THE BIBLES TESTIMONY Joha 5:45-4- 7 By Pastor Keith E. South First Baptist Church ' The Pharisees were a group that pruled themselves oi) knowing much when it came to the Scriptures. Yet they failed to recognize the One whom Moses spoke and wrote about. They were guilty of not only rejecting Christ's Words (He is the very Word of God John I I, 14), but Urey rejected the words of Scripture which Urey claimed to be living by. There are some today that teach the Old Testament did not speak of Christ, that the taw taught salvation by works, and that the lews were saved through obedience to the law. Some teach that the God of the 0 T. is Afferent from the God of the New. They say the God of the old dispensation was riean and wrathful, the God of the new is gentle and roercifuL God, however, is the same yesterday, today, and forever Heh IS S. The old dispensation never taught salvation by works. Salvation has always been by grace through faith and faith alone. This is exactly Jesus point in John S 46. There are four basic lines that run through the O T. which lead to the coming Messiah historical, typological, psychological. and prophetical. First, the entire history of the COPY nation of Israel basically teaches that the forces of darkness continually work against Gods people, and therefore only God can save them. Second, the ceremonial law, the sacrificial and other systems, and signs all pointed to man need for atonement and to the Iscoming Redeemer. Third, over and over again the raelites broke Gods covenant with them. People like Moses. David, and Job all realized their helplessness to save themselves and looked forward to the Redeemer' coming. Finally, the prophetic writings are filled w ith truths concerning the coming of Christ that He would be bom in Bethlehem, the He would speak the truth, and Ural He would perform miracles are bid a few. Due to all of these testimonies within the Scnp-tnre- s, the Pharisees had no excuse to reject Christ People today also are without excuse. Even those who have never read the Bible stand condemned because the law has been wntten on their hearts ( Rom. 2. 14 -ID, and yet Urey still refuse to worship God. The Bible says that we are all under the condemnation of God Only those w ho have accepted Jesus and Jesus alone by faith and faith alone are no longer conI. demned Rom i nofe?
