The Inseparable Love of God (1) [Romans 8:38-39]

The Inseparable Love of God (1) [ Romans 8:38-39 ] Why can nothing separate us from the love of God? 1. Because God’s love is eternal. Romans 8:29a says: “For those whom He foreknew…” The word “foreknew” refers to before eternity began —before the creation of heaven and earth . The phrase “those whom He foreknew” does not simply mean knowing about someone intellectually, but rather loving them. In other words, it refers to “those whom God loved from eternity past.” Amos 3:2a says: “You only have I known of all the families of the earth.” If “known” merely meant intellectual knowledge, that would imply that God only knew Israel and did not know the other nations—which cannot be true, because the all-knowing God lacks knowledge of nothing. Therefore, “I have known you only” means “I have loved you only.” God loved Israel among all the nations of the earth. Hosea 13:5 says: “I knew you in the wilderness , in the land of great drought.” The “wilderness” was where the Israelite...

‘As through one transgression there resulted condemnation to all men’ (Romans 5:12-21)

  ‘As through one transgression there resulted condemnation to all men’       [Romans 5:12-21]                           Romans 5:12-19 speaks of the same and different aspects of Adam and Jesus Christ: Verses 12-14 are the same aspects of Adam and Jesus Christ, verses 15-17 are the different aspects of Adam and Jesus Christ, and verses 18-19 are the same and the different aspects of Adam and Jesus Christ.  Romans 5:18-19: “So then as through one transgression there resulted condemnation to all men, even so through one act of righteousness there resulted justification of life to all men.  For as through the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the One the many will be made righteous.”   Here, the conjunction “So then” (v. 18) concludes Romans 5:12-17 comprehensively.      ...

‘Before the law was given, sin was in the world' (Romans 5:12-21)

‘Before the law was given, sin was in the world'     [Romans 5:12-21]                        Look at Romans 5:13-14: “for before the law was given, sin was in the world. But sin is not taken into account when there is no law.   Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, even over those who did not sin by breaking a command, as did Adam, who was a pattern of the one to come.”   The Bible says that sin was in the world before the law (v. 13).   The word “before the law” here refers to the law that God gave to Moses at Mount Sinai when the Israelites came out of Egypt and came to Mount Sinai (Exod. 20:1-17; Note: Deut.5: 6-21).   Then, “before the law” refers to when and when, from the time when Adam sinned (Gen. 3) until Moses received the law from God at Mount Sinai (Exod. 20) (about 2,500 years).   Even then, there was a ...

‘Through one man’ (Romans 5:12-21)

‘Through one man’     [Romans 5:12-21]                        Look at Romans 5:12 – “Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned.”   Here, the Bible says “through one man”, and in Romans 5:12-21, the word “one man” appears 12 times in the original Greek (10 times in Korean).   Who does “one man” refer to here?   When the Apostle Paul said “one man,” he was referring to two different people.   Look at Romans 5:15, 17: “But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God's grace and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, overflow to the many!   …   For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God's abund...

Adam and Christ, the Last Adam

Adam and Christ, the Last Adam   "... as Adam by his disobedience has brought  sin with all its consequences into the originally good creation for himself and all those  'in him,'  so Christ by his obedience has brought  salvation from sin and all its consequences  for those 'in him.'"   (Richard B. Gaffin Jr., "NO ADAM, NO GOSPEL")
