>>BILL: WELL, WELCOME
TO TODAY'S "IT IS WRITTEN"
00:00:58.50\00:00:59.50
PROGRAM. DR.
KNIGHT, WELCOME BACK. >>DR.
00:00:59.50\00:01:01.20
KNIGHT: WELL, I'LL TELL
YOU, BILL, IT'S GOOD TO BE
00:01:01.20\00:01:03.06
BACK. WE'RE STUDYING
MY FAVOURITE BOOK. >>BILL:
00:01:03.06\00:01:04.10
WELL, WONDERFUL. WE
PROBABLY HAVE SOME VIEWERS
00:01:04.10\00:01:06.03
THAT ARE JOINING US
FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME. WE
00:01:06.03\00:01:09.10
DON'T WANT TO SPEND
TOO MUCH TIME ON THE REVIEW
00:01:09.10\00:01:10.26
BUT IF WE COULD JUST
QUICKLY.BECAUSE WE'VE
00:01:10.26\00:01:13.30
GOTTEN UP TO CHAPTER
FIVE.>>DR. KNIGHT: THAT'S
00:01:13.30\00:01:16.43
RIGHT. >>BILL:.AND IF
YOU COULD MAYBE IN JUST
00:01:16.43\00:01:17.43
A MINUTE OR TWO GIVE US
A QUICK SYNOPSIS OF WHAT'S
00:01:17.43\00:01:19.86
ALREADY COVERED AND THEN
WE WANT TO GET RIGHT INTO
00:01:19.86\00:01:22.80
CHAPTER SIX AND GO
FORWARD. >>DR. KNIGHT:
00:01:22.80\00:01:23.80
GOOD. WELL, THE FIRST
HALF OF CHAPTER ONE IS JUST
00:01:23.80\00:01:25.56
PAUL BASICALLY INTRODUCING
HIMSELF AND, YOU KNOW,
00:01:25.56\00:01:29.06
HERE I AM AND SETTING
SOME THEMES ABOUT SALVATION,
00:01:29.06\00:01:30.13
ABOUT THE GOSPEL. AND
THEN IN THE SECOND HALF HE
00:01:30.13\00:01:37.26
BEGINS TO INTRODUCE
THE PROBLEM THAT MUST BE
00:01:37.26\00:01:43.03
CURED. THE PROBLEM
THAT ALL OF US ARE UNDER
00:01:43.03\00:01:44.00
CONDEMNATION SUBJECT TO
DEATH, WHY? BECAUSE OF THE
00:01:44.00\00:01:48.03
PROBLEM OF SIN. THE
SECOND HALF OF CHAPTER ONE DEALS
00:01:48.03\00:01:53.43
WITH THE SINS OF THE
GENTILES, WHAT I CALL THE
00:01:53.43\00:01:54.40
NASTY PEOPLE AND THEN
WE GET TO CHAPTER TWO AND
00:01:54.40\00:01:59.80
CHAPTER TWO DEALS WITH
THE SINS OF THE CHURCH PEOPLE
00:01:59.80\00:02:07.10
OF THAT DAY, THE
JEWISH PEOPLE. OH, YOU THINK
00:02:07.10\00:02:08.20
YOU'RE SO SMUG, YOU
THINK YOU'RE BETTER THAN OTHER
00:02:08.20\00:02:14.66
PEOPLE. YOU HAVE THE
SAME PROBLEM. >>BILL: PROBLEM.
00:02:14.66\00:02:19.56
>>DR. KNIGHT: WHICH
BRINGS US TO CHAPTER THREE. ALL
00:02:19.56\00:02:20.70
HAVE SINNED AND COME
SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD.
00:02:20.70\00:02:23.03
THEREFORE, GOD HAS A
PLAN OF SALVATION, NOT THROUGH
00:02:23.03\00:02:30.20
THE LAW.THE LAWS GOOD
BUT THAT'S NOT HOW YOU GET
00:02:30.20\00:02:31.23
SAVED. THE FUNCTION OF
THE LAW IS TO SAY YOU'RE
00:02:31.23\00:02:34.80
A SINNER AND IT POINTS
YOU TO JESUS AND HIS GRACE AND
00:02:34.80\00:02:38.80
HIS SACRIFICE WHICH YOU
ACCEPT BY FAITH. AND AS WE
00:02:38.80\00:02:39.86
MOVE THROUGH WE FIND
OUT THAT THE GREATEST JEW
00:02:39.86\00:02:46.53
OF ALL TIME, ABRAHAM,
WAS SAVED BY FAITH. TRUE
00:02:46.53\00:02:52.40
FAITH. WE MOVE INTO
CHAPTER FIVE AND WE HAVE
00:02:52.40\00:02:53.46
PEACE WITH GOD. >>BILL:
BEAUTIFUL. >>DR. KNIGHT:
00:02:53.46\00:02:59.83
BECAUSE YOU'RE
JUSTIFIED, COUNTED RIGHTEOUS BY
00:02:59.83\00:03:02.60
FAITH. >>BILL: EXCELLENT.
00:03:02.60\00:03:03.23
SO, WE MOVE INTO CHAPTER
SIX. WHAT DO WE LEARN FROM
00:03:03.23\00:03:11.90
CHAPTER SIX GOING FORWARD?
00:03:11.90\00:03:12.60
>>DR. KNIGHT: WELL, THE
FIRST THING WE LEARN IS IN
00:03:12.60\00:03:14.43
THE BACKGROUND THERE'S
A BUNCH OF PEOPLE SAYING,
00:03:14.43\00:03:15.43
THIS GUY TEACHES GRACE.
