<li>The Anticipated Question: "Shall We Sin?"
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The grace system
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>We should hate sin more and more</li>
|
|
<li>We should have new confidence because of our position and resources</li>
|
|
<li>We should live out of appreciation for God's grace to us</li>
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|
<li>Shall we "sin"? — <a id="si_2" onclick="return mV('Rom',6,1);">Rom 6:1</a>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Deliberate and persistent sin</li>
|
|
<li>Continuance in a state of sin</li>
|
|
<li>Sin as a habit</li>
|
|
<li>Sin in control</li>
|
|
<li>We cannot set ourselves free from sin</li>
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|
<li>Under law
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Our salvation does not depend upon our keeping the law</li>
|
|
<li>We are not striving to justify ourselves</li>

</ul></li>
|
|
<li>"God forbid" — <a id="si_3" onclick="return mV('Rom',6,2);">Rom 6:2</a>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>It is unthinkable</li>
|
|
<li>It can never be</li>

<li>True teaching of grace always raises questions by legalists and moralists</li>

<li>The Appeal to Common Sense — <a id="si_4" onclick="return mV('Rom',6,16);">Rom 6:16</a>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Paul's reasoning, persuading, apologetic approach</li>
|
|
<li>The terms
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Know ye not — a favorite expression</li>
|
|
<li>Yield, present, hand yourself over</li>
|
|
<li>Servants — slaves
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Servant — voluntary</li>
|
|
<li>Slave — not voluntary</li>
|
|
<li>We are a slave to sin or a slave to grace</li>
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|
<li>Sin versus obedience — not faith
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Sin unto death</li>
|
|
<li>Obedience unto righteousness, not unto life</li>
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|
<li>Not being under law is not being lawless, it is being under obedience</li>
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|
<li>The propositions
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>If we present ourselves as slaves to any power, we become the slaves of that power</li>
|
|
<li>There are only two ultimate powers
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>One is sin — in Adam</li>
|
|
<li>The other is obedience to God — in Christ</li>
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|
<li>These two powers, sin and obedience, are entirely different and absolutely opposed to each other
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Sin, Satan, Hell, Rebellion, Death</li>
|
|
<li>Obedience, God, Heaven, Holiness, Righteousness</li>
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|
<li>It is impossible to be slaves to both masters at the same time, they oppose each other — <a id="si_5" onclick="return mV('Mat',6,24);">Mat 6:24</a></li>
|
|
<li>We proclaim what our position is and who our master is by what we do — <a id="si_6" onclick="return mV('Mat',7,'15-23');">Mat 7:15-23</a>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Profession is not authoritative
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>If a man continues in sin he is not under grace</li>
|
|
<li>Whoever continues in sin — is the slave of sin</li>
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|
<li>Obedience is authoritative
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>To be a Christian is not merely saying so</li>
|
|
<li>It means we are born again
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>We are in Christ</li>
|
|
<li>We have a new nature</li>
|
|
<li>The new nature expresses itself
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>In obedience</li>
|
|
<li>In righteousness</li>
|
|
<li>In holy living</li>
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|
<li>The slave owner insists upon a certain type of conduct; therefore if you look at a man's conduct you can tell who is his master</li>
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|
<li>The Scripture is authoritative — <a id="si_7" onclick="return mV('Jhn',8,'32-45');">Jhn 8:32-45</a>,

<a id="si_8" onclick="return mV('1Jo',1,6);">1Jo 1:6</a>,

<a id="si_9" onclick="return mV('1Jo',2,4);">1Jo 2:4</a></li>
|
|
<li>The test — what is being produced through our life
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Slavery to sin produces sin</li>
|
|
<li>Slavery to obedience produces righteousness
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The person who has been justified by faith through the grace of God has a power in him that produces good fruit. It is inside — in the man</li>
