Romans 7:7 and onwards

Today I started with the 4 times in the Romans chapters 6 & 7 of the 4 types of things that God ABSOLUTELY FORBIDS. Message notes look a bit like this:

Romans 6:1-2 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? = God does not recognize anyone who lives a life of sin because they think that their salvation gives them overwhelming grace.

Romans 6:15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law but under grace? God forbid. = Should we just go on doing what we know that Jesus didn't do because we are in the identity of Jesus? NO because if you are in the idea of doing what you want to do, YOU ARE NOT IN THE IDENTITY OF JESUS.

Romans 7:7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet. = Is the law which was set apart by God for the Levitical priesthood to be the code of ethics for the Children of Israel -- should this law be equated to the sin nature since it only seems to highlight the sin nature? GOD FORBIDS THIS TYPE OF THINKING and this type of thinking will not lead into eternal dwelling with God in Heaven.

Romans 7:13 Was then that which is made good death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceedingly sinful. = Does that mean that the law which is set to make me pure but it will only highlight the sin in me. Was it a good thing that the law was in existence for the purpose of killing me? GOD FORBIDS IT because the law was sent to show the NEED FOR JESUS CHRIST as the perfect sacrifice. It also was sent to show how WE ARE NOT JESUS CHRIST AND CANNOT BE HELD TO THE SAME RESPONSE ABLITY AS HIM.

3 step process for being a disciple of Christ:

1. Repent.

2. Pick up your cross

3. Follow Jesus.

Adrian Rogers had a saying that whenever he was preaching a message to nobody in particular, sometimes a man or woman would come up to him afterwards and say, "It seemed as if you were looking at me the whole time and telling me why my actions were so sinful."

Adrian would reply, "I was simply shooting down a random hole in the ground. If you were in the way of where I was shooting, I certainly didn't see you in the hole. Question isn't why you were hit. The question is, 'why were you in the hole?'
Any design of sex or life outside of what God has put together is not sex for the design of life. It is sex for the design of death.

Any design of sex or life outside of what God has put together is not life for the design of life. It is life for the design of death.

Pleasure is a gift from God. It is not a right or idol. Idolatry in sex comes about when pornography makes pleasure a right. The right is from God, but it can only be a right from God when it is used in the design of God. Also, when the person is viewing pornography and actions of sex happen outside of the boundary of marriage, it goes to an altar. Any time that the seed of man does not go into the womb of a woman for the purpose of procreation, it is feeding an altar that specifically wars AGAINST THE PRESENTATION OF GOD'S ORDER.

So, premarital sex is not just the design of death, but it is satan's best chance at creating a bastard.
In the beginnings of Israel, any person who had bastard status was forbidden to be a part of Israel for 10 generations. THIS IS NOT A LAW THAT WAS UNDONE BY THE CROSS.

SO if there was premarital sex in the generations before you were born, the accuser has LEGAL RIGHT to accuse you of not being a true part of the Body of Christ. Because it is written in the Word of God... the accuser and the KOD has legal permission to try to tempt the next 10 generations to do the same thing. Why? So that he can continually LEGALLY accuse each of the 10 generations of not being a legal part of the Body of Christ by simply having sex outside of marriage.