00:03:15.43\00:03:18.33
HUH, HE MUST NOT BE A
VERY GOOD CHRISTIAN. READ WHAT
00:03:18.33\00:03:19.40
IT SAYS, "WHAT SHALL
WE SAY THEN? ARE WE TO
00:03:19.40\00:03:26.63
CONTINUE IN SIN THAT
GRACE MAY ABOUND?" OH MY, WHAT
00:03:26.63\00:03:31.10
DOES THAT MEAN? WELL,
IF GOD GETS GLORY FROM
00:03:31.10\00:03:32.06
FORGIVING US, WOULDN'T
IT BE JUST AS GOOD, BILL,
00:03:32.06\00:03:38.70
IF WE WENT OUT AND
SINNED AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE? GOD
00:03:38.70\00:03:40.33
WOULD GET MORE GLORY,
THERE WOULD BE MORE GRACE
00:03:40.33\00:03:41.33
I MEAN, YOU FIND THE
SAME ACCUSATION BACK IN
00:03:41.33\00:03:46.83
CHAPTER THREE AND YOU
COME TO THESE PEOPLE WHO ARE
00:03:46.83\00:03:50.73
ALWAYS SAYING, YOU
KNOW, CHEAP GRACE, CHEAP GRACE
00:03:50.73\00:03:51.70
YOU TALK ABOUT GRACE,
YOU'RE NOT A GOOD GOSPEL
00:03:51.70\00:03:56.20
PREACHER, ALL YOU'VE GOT
IS CHEAP GRACE. SO, THAT'S
00:03:56.20\00:03:58.36
WHAT PAUL IS REALLY
SAYING HERE. HE'S TAKING HIS
00:03:58.36\00:03:59.50
CRITICS AND HE'S
PUTTING WORDS IN THEIR MOUTH,
00:03:59.50\00:04:04.96
IN WHICH TO BUILD HIS
ARGUMENT. HE DOES THIS ALL
00:04:04.96\00:04:10.53
THE WAY THROUGH THE BOOK
OF ROMANS. SO, WE'LL READ
00:04:10.53\00:04:11.53
THAT AGAIN WITH THAT IN
MIND, "SHALL WE SAY THEN
00:04:11.53\00:04:15.13
ARE WE TO CONTINUE IN SIN
THAT GRACE MAY ABOUND". BY
00:04:15.13\00:04:23.20
NO MEANS. WHAT DOES
YOUR.>>BILL: "MAY IT NEVER
00:04:23.20\00:04:24.20
BE." >>DR. KNIGHT:
"MAY IT NEVER". THIS IS THE
00:04:24.20\00:04:28.93
STRONGEST NEGATIVE THAT
PAUL CAN USE AND HE USES
00:04:28.93\00:04:32.20
IT OVER AND OVER AS HE
PUTS HIS ACCUSER OUT THERE
00:04:32.20\00:04:33.33
WITH A QUESTION THAT
HE WANTS TO ANSWER. BY
00:04:33.33\00:04:36.86
NO.NEVER. >>BILL: THIS
IS RIDICULOUS. >>DR. KNIGHT:
00:04:36.86\00:04:42.20
THAT IS A RIDICULOUS
ARGUMENT. >>BILL: RIGHT.
00:04:42.20\00:04:43.13
>>DR. KNIGHT: SEE, FOR
PAUL.LET PAUL SAY IT, I
00:04:43.13\00:04:47.33
DON'T WANT TO SAY IT.
"BY NO MEANS, HOW CAN WE WHO
00:04:47.33\00:04:54.26
HAVE DIED TO SIN STILL
LIVE IN IT?" NOW, WE'VE
00:04:54.26\00:04:55.26
HAD THREE CHAPTERS OF
JUSTIFICATION BY FAITH.
00:04:55.26\00:05:01.66
THAT'S WHAT GOD DID
FOR ME. HE SAYS, YOU HAVE
00:05:01.66\00:05:09.60
BELIEVED IN THE
CHRIST WHO DIED FOR YOU, WAS
00:05:09.60\00:05:10.56
RESERRECTED, HE
GIVES YOU ON THE BASIS
00:05:10.56\00:05:15.56
OF THAT SACRIFICE AND
RESERRECTION, HE GIVES YOU
00:05:15.56\00:05:19.83
GRACE. HE GIVES YOU
GRACE AND YOU ACCEPT IT
00:05:19.83\00:05:20.80
BY FAITH. >>BILL: IT'S
A GIFT. >>DR. KNIGHT: AND
00:05:20.80\00:05:26.43
I'M GONNA TELL YOU
WHAT, HE SAYS, THAT EXPERIENCE
00:05:26.43\00:05:29.13
WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE.
00:05:29.13\00:05:29.63
>>BILL: RIGHT. >>DR.
00:05:29.63\00:05:30.06
KNIGHT: PAUL NEVER
SEPARATES LAW AND GRACE.
00:05:30.06\00:05:35.63
HE NEVER
SEPARATES JUSTIFICATION AND
00:05:35.63\00:05:38.56
SANCTIFICATION. NO.
ONCE YOU HAVE BEEN SAVED IN
00:05:38.56\00:05:39.53
CHRIST YOU WILL WALK
WITH HIM. REMEMBER 1:5 AND
00:05:39.53\00:05:44.40
16:26.>>BILL: YES. THE
OBEDIENCE. >>DR. KNIGHT:
00:05:44.40\00:05:51.16
THE FRAMING TEXTS.
THE OBEDIENCE OF FAITH. HE
00:05:51.16\00:05:52.13
GIVES THREE CHAPTERS OF
JUSTIFICATION; HE'S GOING
00:05:52.13\00:05:55.60
TO GIVE SIX CHAPTERS
TO OBEDIENCE. WALKING IN
00:05:55.60\00:05:59.86
FAITH WITH CHRIST. IF
YOU'RE A CHRISTIAN, IF
00:05:59.86\00:06:01.03
YOU'VE ACCEPTED GOD'S
GRACE, YOU HAVE DIED TO
00:06:01.03\00:06:08.03
SIN AS A WAY OF LIFE.
YOU HAVE.YOU'RE NOT GOING TO
00:06:08.03\00:06:14.10
LIVE IN REBELLION
AGAINST GOD ANYMORE. >>BILL: AND
00:06:14.10\00:06:15.23
ONCE YOU'VE RECOGNIZED
THE SIZE OF THE DEBT THAT
00:06:15.23\00:06:18.86
WAS PAID, CAN'T HELP BUT
CHANGE YOU. >>DR. KNIGHT:
00:06:18.86\00:06:22.36
NO. WE'RE GOING TO GET
TO THIS WORD OVER IN CHAPTER
00:06:22.36\00:06:23.40
TWELVE ON TRANSFORMATION.
00:06:23.40\00:06:25.80
WE'LL COME TO THAT WORD
NEXT WEEK. TREMENDOUS WORD
00:06:25.80\00:06:26.86
THAT WHEN JESUS COMES
INTO YOUR LIFE HE CHANGES YOUR
00:06:26.86\00:06:32.56
HEART, HE CHANGES YOUR
MIND. AND YOU'VE DIED TO
00:06:32.56\00:06:36.40
SIN; YOU'VE BEEN
RESERRECTED TO SOMETHING
00:06:36.40\00:06:37.33
ELSE. THAT'S WHAT
PAUL'S GOING TO SAY HERE.
00:06:37.33\00:06:40.26
SO, OKAY, I GET KIND
OF EXCITED ABOUT THESE
00:06:40.26\00:06:44.96
VERSES. YOU CAN TELL THAT.
00:06:44.96\00:06:45.53
>>BILL: THAT'S GREAT.
00:06:45.53\00:06:46.00
WONDERFUL. >>DR.
KNIGHT: "BY NO MEANS, HOW CAN WE
00:06:46.00\00:06:48.96
THAT HAVE DIED TO SINS
STILL LIVE IN IT. DO YOU
00:06:48.96\00:06:54.93
NOT KNOW THAT ALL OF
US WHO HAVE BEEN BAPTIZED
00:06:54.93\00:06:55.93
INTO CHRIST JESUS WERE
BAPTIZED INTO HIS DEATH.
