith. So let's go to chapter 26. We are justified and righteous through faith. We read this verse, but let's read Romans chapter 5, verse 1 and 2. Romans 5, 1 and 2. Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have access by faith into His grace in which we stand and rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Thank you. So we see here, we have been justified by faith and now we have peace with God. Now this word is very important. Peace with God. What is peace? What is peace? Peace is... there are two kinds of peace. One is of outward peace and one is an inward peace. Yes? Imagine, you know, I stay in my house, I've got two small kids. When you go home, there's only sound, right? Because they are playing, they are shouting, they are screaming. That's what children will do, right? So outwardly, too much of sound. But inward peace is different, right? So imagine this, if a Christian family, right? They lost a loved one. Their father or their mother passed away, died. So hurtful, painful, right? Now after some time, there's a peace. Okay, he's in God's presence or she's in God's presence. Why? Because the Bible says that there's a peace. Who gives that peace? God gives that peace. It's not human peace. Humans can give a certain kind of comfort. Okay, don't worry, we are there for you. But the peace that God gives is passing all understanding. We may not understand, but he gives a peace. For example, you're sitting on the beach. How many of you have seen a beach? Right, you've gone to the beach. You see the beach and you're seeing a beautiful sunset. Ah, so peaceful. That is outward peace. Once you start driving back to the city, it's full of traffic. Where's the peace gone? It's gone, right? Everyone are shouting at each other. Peace is gone. But the peace that God gives us, whether there is traffic or no traffic, there's peace inside us. So here, God is referring to a peace that is inward. When we were in sin in the Old Testament, there was God and man. It was separate because of sin. But when Jesus died on the cross, he made peace between God and man. It was like Jesus took his blood, went to heaven and said, Okay, God, I know you are holy and now because you are holy, people are sinful. But now I've taken up all the sins of the world on the cross. So with this blood, you make peace. You'll be peaceful. You as a God and my children, those who believe in the blood of Jesus are peaceful. So there's no enmity. God is not saying I'm still angry. I'm going to bring punishment upon you. No, there's peace. There's been restored. You get what I'm saying? We now have peace with God. We have access to God. We stand in a place of grace before the Father and we have the full joy because of hope, of the glory of God. One day, we have this hope that one day when we pass away, when we die, we will go and be with the Lord Jesus in heaven. Is that a hopeful thing or is that a sad thing? It's cool. So when we are living our life, we can live with joy, live with confidence, knowing that one day we will be with the Lord Jesus. All that we are studying about Jesus, all the scriptures, the prayer, the worship, all that we did in our life, the worship, prayer, asking God, speak to me. Now, after we pass away, the hope is that we will be with Jesus. Now, when you're in heaven, you don't need to pray. Only worship will happen there. No need prayer points. No prayer points. They're in God's presence. And that's the hope that you and I have. Let's read Philippians chapter 3 verse 8 and 9. Philippians 3, 8 and 9. Yes, please go ahead, Gertrub. Philippians 3 verses 8 to 9. Yet, indeed, I also count all things lost for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ, Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as rubbish that I may gain from Christ. And we found in him not having my own righteousness which is from the law but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith. Yes. So here, it's very interesting this passage. Paul is writing to the believers in Philippi. Now, in Philippi, the believers are being persecuted. And he's saying, now all that I am going through all the good things that I've done, all the challenging things that I've gone through, all the difficult seasons. One is we started good many churches. I wrote many epistles. Then he says, okay, I was beaten, I was shipwrecked. So many things happened to me. But I am not going to into God's presence with all that list. He says here, I count all things lost for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ. For whom I have suffered the loss of all things and count them rubbish so that I may gain Christ. So Paul is saying, he's not saying that the things that he has done is rubbish but he's saying if you compare them to Jesus, Jesus is much greater. Knowing Jesus is bigger. This is very important lesson that you and I must learn. Sometimes in ministry, we may fall in love with the ministry. Yes, I like to do ministry. I like to worship. I like to sing songs. But we forget why are we doing it? Are you getting what I'm saying? Yes, ministry is sometimes we like to do ministry. Oh, I like to pray for people. I like to you know, minister to people. I like to preach. I like to study the word. I like to prepare sermons. It's good. But if I'm doing all this