Is Your Name Recorded in the Book, or in the Books?
If people refuse to come under the new covenant and accept Jesus Christ and His teachings and chose to stay under the old covenant of death, then Paul said you will be judged by the it.
All are concluded guilty under the old covenant and are under a curse.
Jesus fulfilled that law, being made a curse for us that the blessings of Abraham would come upon us.
This covenant is the ancient path for this covenant that God made with Abraham was 430 years before the law of Moses.
Is your name recorded in the book of Life of the Lamb slain before the foundations of the world, or will you be found in that day with your names in the books?
Will you be found guilty before God, or will you be found faultless before Him?
Are your robes washed white in the Blood of the Lamb, or are you still clothed in the filthy garments of your own self righteousness?
What can wash away our sin? NOTHING BUT THE BLOOD OF JESUS!
For we are saved by grace through faith not of works lest any man should boast.
“For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith,” Romans 1:7.
“And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the BOOKS were opened: and another BOOK was opened, which is the Book of Life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works,” Revelation 20:12.
“O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you? This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh? Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain.
He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.
Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham. For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith. And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them. Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man’s covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.
Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.
And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect. For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.
Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one. Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law. But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise,” Galatians 3:1-29.