00:06:55.93\00:07:01.93
WE WERE BURIED, THEREFORE,
WITH HIM BY BAPTISM INTO
00:07:01.93\00:07:09.20
DEATH. SO AS CHRIST RAISED
FROM THE DEAD BY THE GLORY
00:07:09.20\00:07:10.30
OF THE FATHER WE TOO
MIGHT WALK IN NEWNESS OF LIGHT."
00:07:10.30\00:07:16.00
THAT'S A POWERFUL PASSAGE.
00:07:16.00\00:07:16.63
>>BILL: YES. >>DR.
KNIGHT: AND WHAT HE'S REALLY
00:07:16.63\00:07:23.76
TALKING ABOUT IS THE
TRANSFORMATION THAT COMES
00:07:23.76\00:07:27.96
INTO A CHRISTIANS LIFE.
00:07:27.96\00:07:28.50
YOU CANNOT BE SAVED BY
GRACE AND CONTINUE ON AS A
00:07:28.50\00:07:33.83
WINO.>>BILL: RIGHT. >>DR.
00:07:33.83\00:07:34.36
KNIGHT:.OR AS A PROUD
PHAROSY. >>BILL: RIGHT.
00:07:34.36\00:07:38.50
>>DR. KNIGHT: NO.
JESUS DID IT ALL. YOU HAVE NO
00:07:38.50\00:07:39.53
ROOM FOR PRIDE. NOT IN
YOUR BADNESS AND NOT IN
00:07:39.53\00:07:42.80
YOUR GOODNESS BUT THERE
IS A SIDE LESSON HERE. AS
00:07:42.80\00:07:47.96
YOU'VE BEEN BAPTIZED
INTO HIS DEATH, YOU AND YOU
00:07:47.96\00:07:48.96
WERE RAISED. WELL, WAIT
A MINUTE. THIS IS A SIDE
00:07:48.96\00:07:54.33
LESSON ON THE SIGNIFICANCE
OF BAPTISM. WE KIND OF
00:07:54.33\00:07:59.10
FIND IT IN THE GOSPELS
WHERE JESUS WENT DOWN INTO
00:07:59.10\00:08:00.33
THE WATER TO GET BAPTIZED.
00:08:00.33\00:08:04.20
YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT
IF YOU GET SPRINKLED ON. I
00:08:04.20\00:08:05.26
DON'T KNOW IF YOU GOT
THAT FIGURED OUT OR NOT. AND IN
00:08:05.26\00:08:08.60
THE BOOK OF ACTS, I THINK
IT'S PHILLIP WHO SAYS, THE
00:08:08.60\00:08:12.10
EGYPTIAN SAYS WHAT?
BEING BAPTIZED, THERE'S A LOT
00:08:12.10\00:08:13.23
OF WATER HERE, A LOT
OF WATER. WELL, HERE WE
00:08:13.23\00:08:16.73
HAVE A SYMBOLISM OF
WHAT THE ENTIRE CHRISTIAN
00:08:16.73\00:08:19.86
EXPERIENCE IS ALL ABOUT.
00:08:19.86\00:08:20.36
YOU GET BURIED WITH
CHRIST; THE WAY OF SIN IS
00:08:20.36\00:08:28.36
BURIED. YOU GET
RESERRECTED TO A NEW WAY
00:08:28.36\00:08:29.23
OF LIFE. IT IS
BAPTISM BY IMMERSION WHICH IS
00:08:29.23\00:08:32.83
WHAT THE WORD "BAPTISMAL"
MEANS. YOU KNOW, YOU CAN'T
00:08:32.83\00:08:36.73
GET THE SAME
SYMBOLISM BY GETTING THE WATER
00:08:36.73\00:08:37.66
SPRINKLED ON YOUR HEAD.
00:08:37.66\00:08:39.73
>>BILL: YES. >>DR.
00:08:39.73\00:08:40.16
KNIGHT: SO, THE WHOLE
PLAN OF SALVATION IS ACTUALLY
00:08:40.16\00:08:42.30
SYMBOLIZED BY THIS WORD
'BAPTISM'. YOU DIE TO THE
00:08:42.30\00:08:43.33
OLD WAY OF LIFE; YOU'RE
RESERRECTED TO A NEW WAY
00:08:43.33\00:08:51.36
OF LIFE. AND ALL THE WAY
THROUGH THE BIBLE YOU WILL
00:08:51.36\00:08:56.23
FIND THIS WORD 'WALK'. IN
FACT, IT'S PROBABLY ONE OF
00:08:56.23\00:08:57.30
THE MOST USED WORDS IN
THE NEW TESTAMENT. >>BILL:
00:08:57.30\00:09:07.10
WALK. >>DR. KNIGHT: YEAH.
00:09:07.10\00:09:07.60
NEARLY ALL OF THE BIBLE
WRITERS ARE TALKING ABOUT
00:09:07.60\00:09:11.80
WALKING WITH GOD.
SEE, SALVATION IS NOT JUST
00:09:11.80\00:09:17.90
GETTING YOUR NAME
CLEARED FROM THE PENALTY
00:09:17.90\00:09:18.90
SALVATION IS SAYING,
I'M SO THANKFUL, GOD. I WANT
00:09:18.90\00:09:24.00
TO WALK WITH YOU. AND
SO, MY BAPTISM SIGNIFIES THAT
00:09:24.00\00:09:32.30
MY OLD, SELFISH WAY TO
LIFE IS GONE. I'VE BEEN
00:09:32.30\00:09:33.40
RAISED TO A NEW WALK
WITH GOD. NOW, I'VE GOT TO
00:09:33.40\00:09:41.96
PUT ONE LITTLE THING
IN HERE THAT'S NOT IN THIS
00:09:41.96\00:09:46.33
PARTICULAR PASSAGE. WE
BETTER GET SOME PEOPLE TO
00:09:46.33\00:09:47.33
REALIZE THAT JUST
BECAUSE THEY'VE BEEN BAPTIZED
00:09:47.33\00:09:51.66
DOESN'T MEAN THAT
THEY'RE TOTALLY SINLESS. IT
00:09:51.66\00:09:58.26
REMINDS ME OF AN
ISLAMIC STUDENT I HAD WHEN I WAS
00:09:58.26\00:09:59.23
TEACHING AT THE
UNIVERSITY AND HE TOOK
00:09:59.23\00:10:01.83
A PHILOSOPHY CLASS
FROM ME NEVER.STUDYING FOR A
00:10:01.83\00:10:04.53
P.H.D. IN MINISTRATION
HE HAD TO TAKE MY CLASS. IT
00:10:04.53\00:10:05.53
WAS A CHRISTIAN UNIVERSITY
AND ONE DAY HE CAME TO ME
00:10:05.53\00:10:12.90
AND SAID, WOULD YOU HELP
ME BUY A BIBLE? I THOUGHT
00:10:12.90\00:10:17.06
THAT WAS GREAT, CAME
FROM ARABIA, THAT WAS GREAT,
00:10:17.06\00:10:18.10
WANTS TO BUY A BIBLE,
MIGHT LEARN SOMETHING. AND
00:10:18.10\00:10:21.36
THEN ANOTHER TIME HE
COMES BACK AND SAYS, YOU'VE GOT
00:10:21.36\00:10:25.63
TO HELP ME. HE SAYS I
WENT TO A CHURCH, THE FIRST
00:10:25.63\00:10:26.66
TIME I EVER WENT TO A
CHRISTIAN CHURCH BEFORE.