and I'm not gaining knowledge about Christ or I'm not going closer to Jesus, it's a failure. So Paul is saying, I count all of this rubbish compared to knowing Jesus. Compared to knowing Jesus, Jesus is much greater than all that I have done. So very important for us. Don't get caught up into doing ministry and forget to spend time in God's presence. And Jesus says, you must, I am the vine. You are the branches. Unless you abide in me, you will not bear fruit. Yes. So sometimes we can abide in the ministry. They can rest in the ministry. Oh, I'm a pastor. I'm a teacher. I can rest there. But that's the wrong place to be. I should rest in God's presence. I should rest with Jesus and out of that will come everything else. Right? You get what I'm saying? Yes. So that's very important. We are justified and righteous through faith. Never take your commitments or your achievements and go to God's presence. Never take things that, you know, maybe even your failures. Yes, don't carry them and say, God, these are all my failures. Yes, it's good to humble ourselves. But God is saying, hey, move on. Go on. I have better things for you. Don't sit and think about all the failures. Rise up again. Stand up. Know your identity. For example, an eagle is flying and it hits a something on the way and falls down. Do you think it'll be down itself? Or do you think it'll get up and fly again? I'll try again. Look at athletes. I've seen these videos which people send, right? Especially these runners and all. Somebody had sent me this clip about how this it was a 400 meters race. I think it was the Olympics. 400 meter race and it was the women's 400 meters. And this girl one of the participants, she was running and in the middle she tripped with her own feet and fell down. Everyone have gone. There are two options. Get up and go and sit. Because there's no chance, how will you win? But she got up and started running. And she finished the race and she came second. She overtook everyone. Now in the natural if we are so determined right, how much more must we be in this spiritual in the things of God. Right. So remember that the enemy will come. You will confuse us. Say you are not righteous. You are not this. You are not that. You will also come to a place to say that Jesus himself is not there. The enemy comes to kill steel and what is the word? What is what is the number one thing that the Satan uses lies lies in deception. Now to you and I as believers Satan won't come and say there is no Jesus. We know hey that is Jesus. I may not be very holy but I know there is Jesus died on the court. That much I know. So he will come in different ways. Right. You are reading the word. He will say and the word says you are righteous before God. That means you are not a sinner. Everyone will say how is that possible? You are a sinner. You sin yesterday only you should I remind you which sin you did? He will remind you also. He is a master in that. So what should you do? You should be smart enough. You should say no need to remind me. I know it. So I don't have to give an account to you. We are giving an account to who? Jesus. I don't have to give an account to the devil. There are mistakes we make. The devil will come and say you did this. I say I always say this. I say I don't have to tell you anything. I made mistakes. Yes. But I don't have to tell you. Who are you? Why should I tell you? You are reminding me of my mistakes. So why should I have a conversation with you? I can always go to Jesus. Who will forgive me? You are not going to forgive me anyways. There is no way that you can. So I might as well go to Jesus. Simple. Right. So understand. Know it. Inside your heart. You know that you are a child of God. Righteous and justified. Everyone with me? Yes. Okay. Chapter 27. Let's go. Justified and righteous freely by his grace. Romans 3 24. Oh, let's let's actually we've already read that. But let's read Titus 3 4 through 7. Titus chapter 3 4 to 7. Yes, go ahead. But when the kindness and the love of God our savior toward men appeared not by works of righteousness which we have done but according to his mercy he saved us from the worst thing of regeneration and reeling of the Holy Spirit whom he pure poured out of on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior that here we will justified by his grace which should become his according to the hope of internal life. Yes. So now again Paul is writing here. Now it's interesting. You and I are justified by grace. Now remember the example I gave you grace. What is grace? You should know this grace is something we don't deserve unmerited favor. Remember the teacher gives you 39 40 is the past mark what will you do? Sir one mark you see somewhere one mark do you deserve it? No really give it depends on the teacher's heart I will give you right? That's called grace now we are justified and righteous by grace through Jesus Christ it is God's grace I cannot say oh thank God I you know somebody told me about Jesus thank God I agreed. You agreed but who did the work you agreed to become believe in Jesus but that doesn't make you the great one or me the great one the work was already done by Jesus it is his grace that he is allowing us into his kingdom that he is forgiving us so nowadays there can be many teachings