Bible Study
Romans 8:31-39
"Nothing can
separate us from the Love of God"
In the previous blog we studied about the parable
of Rich man and Lazarus and today we study about how Lazarus became righteous
without doing anything! No, my friends! He did what God expect from all of us, HE TRUSTED GOD with all his heart. We see that his circumstances was unfavorable, he was sick, he didn't have
food, home or anything.. Instead of being disappointed, he keep trusting Him, praying and gave glory to Him more and more each passing day. That’s his quality that makes him righteous in God's eyes.
Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust
in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6 In
all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.” ,
Isaiah 43:2 “When thou passest through the waters, I will
be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou
walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame
kindle upon thee.”,
Psalm 56:3 “What
time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.” The great parable
of Grace n judgment of God.
Lazarus obtain God’s mercy, how can we have it? Not by righteous
deeds, good works.. if we could be saved by righteous deeds and good works,
then righteousness would have been based on the law and Christ would not have
needed to die! Then what should we do? First we have to accept that we're
sinners. Even infants are also sinner because of “original sin”. “The original
sin” that Adam and eve did, disobeying God. So our good work, righteous deeds
didn't makes us righteous because we are born in sin but our faith on Almighty God
n His son Jesus Christ n the Holy Spirit. We must not get confused between the
works of the Law and the works of faith. One cannot earn Salvation by the “deeds
of the law” don’t be self-righteous. Romans
3:20 “Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no
flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.” n Romans 3:28 “Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds
of the law .” any man
should boast but no one can take credit for his/her salvation. But that doesn't
mean you stop doing what is righteous, Satan hates it when you practice
righteousness for God's glory; don't let him stop you. Remember! do not live
righteous life just to get everyone's applause (that’s makes you self-righteous),
but be an example for next generation and for non-Christians. Spread the Gospel
by your daily life.Matthew
5:16 "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good
works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven."
In the book of James we
get the good description of righteous deeds “the body without
the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.” and what is those righteous work that we should do? we'll discuss it below..
James 2:14-26 “What doth it profit, my brethren,
though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him?
15 If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of
daily food,
16 And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be
ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are
needful to the body; what doth it profit?
17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being
alone.
18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have
works shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my
works.
19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest
well the devils also believe, and tremble.
20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without
works is dead?
21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when
he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?
22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by
works was faith made perfect?
23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith,
Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness and he was
called the Friend of God.
24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified,
and not by faith only.
25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by
works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way?
26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so
faith without works is dead also.”
Let's go in some more details...
Let's go in some more details...
No one is worthy to enter The KINGDOM of GOD on the basis of good works n self-righteousness, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God" Romans 3:23 But because of GOD’s great love for us, He has given us new birth into a living hope through our LORD n SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST. "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16We are made right with GOD by placing our faith in JESUS CHRIST. “Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.”

"For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death." Romans 8:2, ".....But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. 23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:18-23,Hebrews 2:13-15, GOD has removed our sins from us forever"And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more." Hebrews 10:17that whoever believes n is baptized in His name, GOD gave them the right to become children of GOD; n they will be saved. "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." Romans 10:13 Then the Righteous will shine like the sun in the KINGDOM of FATHER GOD.
All praise to GOD, the FATHER of our LORD JESUS CHRIST."And the LORD their God shall save them in that day as the flock of his people: for they shall be as the stones of a crown, lifted up as an ensign upon his land." Zechariah 9:16
He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

The KINGDOM of GOD is a spiritual rule over the hearts n lives of those who willingly submit to GOD YHWH’s authority."For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God." Ephesians 5:5 indicates that The KINGDOM of GOD also belongs to JESUS CHRIST; that is, it is also The KINGDOM of CHRIST JESUS. Those who refuse to submit to Him are not part of the KINGDOM of GOD, “Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.”1 Corinthians 6:10, “Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.” Galatians 5:21 say that the unrighteous cannot inherit the Kingdom of GOD. People who acknowledge the Lordship of CHRIST, receive HIM as The LORD n Saviour n gladly surrender to YHWH GOD, are become member of the KINGDOM of GOD. “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” Romans 10:9

8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone which is the second death.
9 And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee the bride, the Lamb's wife.
10 And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
11 Having the glory of God and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal;
12 And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel
13 On the east three gates; on the north three gates; on the south three gates; and on the west three gates.
14 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15 And he that talked with me had a golden reed to measure the city, and the gates thereof, and the wall thereof.
16 And the city lieth foursquare, and the length is as large as the breadth and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length and the breadth and the height of it are equal.
17 And he measured the wall thereof, an hundred and forty and four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of the angel.
18 And the building of the wall of it was of jasper and the city was pure gold, like unto clear glass.
19 And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, a chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald;
20 The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, a topaz; the tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a jacinth; the twelfth, an amethyst.
21 And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; every several gate was of one pearl and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass.
22 And I saw no temple therein for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.
23 And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.
24 And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it.
25 And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day for there shall be no night there.

27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.
Revelation 21:1-27

Micah 4:2
And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one.
Zechariah 14:9
Nothing on earth is perfect. Even the most beautiful things of this world are flawed; if we look closely enough, we can always find an imperfection. But CHRIST is truly perfect. He is HOLY, blameless, pure, set apart from sinners, exalted above the HEAVEN, n our inheritance in Him is also HOLY, blameless, exalted, n pure. No earthly corruption or weakness can touch what GOD has bestowed.
This HEAVENLY heritage is GOD’s purpose n will for us.

No one can steal it from us. When we understand and value the glory that awaits us, we are better able to endure whatever comes our way in this life. We can give GOD praise even during trials because we have His guarantee that we will receive all He has promised: Remember -- “He will wipe every tear from their eyes…” Revelation 21:4 n Isaiah 25:8, 51:11
And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

Jeremiah 17:5-10 “Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.
Romans 8:31-39
“What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.
Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Jeremiah 17:5-10 “Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.
6 For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited.
7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.
8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked who can know it?
10 I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.”
Romans 6:17-23
17 But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.
18 Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.
19 I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.
20 For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.
21 What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.
22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
This two are my most favorite Psalm….
Psalm 23 “The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.”
Psalm 121 “I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
2 My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.
3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The LORD is thy keeper the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
7 The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil he shall preserve thy soul.
8 The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.”
But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
Matthew 6:20
For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;
2 Corinthians 4:17
Blessed [is] the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
James 1:12
We give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,
4 Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have to all the saints,
5 For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel;
6 Which is come unto you, as it is in all the world; and bringeth forth fruit, as it doth also in you, since the day ye heard of it, and knew the grace of God in truth
7 As ye also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ;
8 Who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit.
9 For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
10 That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
11 Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
12 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light
Colossians 1:3-12
~~
While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.
19 And Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples.
20 And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment
21 For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole.
22 But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.
23 And when Jesus came into the ruler's house, and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise,
24 He said unto them, Give place for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn.
25 But when the people were put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand, and the maid arose.
26 And the fame hereof went abroad into all that land.
Matthew 9:18-26

We all sinned n deserve GOD’s judgment, but our loving FATHER, GOD sent HIS only begotten SON to satisfy that judgment for those who believe in HIM. JESUS, our LORD who lived a sinless life, loves us so much that HE died for our sins, taking the punishment that we deserve, was buries n rose from the dead according to the Holy Bible. If you truly believe n trust in your heart, receiving JESUS alone as your SAVIOUR, declaring (by Baptism) JESUS is The LORD n SAVIOUR, you will be SAVED from the judgment n spend ETERNITY with GOD in HEAVEN….
In The name of our LORD JESUS CHRIST.. Amen