00:10:26.66\00:10:28.66
AND I SAY, YEAH, WHAT'S
THE PROBLEM? HE SAYS, IT
00:10:28.66\00:10:33.93
WAS A BAPTIST CHURCH
AND HE SAYS THAT TWO MEN GOT
00:10:33.93\00:10:35.03
UP FRONT AND ONE MAN
PUT THE OTHER MAN UNDER THE
00:10:35.03\00:10:39.10
WATER. AND HE SAYS, WHEN
THE GUY CAME UP THE FIRST
00:10:39.10\00:10:43.86
ONE SAYS, YOU'RE A
NEW MAN. AND THIS BROTHER
00:10:43.86\00:10:44.90
FROM OUTSIDE THE CHRISTIAN
WORLD SAYS I LOOKED VERY
00:10:44.90\00:10:51.20
CAREFULLY, THAT WAS
THE SAME MAN THAT WENT INTO
00:10:51.20\00:10:54.66
THE WATER. >>BILL: THAT
WENT INTO THE WATER. >>DR.
00:10:54.66\00:10:55.73
KNIGHT: I WANT TO
TELL YOU, BILL, WHEN I WAS
00:10:55.73\00:10:59.80
BAPTIZED AT THE AGE OF
NINETEEN, I WENT INTO THE
00:10:59.80\00:11:03.30
WATER. I DIED TO THE
OLD WAY OF LIFE BUT I STILL
00:11:03.30\00:11:04.43
HAD SOME MEMORY. I HAD
SOME HABIT TRACKS STAMPED,
00:11:04.43\00:11:10.46
YOU KNOW, INTO THE.AND
SO, I HAD A COUPLE OF PROBLEMS
00:11:10.46\00:11:15.26
LEFT. BUT THE BOOK
OF.LET'S SAY FIRST JOHN,
00:11:15.26\00:11:16.16
HE KNOWS WE'RE GONNA SIN
AND IF WE SIN AND CONFESS
00:11:16.16\00:11:20.63
IT, HE IS FAITHFUL AND
JUST AND HE CLEANSES US.
00:11:20.63\00:11:24.60
THERE'S A SENSE IN WHICH
JUSTIFICATION GOES ON. THE
00:11:24.60\00:11:25.63
DIFFERENCE IS AFTER I'M
A CHRISTIAN I HATE WHAT I
00:11:25.63\00:11:29.90
HAVE DONE. I HATE WHAT
I HAVE DONE. I MIGHT FEEL
00:11:29.90\00:11:33.13
JUSTIFIED IN GETTING
MAD WITH MY KIDS OR MY WIFE
00:11:33.13\00:11:34.13
BUT, YOU KNOW, LOSING
MY TEMPER IS NEVER THE
00:11:34.13\00:11:37.43
CHRISTIAN WAY. AND SO,
I GET ON MY KNEES AND SAY,
00:11:37.43\00:11:41.03
GOD FORGIVE ME, I'M A
SINNER AND HE CLEANSES
00:11:41.03\00:11:42.13
ME SO, IN A SENSE,
JUSTIFICATION IS DAY BY
00:11:42.13\00:11:45.93
DAY AS WE WALK WITH
GOD IF WE WALK WITH GOD AND
00:11:45.93\00:11:50.46
NEVER STUMBLED IT WOULD
BE WONDERFUL. BUT, I DON'T
00:11:50.46\00:11:51.53
KNOW HOW IT IS WITH YOU,
BILL, BUT I HAVE STUMBLED.
00:11:51.53\00:11:56.56
>>BILL: OH, I DO MY
SHARE OF STUMBLING. >>DR.
00:11:56.56\00:11:58.43
KNIGHT: I REMEMBER WHERE
I STUMBLED BACK IN 1967, ONE
00:11:58.43\00:11:59.66
TIME AND ABOUT EVERY
DAY SINCE THEN. ANYWAY,
00:11:59.66\00:12:02.36
SO, YOU'RE BAPTIZED
INTO CHRIST, RESERRECTED TO A
00:12:02.36\00:12:10.60
NEW WAY OF LIFE. VERSE
FIVE, "FOR UNITED IN HIM
00:12:10.60\00:12:11.56
IN A DEATH LIKE HIS WE
SHALL CERTAINLY BE UNITED
00:12:11.56\00:12:15.53
WITH HIM IN A RESERRECTION
LIKE HIS. WE KNOW THAT OUR
00:12:15.53\00:12:19.56
OLD SELF WAS
CRUCIFIED WITH HIM SO THAT THE
00:12:19.56\00:12:20.50
SINFUL BODY MIGHT BE
DESTROYED AND WE MIGHT
00:12:20.50\00:12:25.86
NO LONGER BE ENSLAVED
TO SIN". AND, JOHN WESLEY,
00:12:25.86\00:12:31.56
THE FOUNDER OF METHODISM,
WAS VERY PROFOUND WHEN HE
00:12:31.56\00:12:32.60
SAYS.UM, NOW I LOST THE
PHRASE. WHEN HE SAYS, "SIN
00:12:32.60\00:12:41.10
IS CRUCIFIED BUT IT
STILL REMAINS". IN OTHER WORDS,
00:12:41.10\00:12:47.40
WE STILL HAVE PROBLEMS
IN OUR LIVES BUT WE'RE NO
00:12:47.40\00:12:48.53
LONGER ENSLAVED TO SIN.
00:12:48.53\00:12:52.63
IT'S NO LONGER OUR MASTER.
00:12:52.63\00:12:53.33
WE HAVE A NEW MASTER
AND WE'RE NOT ENSLAVED AND
00:12:53.33\00:12:58.03
THAT'S A CRUCIAL WORD.