where this religious mindset where you have to come into God's presence through you know the sacrifices that you have made or how holy you have lived your life or how much of the Bible that you know or how many gifts of the spirit you have do you have prophecy are you an apostle are you a prophet are you teacher and then we think there are different levels for each place that is not so think about this there can be an apostle say apostle Paul was he a great man apostle Paul in the New Testament he did so much because of him we have the entire three fourth of the New Testament he did great things for God's kingdom now apostle Paul is there and one believer who is one month right for example he believed in Jesus just one month something happened and he passed away now both are in heaven ok apostle Paul is there and this believer is also there one month in the Lord he doesn't know anything from the Bible nothing he doesn't know apostle Paul also so he is standing there now when God sees both of them how will he see them you tell me will God see them equal yes or no yes why because apostle Paul is coming through faith in Jesus Christ this believer who is one month in the Lord is coming through faith in Jesus Christ so when God is seeing hey both of them are my children but we also know that God is a just God yes apostle Paul he sacrificed so much so he he did so much for God's kingdom he planted churches all of that is there so he will be rewarded accordingly to what he has done this person may not have done much he will be rewarded for his life for what he has done but the grace is the same when God looks at both of them they both are equal both are saved by grace apostle Paul is not saved by writing letters not this young man is saved by any of his works you get what I am saying understanding right both are the same in God's eyes that is the grace of God right so it's not merit based none of us can go to God's presence by works thank God you know today I prayed one hour can you please speak to me oh God I prayed for two hours today can you give me a good job it's not how it works yes we have to pray we have to ask God but you don't say okay because I prayed God will give me even if you don't pray God gives you that's his grace right so this is the blessings that we have all we have to do is receive this free gift of grace so Jesus is saying my grace is upon you take it all we are doing is thank you Jesus how many of you know that tomorrow you will wake up in the morning okay I am not making you scared don't get scared but we don't know no we really don't know right every morning when we open our eyes it is the grace of God nothing it's not because we went to the gym or because we had good food all of that is good it's important to keep our bodies look after our body very important but if you go extreme you know these people who go to the gym and they are only living inside the gym the whole day right and they only want to do exercise the whole life is based on that right now it's good to look after your body it's good to be strong and healthy eat healthy but if you feel that oh because I've done this that's why I am so strong they don't know tomorrow whether they live or not it is the grace of God everyone say grace of God if you have gifts and talents that God has given you some of you can sing some of you can dance some of you can write it is the grace of God who gave it to you did you pay for it oh I can sing I actually paid you know one million dollars to sing it's a grace it's a gift of God given to us so remember that this amazing grace that God has given us we take it very lightly yes do you think about it there are you know I always tell my kids you know sometimes they go to school and they don't eat their lunch they come back the lunch folks is just like that what do I say so I sit with them and I say see there are children around who don't have food who are hungry right and who don't have anything but you have some good food why don't you eat and begin to talk to them about grace and they understand it why because grace is something we take very lightly how many people around us don't have homes don't have eyes to see don't have legs to walk it's very sad right it's the grace of God that we are here healthy strong God has given us everything that we have yes or no imagine living as a blind person is it nice but even through that God you know how many of you know Fanny Crosby she's an old hymn writer she wrote 8000 hymns 8000 how many of you have heard blessed assurance Jesus is mine it's an old hymn 8000 hymns she's a blind girl that's the grace of God so don't take the grace of God lightly don't feel ah God it's there it has to be there no this life we have is a gift from God you need to honor it right so let's go to chapter 28 we've already read this verse Romans 3 24 and 25 justified and righteous through his blood okay Romans 5 9 much more than having now being justified by his blood we have we shall be saved from wrath through him right Colossians 1 20 and 21 and by him to reconcile all things to himself by him whether the things on earth or things in heaven having made peace through the blood of his cross and you who are once alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works yet now he has reconciled