Sine ratione dubitationis
Language
8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works so that no one can boast.
What is the difference between living under the law and living under grace?
The curse of the Law says, “The wages of sin is death”; Grace says, “The gift of God is eternal life.” The curse of the Law says, “The soul that sinneth it shall die”; Grace says, “Believe and live.” The curse of the Law was done away in Christ; Grace abides forever. The curse of the Law puts us under bondage; Grace sets us in the liberty of the sons of God (Rom 12:1).
Christ nailed the curse of the Law to a tree not God's laws. We are required to keep God's instructions. 21 Steps of Salvation
Those who obey God’s commandments remain in fellowship with him, and he with them. And we know he lives in us because the Spirit he gave us lives in us.
Dead to Sin, Alive in Christ
6 What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? 2 By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer? 3 Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? 4 We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.
5 For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his. 6 For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body ruled by sin might be done away with,[a] that we should no longer be slaves to sin— 7 because anyone who has died has been set free from sin.
8 Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him. 9 For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him. 10 The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God.
11 In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. 12 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires. 13 Do not offer any part of yourself to sin as an instrument of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer every part of yourself to him as an instrument of righteousness. 14 For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace.
Slaves to Righteousness
15 What then? Shall we sin because we are not under the law but under grace? By no means! 16 Don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one you obey—whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness? 17 But thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves to sin, you have come to obey from your heart the pattern of teaching that has now claimed your allegiance. 18 You have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness.
19 I am using an example from everyday life because of your human limitations. Just as you used to offer yourselves as slaves to impurity and to ever-increasing wickedness, so now offer yourselves as slaves to righteousness leading to holiness. 20 When you were slaves to sin, you were free from the control of righteousness. 21 What benefit did you reap at that time from the things you are now ashamed of? Those things result in death! 22 But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life. 23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in[b] Christ Jesus our Lord.
Faith and Deeds
14 What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? 15 Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? 17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.
18 But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.”
Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds. 19 You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder.
20 You foolish person, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless
Faith is the connecting power into the spiritual realm, which links us with God and makes Him become a tangible reality to the sense perceptions of a person. Faith is the basic ingredient to begin a relationship with God.
Haec est gratia
Aliqui Christiani suadeant gratiam Dei habere significat nos liberos esse in peccato mansuros, et nos de ea non iudicabimur. Et non solum in Novo Testamento invenitur, sed quid facit?
Novum Testamentum dicunt?" Audisti unquam dicentem quod Vetus Testamentum sub lege erat, sed post crucem, sub gratia sumus? Quid istuc est?
Quid est gratia? Quid sit tibi gratia cogita. Nunc aliquas Scripturas Novi Testamenti perscrutemur.
Vivere per Spiritum
Caro enim concupiscit id quod est contra spiritum, spiritus autem quod est contra carnem. Opponuntur inter se, ne facias quod vis. 18 Quod si Spiritu ducimini, non estis sub lege.
Acts 5:1-10 Vir autem nomine Ananias cum uxore sua Saphira vendidit agrum, et cognovit uxorem suam, et retinuit aliquid de eo, et attulit tantum. partemque eius ad pedes apostolorum posuit. Petrus autem dixit Ananias quare implevit Satanas cor tuum mentiri Spiritui Sancto et subtrahere tibi partem de proventibus terrae Nonne tua manebat dum manebat? Nonne manens tibi manebat et venumdatum in arbitrio tuo erat? quare posuisti in corde tuo hanc rem? Non es mentitus homini sed Deo. Audiens autem Ananias haec verba cecidit et exspiravit; Et factus est timor magnus super omnes qui audierunt. Surgentes autem iuvenes involverunt eum et efferentes sepelierunt. Factum est autem quasi horarum trium spatium, et uxor ipsius nesciens, quod factum fuerat, introivit. Dixit autem ei Petrus : Dic mihi si tanti agrum vendidistis. At illa dixit: Etiam tanti. Petrus autem ad eam: “ Quid est quod convenit vobis tentare Spiritum Domini? Ecce pedes eorum qui sepelierunt virum tuum ad ostium, et efferent te. Confestim cecidit ante pedes ejus, et expiravit. Intrantes autem juvenes invenerunt illam mortuam: et extulerunt, et sepelierunt ad virum suum.
Wow! Ananias et Saphira mentiti sunt ecclesiae de pecunia ex rebus suis venditis. Tunc Petrus dixit quod non homini sed Spiritui Sancto mentiti sunt, et tunc percussi sunt mortui. Itane? Percussit mortuus??? Estne gratia?
5.9 Nolite ingemiscere, fratres, in alterutrum, ut non judicemini. ecce judex ante januam assistit. « Nolite ingemiscere in invicem, an non iudicabimini? Estne ille sonus similis gratiae? Oportet, causa id quod sub ... iure sumus?