IN THIS CHAPTER IT WILL TALK
00:12:58.03\00:12:59.06
ABOUT SLAVERY AND YOU
ONLY HAVE TWO CHOICES: DO
00:12:59.06\00:13:00.73
YOU WANT TO BE A SLAVE TO
RIGHTEOUSNESS, DO YOU WANT
00:13:00.73\00:13:07.46
TO BE A SLAVE TO
CHRIST OR DO YOU WANT TO
00:13:07.46\00:13:08.36
BE A SLAVE TO SIN
AND UNRIGHTEOUSNESS? SO,
00:13:08.36\00:13:12.06
ANYWAY, WE HAVE A NEW
WALK AND THAT'S WHAT I WANT THE
00:13:12.06\00:13:17.43
AUDIENCE OUT HERE TO
REMEMBER. THAT WHEN WE
00:13:17.43\00:13:18.36
COME TO JESUS AND WE'VE
SAID, GOD, FORGIVE ME I'M
00:13:18.36\00:13:22.36
A SINNER. BY HIS GRACE
HE JUSTIFIES US AND HE SENDS
00:13:22.36\00:13:27.86
US OUT TO WALK WITH
HIM. THAT'S IT, THAT'S IT,
00:13:27.86\00:13:28.86
VERSE 12, THIS IS THE
WORD I WAS LOOKING FOR WITH
00:13:28.86\00:13:36.93
WESLEY, "LET NOT SIN
THEREFORE REIGN IN YOUR
00:13:36.93\00:13:40.46
MORTAL BODIES".
WESLEY'S PHRASE WAS "SIN REMAINS
00:13:40.46\00:13:41.46
BUT IT NO LONGER REIGNS".
00:13:41.46\00:13:48.00
YEAH, YEAH. WE'RE STILL
THE SAME PERSON THAT WENT
00:13:48.00\00:13:49.13
DOWN INTO THE WATER BUT
WE HAVE A DIFFERENT LORD.
00:13:49.13\00:13:51.90
THAT'S IT. I KNEW IT WAS
DOWN THERE SOMEWHERE. NOW,
00:13:51.90\00:13:55.90
VERSE 16, "DO YOU NOT
KNOW THAT IF YOU YIELD
00:13:55.90\00:13:56.86
YOURSELVES TO ANYONE AS
OBEDIENT SLAVES, YOU'RE A
00:13:56.86\00:14:00.23
SLAVE TO THE ONE WHOM
YOU OBEY, EITHER OF SIN WHICH
00:14:00.23\00:14:04.50
LEADS TO DEATH OR OF
OBEDIENCE WHICH LEADS TO
00:14:04.50\00:14:05.43
RIGHTEOUSNESS".
THERE'S THE PHRASE THAT TELLS
00:14:05.43\00:14:09.23
US HOW MUCH FREE WILL
WE REALLY HAVE. WE HAVE THE
00:14:09.23\00:14:14.53
FREE WILL TO CHOOSE BY
GOD'S GRACE. TO SERVE HIM
00:14:14.53\00:14:15.53
OR TO SERVE THE DEVIL.
00:14:15.53\00:14:17.83
>>BILL: RIGHT. >>DR.
00:14:17.83\00:14:18.43
KNIGHT: BUT WE'RE NOT
FREE AGENTS. WHEN PEOPLE THINK,
00:14:18.43\00:14:20.60
OH, I'M JUST NEUTRAL.
00:14:20.60\00:14:21.10
UH, UH, NOBODY IS NEUTRAL.
00:14:21.10\00:14:21.63
AND THEN WE GET TO THE
TWO SLAVERIES AND THAT LEADS
00:14:21.63\00:14:31.06
TO THE TWO PATHS. AND
WHERE DO THE TWO PATHS
00:14:31.06\00:14:36.50
LEAD, AND OF COURSE
THERE'S ONLY TWO PATHS,
00:14:36.50\00:14:37.46
SLAVERY TO SIN, SLAVERY
TO RIGHTEOUSNESS, WALKING
00:14:37.46\00:14:40.03
IN SIN, WALKING IN
RIGHTEOUSNESS AND THERE'S
00:14:40.03\00:14:47.46
TWO DESTINATIONS. AND THE
DESTINATIONS ARE DOWN HERE
00:14:47.46\00:14:48.53
AT THE END OF THE CHAPTER,
"FOR THE WAGES OF SIN IS
00:14:48.53\00:14:53.26
DEATH". AND, BY THE
WAY, WAGES IS SOMETHING YOU
00:14:53.26\00:14:58.50
EARN. YOU CAN EARN DEATH
BUT "THE FREE GIFT OF GOD
00:14:58.50\00:14:59.50
IS ETERNAL LIFE IN
CHRIST JESUS, OUR LORD". TWO
00:14:59.50\00:15:04.83
LORDS, TWO
SLAVERIES, TWO PATHS.>>BILL: TWO
00:15:04.83\00:15:11.50
DESTINATIONS. >>DR.
00:15:11.50\00:15:11.96
KNIGHT:.TWO
DESTINATIONS THAT'S THE GOSPEL
00:15:11.96\00:15:14.00
ACCORDING TO PAUL AND
WE CAN HAVE THE PREFERRED
00:15:14.00\00:15:15.06
DESTINATION BECAUSE
WHEN IT'S TALKING ABOUT
00:15:15.06\00:15:19.70
HERE, IT SAYS.THIS IS
AN INTERESTING PHRASE, "FOR
00:15:19.70\00:15:24.10
THE WAGES OF SIN IS
DEATH BUT THE FREE GIFT OF
00:15:24.10\00:15:25.06
GOD IS ETERNAL LIFE."
OH, ETERNAL LIFE. LIFE THAT
00:15:25.06\00:15:30.20
NEVER ENDS. AND THE
OTHER ONE IS ETERNAL DEATH.
00:15:30.20\00:15:34.33
DEATH THAT NEVER ENDS.
00:15:34.33\00:15:34.83
AND, BY THE WAY PLEASE
NOTE, BILL, THAT THE BIBLE
00:15:34.83\00:15:38.03
SAYS THAT THE REWARD OF
THE WICKED IS DEATH. AND
00:15:38.03\00:15:39.03
WHEN THEY BURN IN
HELL FIRE, THEY BURN UNTIL
00:15:39.03\00:15:44.83
THEY'RE BURNED UP.
THAT'S HOW COME IT'S CALLED THE
00:15:44.83\00:15:47.76
'SECOND DEATH'. THAT'S
A SIDE TOPIC BUT YOU CAN
00:15:47.76\00:15:48.73
SEE THAT ROMANS IS FULL
OF SIDE TOPICS, OF BAPTISM
00:15:48.73\00:15:54.06
AND DEATH. WELL, HERE
WE GET.SO NOW WE'VE GOTTEN
00:15:54.06\00:15:56.13
RID OF THE PROBLEM
OF CONDEMNATION, WE'RE
00:15:56.13\00:15:57.03
JUSTIFIED. AND NOW
WE'VE GOT RID OF LAWLESSNESS.