here's an important point here we're reconciled by grace first is reconciled by faith then grace now we're reconciled how by the blood of Jesus now picture this Jesus died on the cross in the Old Testament the high priest would take the blood of the lamb right and he would sprinkle it on the altar and what would that do this blood of the lamb will cover the sins so that means God is for example this is you know there's something here it's a sin God is covering it okay I'm not seeing it it's covered that's what happened in the Old Testament the blood of the lamb one goat right without blemish the Old Testament it is poured on the sacrifice now in the New Testament Jesus shed his own blood and the book of Hebrews talks about it he took his blood and presented it to the Father that through his blood once for all what was done in the Old Testament was doing every year every year the high priest would pour the blood over the altar okay God has covered our sins but now when Jesus the great high priest goes into heaven he showed his own blood he sprinkled his own blood in the altar in heaven and now the price has been paid it is finished the blood of Jesus is powerful even now you tell some of the unbelievers people from other faiths the blood of Jesus they'll say hey what is this the blood of Jesus 2000 what 2020 years ago was gone it was all over out of his body the blood right how do we know when the Romans pierced his side what happened water came no more blood zero blood the Lord Jesus shed every drop of his blood that blood his precious blood and through the blood of Jesus we find forgiveness of sins through the blood of Jesus we have been made righteous and justified when we partake in the Lord's table the body and the blood of Jesus right what are we saying that blood is able to forgive our sins because the price has been paid right the blood of Jesus is powerful when we pray know sometimes I cover them with the blood of Jesus I speak the blood of Jesus over your family right you're healed by the blood of Jesus why do we say these things because his blood is still speaking his blood is powerful his work that he has done is so powerful the moment you and I know the power of the blood of Jesus no devil can come against it no devil can come against the blood of Jesus impossible the devil and his demons cannot penetrate through the blood of Jesus it's like a fire they cannot do anything it's covered it's sealed that's the power of the blood of Jesus and you and I when we as believers go to go to his presence the blood of Jesus speaks it's like the blood is saying I have paid the price and I'm willing to forgive your sins what must we do only believe have faith right there are some practical implications on page 36 practical implications of being justified and made righteous right so what effect does being justified and righteous have for us as believers just because we are justified just because we are righteous what is it that happens to us I think there are 5 points there let's look at that there is no condemnation so we live free of guilt, shame accusation we have bornness to enter into the presence of God to continue to walk in intimate relationship with God 3. we reign in life that means we have dominion and power over the work of the devil and his demons we have dominion over satan, dominion over sin we have authority 4. we confront satan as king and master over him and his demons that means when the devil comes with temptations we are not called to be scared and go sit in the side devil is coming, what do I do no, God has given us the authority and he is saying you are masters over the devil the bible says he destroyed the devil, he crushed the serpent's head he is defeated so you and I must walk in that big tree and finally we are careful to maintain continual fellowship with the Lord by abiding in a place of righteousness the devil will come and say gone for you nobody will listen to you you have done the worst sin possible you say yes I have sin instead of running away from God you and I can run to God go back to God Jesus I have done this terrible sin is there any sin the blood of Jesus cannot forgive so just go back to him run back to him restore your identity remember in life in this life Christian walk there will be ups and downs there will be times we will be victorious there will be times we will fail but when we fail in the place of saying oh I am not good enough no if we do that we are making the blood of Jesus or the cross powerless in the spiritual it is always powerful but we are not we are saying that was not enough was the cross enough or not enough does Jesus have to come again and die does He have to come again and do some work some things miracles it is enough it is done the work was finished He said it is finished it is done you and I must stand in that identity right so we will stop here we will pick up from next class on no condemnation but here is the thing I want each one of us to do even the students online you can do this those who are mostly Hindi speaking so I want you to write down these words right sanctification even those who are English speaking you can do that write down these words sanctification justification redemption these important words righteousness of God justified write it down and