Galatians 1:9 9 Sicut prædiximus, et nunc iterum dico: Si quis vobis prædicat Evangelium, quod accepistis, anathema sit. Maledicta gratia? Hebrews 10:26-31 Si enim peccantes ex industria susceptam veritatem, jam non permanet sacrificium pro peccatis, sed formidolosa exspectatio judicii, et furor ignis consumens adversarios. Omnis, qui separavit legem Moysi, sine ulla miseratione duobus vel tribus testibus moritur. Quanto graviorem poenam, ab eo qui Filium Dei conculcaverit, et sanguinem testamenti, quo sanctificatus est, polluerit, et gratiae Spiritum violaverit? Scimus enim qui dixit: Mea est ultio; reddam." Et iterum: Dominus iudicabit populum suum. Horrendum est incidere in manus Dei viventis. Wow. Fideles, qui consulto inobedientes sunt, cum Dei adversariis consumi erunt? Estne tibi sonus ille similis gratia? Oportet, quia id quod sumus sub. Quid est ergo gratia? Id magna quaestio est. Melius fortasse quaeritur quid est gratia? Gratia non est licentia peccandi, nec licentia peccandi.
Romans 6:1-2 Quid ergo dicemus? permanebimus in peccato ut gratia abundet?
minime! Qui ergo mortui sumus peccato, adhuc vivere possumus? I Cor. Et superbus es! Non magis debes lugere? Qui hoc fecit, tollatur a vobis. Absens enim corpore, spiritu praesens sum; et quasi praesens, iam de eo qui tale quid egit iudicium. Congregamini autem in nomine Domini Iesu, et spiritus meus praesens in virtute Domini nostri Iesu Christi, tradetis eum Satanae in interitum carnis; ut sit spiritus eius in die Domini. Wow. Emovetur e medio eorum Satanae. Estne tibi sonus ille similis gratia? Sciendum est, quia id quod erant sub iure?
Psalmus 103 Psalmus David.
1 Alleluja. In toto corde meo confitebor nomini sancto eius. 2 Omnia quæ ego laudo Dominum; numquam obliviscar bona quae mihi facit. 3 Ipse omnia peccata mea dimittit et omnes infirmitates meas sanat. 4 Redemit me a morte et coronat me misericordia et misericordia. 5 animam meam implevit bonis. Renovatur iuventus mea sicut aquilae! Yehovah dat iustitiam et iustitiam omnibus qui inique agunt. 7 mores suos Moysi et opera sua populo Israel revelavit. 8 Miserator et misericors Dominus, longanimis et multum misericors.
9 Non nos constanter accusabit, neque nos, ut meremur, aspere, ut meremur.
11 quoniam tanta est altitudo caelorum super terram: longe fecit a nobis peccata nostra, sicut oriens ab occidente. Misericors et miserator timentibus se. 14 Ipse enim novit quam infirmi sumus. sicut flos florum, floremus et interimus. Ventus spirat, et nos abiimus, quasi nunquam hic essemus.
17 { Dilectio autem Domini manet in æternum cum timentibus eum. Salus eius usque ad filios filiorum 18 eorum qui in testamento eius fideles sunt, eorum qui mandatis eius obsequuntur!
Romans 2:13 Non enim auditores legis iusti sunt apud Dominum, sed factores legis iustificabuntur.
1 John 3:4 Qui dicit se nosse eum, et mandata ejus non custodit, mendax est, et in hoc veritas non est.
Ecclesiastes 12:14 Finem loquendi pariter omnes audiamus. Deum time, et mandata ejus observa: hoc est enim omnis homo,
1 John 3:4 Omnis qui facit peccatum, et iniquitatem facit. Peccatum enim est iniquitas. Psalm 19: 7 Impleat Dominus omnes petitiones tuas;
Testimonium Domini fidele, sapientiam praestans parvulis
Psalms 19:8 8 Justus est Dominus, quia os ejus ad iracundiam provocavi. Mandatum Domini lucidum, illuminans oculos. Proverbs 10:8 8 Præcepta Domini recta, lætificantes cor; Mandatum Domini lucidum, illuminans oculos. 1 Timothy 1:8 8 Scimus autem quoniam bona est lex si quis ea legitime utatur:
1 Beati quorum viæ sine querela, qui ambulant secundum legem Domini Ezekiel 36:26-27 Dabo vobis cor novum, et spiritum novum ponam in vobis: Auferam a te cor lapideum, et cor carneum dabo tibi. Et spiritum meum ponam in te et movebo te, ut sequaris mandata mea et custodies leges meas custodiens.
Jeremiah 31:33 Sed hoc erit pactum, quod feriam cum domo Israël post dies illos, dicit Dominus: Dabo legem meam in mente eorum, et in cordibus eorum inscribam eam. et ero eis Deus, et ipsi erunt mihi populus.
Si saltare cum Diabolo, domum non eris ad habitandum cum Deo.