00:15:57.03\00:16:06.46
YOU CAN'T LIVE A LAWLESS
LIFE. YOU CAN'T JUST, YOU
00:16:06.46\00:16:11.76
KNOW, BILL, JUST
BECAUSE YOU'RE A CHRISTIAN
00:16:11.76\00:16:12.80
AND YOU'VE BEEN FORGIVEN
DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN HAVE
00:16:12.80\00:16:14.76
SIX WIVES. >>BILL: RIGHT.
00:16:14.76\00:16:15.26
>>DR. KNIGHT: I MEAN,
EVEN SIX ON THE SIDE, NOT
00:16:15.26\00:16:17.93
FORMERLY MARRIED WHICH
IS PROBABLY AGAINST THE LAW.
00:16:17.93\00:16:20.63
BUT, YOU'VE GOT TO WALK
WITH GOD. >>BILL: JUST FOR
00:16:20.63\00:16:21.70
THE RECORD, I ONLY HAVE
ONE WIFE AND NONE ON THE
00:16:21.70\00:16:28.00
SIDE. >>DR. KNIGHT:
OKAY, GOOD. YOU'RE DOING BETTER
00:16:28.00\00:16:31.86
THAN THE WOMAN AT
THE WELL. >>BILL: THAT'S
00:16:31.86\00:16:32.73
RIGHT. >>DR. KNIGHT: SO,
OKAY, WHAT ABOUT THE LAW?
00:16:32.73\00:16:35.66
DOES IT HAVE A PLACE IN
THE CHRISTIANS LIFE? WELL,
00:16:35.66\00:16:42.66
WE TALKED ABOUT THE...LAST
WEEK, WE TALKED, JUST A
00:16:42.66\00:16:43.73
BIT, OVER IN 3:31 IT
SAYS, 'DOES FAITH DO AWAY WITH
00:16:43.73\00:16:46.60
THE LAW?' AND PAUL SAYS,
NO, IT ESTABLISHES IT. WHY
00:16:46.60\00:16:47.60
WOULD A CHRISTIAN WANT
TO HAVE THE LAW ESTABLISHED
00:16:47.60\00:16:48.60
IN THEIR LIVES? WELL,
LET'S GO ON HERE. LET'S
00:16:48.60\00:16:55.20
JUST START WITH VERSE 12
OF CHAPTER SEVEN, "SO THE
00:16:55.20\00:17:01.93
LAW IS HOLY", WOW, "AND
THE COMMANDMENT IS HOLY,
00:17:01.93\00:17:02.93
JUST AND GOOD". AND IF
YOU READ DOWN HERE IN VERSE
00:17:02.93\00:17:08.20
14 YOU KNOW THAT "THE
LAW IS SPIRITUAL". SO THERE'S
00:17:08.20\00:17:11.93
SOMETHING GOOD IN THE LAW.
00:17:11.93\00:17:12.60
I MEAN, AFTER ALL, IF
THE LAWS ARE A REFLECTION OF
00:17:12.60\00:17:17.40
GOD'S CHARACTER AND IT'S
HIS IDEAL, I MEAN, DO YOU
00:17:17.40\00:17:18.40
KNOW OF ANY CHRISTIANS
WHO ARE ARGUING THAT ADULTERY
00:17:18.40\00:17:22.36
IS THE WAY WE OUGHT TO
GO, OR THIEVRY OR USING GOD'S
00:17:22.36\00:17:26.06
NAME IN VAIN. >>BILL: OF
COURSE NOT. >>DR. KNIGHT:
00:17:26.06\00:17:27.16
THE LAW IS HOLY, IT'S
GOOD; IT SHOWS US THE WAY
00:17:27.16\00:17:31.90
OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. AND
WHAT DID PAUL THAT SIN WAS OVER
00:17:31.90\00:17:35.36
IN ROMANS 3:20? "SIN IS
THE BREAKING OF THE LAW.
00:17:35.36\00:17:36.46
THAT'S HOW COME YOU
NEED GRACE. YOU KNOW, YOU'RE
00:17:36.46\00:17:43.43
GOING THROUGH LIFE AND
YOU DO SOMETHING WRONG THE
00:17:43.43\00:17:45.90
GREAT LAW OF, FINGER
OF THE LAW.YOU KNOW, I WAS
00:17:45.90\00:17:46.93
TOLD AS A PREACHER
YOU SHOULD NEVER POINT AT
00:17:46.93\00:17:50.16
OTHER PEOPLE.I'M NOT A
PREACHER RIGHT NOW, I'M
00:17:50.16\00:17:52.36
THE LAW. THE LAW SAYS,
OKAY, YOU THINK YOU'RE A
00:17:52.36\00:17:53.33
NICE GUY, I SAW THE WAY
YOU LOOKED AT THAT LADY,
00:17:53.33\00:18:01.43
BONG. HERE COMES THE LAW
INTO, INTO EFFECT. >>BILL:
00:18:01.43\00:18:05.23
YEAH. >>DR. KNIGHT:
OKAY, SO THAT'S ONE THING THAT
00:18:05.23\00:18:06.23
CHAPTER SEVEN SAYS
ABOUT THE LAW. VERSE SEVEN,
00:18:06.23\00:18:13.96
OKAY, LET'S SUMMARIZE IT
THAT THE LAW'S HOLY, JUST,
00:18:13.96\00:18:19.90
GOOD, AND SPIRITUAL.
00:18:19.90\00:18:20.36
NOTHING WRONG WITH
THE LAW. AND PAUL WANTS TO
00:18:20.36\00:18:28.66
SHOW US THE DEPTHS OF
THE LAW AND THAT'S WHAT HE
00:18:28.66\00:18:29.66
DOES IN VERSE SEVEN.
"AND WHAT SHALL WE SAY THEN,
00:18:29.66\00:18:34.10
THAT THE LAW IS SIN? BY
NO MEANS. YET, IF I'D NOT
00:18:34.10\00:18:38.76
BEEN FOR THE LAW, I'D
HAVE NOT SHOWN WHAT SIN IS. I
00:18:38.76\00:18:39.80
SHOULD HAVE NOT KNOWN
WHAT IT IS TO COVET IF THE LAW
00:18:39.80\00:18:44.53
HAD NOT SAID THOU SHALL
NOT COVET." NOW WHY DO YOU
00:18:44.53\00:18:50.93
THINK HE PICKED OUT
THE TENTH COMMANDMENT HERE
00:18:50.93\00:18:51.93
AS AN ILLUSTRATION OF
THE DEPTH OF THE LAW? >>BILL:
00:18:51.93\00:18:57.00
GOOD QUESTION. >>DR.
00:18:57.00\00:18:57.43
KNIGHT: WELL, I'M
GONNA TELL YOU. BECAUSE WE'RE
00:18:57.43\00:19:00.16
ON TV WE DON'T HAVE A
LOT OF TIME TO DISCUSS THESE
00:19:00.16\00:19:02.90
THINGS SO I'LL JUST TELL
YOU WITHOUT DISCUSSING IT
00:19:02.90\00:19:03.90
EVERY OTHER LAW ON THE.IS
A BEHAVIOUR. EITHER YOU'RE
00:19:03.90\00:19:08.50
WORSHIPPING A FALSE GOD
OR YOU'RE STEALING OR YOU'RE
00:19:08.50\00:19:18.00
BREAKING THE SABBATH OR
YOU'RE MURDERING. IT'S AN
00:19:18.00\00:19:19.03
ACTION. THERE'S NO ACTION
IN COVETNESS. IT'S IN YOUR
00:19:19.03\00:19:25.86
HEAD. YOU'RE JEALOUS OF
YOUR NEIGHBOUR. HE'S GOT
00:19:25.86\00:19:30.06
THIS NICE NEW CAR AND
YOU COVET IT. IT'S IN YOUR
00:19:30.06\00:19:31.10
HEAD WHAT.AND JESUS
TAUGHT THE SAME THING
00:19:31.10\00:19:34.90
IN THE SERMON ON THE
MOUNT >>BILL: YES. >>DR. KNIGHT:
00:19:34.90\00:19:38.36
IT'S NOT THE PERSON THAT
MURDERS SOMEBODY; IT'S THE
00:19:38.36\00:19:39.40
PERSON THAT'S ANGRY.
IT'S IN YOUR HEAD. AND IN
00:19:39.40\00:19:42.86
MATTHEW 15, JESUS SAY
THAT SIN FLOWS OUT OF THE HEART
00:19:42.86\00:19:48.23
AND MIND. IT'S NOT;
IT'S NOT JUST THE OUTWARD
00:19:48.23\00:19:49.20
ACTIONS. SIN IS FORMED
IN YOUR MIND. >>BILL: WOW.
00:19:49.20\00:19:58.80

BRILLIANT. >>DR.
KNIGHT: YEAH. >>BILL: IT IS
00:20:09.43\00:20:10.36
BRILLIANT. >>DR. KNIGHT:
YEAH, I HAD NOT KNOWN WHAT
00:20:10.36\00:20:12.63
SIN WAS. I MEAN, HERE'S
PAUL, HE'S A PHAROSY, HE
00:20:12.63\00:20:14.56
SPENT ALL HIS LIFE
FOOLING AROUND WITH THE
00:20:14.56\00:20:15.50
LAW >>BILL: YEAH. >>DR.
00:20:15.50\00:20:16.63
KNIGHT: ONE THOUSAND
FIVE HUNDRED AND TWENTY
00:20:16.63\00:20:17.60
RULES ON HOW TO KEEP
THE SABBATH. I MEAN, JUST
00:20:17.60\00:20:19.96
LAWS, LAWS, LAWS, LAWS.
HE SAYS, I REALLY DIDN'T KNOW
00:20:19.96\00:20:23.26
WHAT THE LAW MEANT
UNTIL IT SAID, THOU SHALL NOT
00:20:23.26\00:20:24.26
COVET. SUDDENLY I
REALIZED IT'S INTERNAL. IT'S NOT
00:20:24.26\00:20:27.10
JUST BEHAVIOUR.
>>BILL: THAT'S RIGHT. >>DR.
00:20:27.10\00:20:29.96
KNIGHT: IT'S HOW YOU
THINK. IT'S WHAT MAKE
00:20:29.96\00:20:30.90
YOU DO SOMETHING. THE
MOTIVATION OF YOUR LIFE.
00:20:30.90\00:20:33.83
>>BILL: THAT'S RIGHT.
00:20:33.83\00:20:34.30
>>DR. KNIGHT: YEAH,
SALVATION TAKES PLACE
00:20:34.30\00:20:37.90
IN THE HEART. SO THAT'S
ANOTHER. SO CHAPTER SEVEN
00:20:37.90\00:20:42.46
IS A GREAT LAW CHAPTER.
00:20:42.46\00:20:43.00
NOW, LET'S GO UP TO 14
AGAIN. >>BILL: OKAY. >>DR.
00:20:43.00\00:20:49.60
KNIGHT: "WE KNOW THAT
THE LAW IS SPIRITUAL BUT I AM

CARNAL SOLD UNTO SIN".
UH, OH. HERE WE ARE. WE'VE
00:20:50.73\00:20:56.26
GOT A GOOD LAW AND WE'VE
GOT HUMAN BEINGS. AND PAUL
00:20:56.26\00:21:05.13
SAYS, I STRUGGLE. I KNOW
WHAT I SHOULD BE DOING BUT
00:21:05.13\00:21:06.16
SOMETIMES I HAVE A
HARD TIME.>>BILL: DOING WHAT
00:21:06.16\00:21:11.66
I SHOULD BE DOING. RIGHT.
00:21:11.66\00:21:12.16
>>DR. KNIGHT: I DON'T
KNOW IF YOU'VE EVER EXPERIENCED
00:21:12.16\00:21:13.70
THIS PROBLEM OR NOT
>>BILL: OH, YES, SIR.
00:21:13.70\00:21:15.06
>>DR. KNIGHT: I KNOW
PEOPLE ARGUE A LOT ABOUT
00:21:15.06\00:21:16.00
THIS PASSAGE, EXACTLY
WHAT IT MEANS. BUT WE KNOW IT'S
00:21:16.00\00:21:17.76
A CONVERTED PERSON BECAUSE
VERSE 22 SAYS, "I DELIGHT
00:21:17.76\00:21:20.76
IN THE LAW OF GOD".
00:21:20.76\00:21:21.23
THAT'S THE CRY OF THE
CONVERTED PERSON. HOW MANY
00:21:21.23\00:21:27.23
CHRISTIANS WANT TO DO
AWAY WITH THE LAW? WELL,
00:21:27.23\00:21:28.20
PAUL WASN'T ONE OF THEM.
00:21:28.20\00:21:32.76
>>BILL: RIGHT. >>DR.
00:21:32.76\00:21:33.36
KNIGHT: HE SAYS, IT'S
SPIRITUAL, IT'S GOOD, IT'S
00:21:33.36\00:21:36.20
HOLY, I DELIGHT IN IT.
00:21:36.20\00:21:36.70
THE PROBLEM, PAUL
SAYS, IS NOT THE LAW. THE
00:21:36.70\00:21:38.40
PROBLEM.>>BILL: THE
PROBLEM IS ME. >>DR.
00:21:38.40\00:21:39.30
KNIGHT:.IS ME. AND I GO
BACK TO THE ILLUSTRATION
00:21:39.30\00:21:41.96
OF THE ISLAMIC. SAME
OLD GUY. YOU MAY HAVE A NEW
00:21:41.96\00:21:44.16
HEART BUT YOU'VE GOT THE
SAME ROTTEN BODY WITH THAT
00:21:44.16\00:21:45.33
HUNK OF BRAIN THAT
PLAYS SOME BAD TUNES. >>BILL:
00:21:45.33\00:21:48.73
YES. >>DR. KNIGHT: OKAY.
00:21:48.73\00:21:49.20
SO, VERSE 24, PAUL
DEALS WITH A STRUGGLE THAT HE
00:21:49.20\00:21:56.76
GOES THROUGH. WHICH ALL
OF US GO THROUGH. WE KNOW
00:21:56.76\00:22:01.43
WHAT'S RIGHT BUT WE
DON'T ALWAYS DO IT. "RETCHED
00:22:01.43\00:22:02.43
MAN THAT I AM, WHO WILL
DELIVER ME FROM THIS BODY
00:22:02.43\00:22:08.50
OF DEATH? THANKS BE TO
GOD THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR
00:22:08.50\00:22:14.23
LORD. SO THEN IF I
MYSELF SERVE THE LAW OF GOD
00:22:14.23\00:22:15.33
THROUGH MY MIND BUT
WITH MY FLESH I SERVE THE
00:22:15.33\00:22:19.43
LAW OF SIN", HERE'S THAT
TENSION, "WHO WILL DELIVER
00:22:19.43\00:22:30.76
US?" CHAPTER
EIGHT,VERSE ONE, "THERE IS,
00:22:30.76\00:22:31.63
THEREFORE THERE IS NOW
NO CONDEMNATION TO THOSE
00:22:31.63\00:22:33.23
WHO WORK IN CHRIST
JESUS" JESUS. THIS IS THE GOSPEL
00:22:33.23\00:22:41.33
ACCORDING TO PAUL. HE
ALWAYS ENDS UP IN GRACE
00:22:41.33\00:22:42.33
BECAUSE HE KNOWS THAT
GOD KNOWS THAT WE'RE JUST A
00:22:42.33\00:22:47.96
WEE BIT LESS THAN PERFECT
OKAY, NOW, WE DON'T HAVE A
00:22:47.96\00:22:56.73
LOT OF TIME FOR THIS ONE.
00:22:56.73\00:22:57.26
>>BILL: YEAH, WE'VE
GOT ABOUT TWO MINUTES LEFT.
00:22:57.26\00:23:06.20
>>DR. KNIGHT: ABOUT TWO
MINUTES, OH, LET'S GET TO
00:23:06.20\00:23:07.23
THE, LET'S GET TO THE
REAL HEART OF CHAPTER EIGHT.
00:23:07.23\00:23:09.33
BUT HERE IN THIS ONE
WE ARE RESCUED BY THE NEW
00:23:09.33\00:23:11.93
LORD OF OUR LIFE. AND
THAT WE GET DOWN HERE TO THE
00:23:11.93\00:23:13.00
MIDDLE OF VERSES 12 TO
17 AND IT SAYS, "THE SPIRIT
00:23:13.00\00:23:19.20
BEARS WITNESS TO OUR
SPIRIT, THAT WE ARE THE
00:23:19.20\00:23:23.46
SONS AND DAUGHTERS
OF GOD". AND I LOVE THE
00:23:23.46\00:23:24.40
PASSAGE BEGINNING IN
VERSE 31, "WHAT THEN SHALL WE
00:23:24.40\00:23:31.23
SAY TO THIS? IF GOD IF
FOR US, WHO IS AGAINST US. HE
00:23:31.23\00:23:35.13
WHO DID NOT BEAR HIS
OWN SON BUT GAVE HIM UP FOR
00:23:35.13\00:23:36.13
US ALL WILL HE NOT GIVE
US ALSO THINGS WITH HIM. WHO
00:23:36.13\00:23:40.03
SHALL BRING ANY CHARGE
AGAINST GOD'S ELECT. IT'S
00:23:40.03\00:23:44.93
GOD WHO JUSTIFIES", AND
IT GOES ON AND ON AND ON. AND
00:23:44.93\00:23:46.03
THEN THE GREAT CLIMAX
OF THE GOSPEL. "KNOWING ALL
00:23:46.03\00:23:49.70
THESE THINGS", VERSE
37, "IN ALL OF THESE THINGS,
00:23:49.70\00:23:55.50
WE ARE MORE THAN
CONQUERERS THROUGH HIM WHO
00:23:55.50\00:23:56.40
LOVED US. FOR I AM
SURE THAT NEITHER DEATH
00:23:56.40\00:24:01.63
NOR LIFE NOR ANGELS NOR
PRINCIPALITIES NOR THINGS
00:24:01.63\00:24:07.46
PRESENT NOR THINGS TO
COME NOR HEIGHTH NOR DEATH NOR
00:24:07.46\00:24:08.53
ANYTHING ELSE TO COME
TO ALL CREATION WILL BE
00:24:08.53\00:24:12.10
ABLE TO SEPARATE US FROM
THE LOVE OF GOD IN CHRIST
00:24:12.10\00:24:15.93
JESUS OUR LORD".
BROTHER, HANG ON. NOTHING CAN
00:24:15.93\00:24:16.90
SEPARATE US FROM THE
LOVE OF GOD EXCEPT OUR CHOICE.
00:24:16.90\00:24:22.53
IT'S BY FAITH THAT WE
GRAB A HOLD OF THE GOSPEL. IT'S
00:24:22.53\00:24:29.90
BY REJECTING OUR WALK
WITH GOD THAT WE SEPARATE
00:24:29.90\00:24:31.03
OURSELVES FROM GOD. WE
CAN SEPARATE OURSELVES BUT
00:24:31.03\00:24:36.40
NOTHING ON THE
OUTSIDE CAN. THAT'S CHRISTIAN
00:24:36.40\00:24:39.70
ASSURANCE THAT IS HIGH
POINT. >>BILL: THANK YOU,
00:24:39.70\00:24:40.70
DR. KNIGHT. LET US PRAY.
00:24:40.70\00:24:44.53
HEAVENLY FATHER, WE
THANK YOU FOR THE ASSURANCE
00:24:44.53\00:24:45.53
OF SCRIPTURE THAT SAYS
NOTHING CAN SEPARATE US.
00:24:45.53\00:24:50.00
THAT YOU HAVE SENT YOUR
SON, JESUS CHRIST, TO DIE
00:24:50.00\00:24:54.53
ON THE CROSS TO REDEEM
A LOST HUMANITY. FATHER,
00:24:54.53\00:24:55.50
MAY THOSE WHO HAVE
NOT YET CLAIMED THE GIFT
00:24:55.50\00:25:00.16
OF ETERNAL LIFE IN JESUS
CHRIST MAY THEY REACH OUT
00:25:00.16\00:25:04.16
AND CLAIM THAT NOW.
00:25:04.16\00:25:04.63
I PRAY IN HIS NAME NOW,
AMEN >>DR. KNIGHT: AMEN.
