VIII. MAIN BODY:

Genesis 27:32 (Amplified Bible)

And Isaac his father said to him, Who are you? And he replied, I am your son, your firstborn, Esau.

Genesis 27:32 (King James Version)

And Isaac his father said unto him, Who art thou? And he said, I am thy son, thy firstborn Esau.

Definitely an S.M. (Secret Message) from the LORD.

A. GOD's Grace - the LORD JESUS CHRIST will not recognize you

"And Isaac his father said to him, Who are you?"

Isaac or "yitschaq" in Hebrew meaning: laughter, mockery.

Esau or "esav" in Hebrew meaning: handling, rough, felt.

Isaac symbolizes GOD's Grace or the LORD JESUS CHRIST and Esau symbolizes "keepers of the Law" - those who seek to gain salvation by keeping the ten commandments.

Doers of the Law, Law Keepers are those who people who seek to be right with GOD by being good, doing the ten commandments, doing rituals and sacrifices but does not want relationship with GOD, only wants religion (external/outward appearances) but his heart is not right with GOD.

Galatians 5:4 (Amplified Bible)

If you seek to be justified and declared righteous and to be given a right standing with God through the Law, you are brought to nothing and so separated (severed) from Christ. You have fallen away from grace (from God’s gracious favor and unmerited blessing).

Romans 3:20 (Amplified Bible)

For no person will be justified (made righteous, acquitted, and judged acceptable) in His sight by observing the works prescribed by the Law. For [the real function of] the Law is to make men recognize and be conscious of sin [not mere perception, but an acquaintance with sin which works toward repentance, faith, and holy character].

Romans 4:4-5 (Amplified Bible)

Now to a laborer, his wages are not counted as a favor or a gift, but as an obligation (something owed to him).

But to one who, not working [by the Law], trusts (believes fully) in Him Who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited to him as righteousness (the standing acceptable to God).

Because the WAY to GOD has been clearly revealed it's CHRIST, not the Law. CHRIST fulfilled all the ten commandments perfectly, therefore He's doing it right now, even as we speak, through and inside of us.

Romans 10:4 (Amplified Bible)

For Christ is the end of the Law [the limit at which it ceases to be, for the Law leads up to Him Who is the fulfillment of its types, and in Him the purpose which it was designed to accomplish is fulfilled. That is, the purpose of the Law is fulfilled in Him] as the means of righteousness (right relationship to God) for everyone who trusts in and adheres to and relies on Him.

Galatians 2:16 (Amplified Bible)

Yet we know that a man is justified or reckoned righteous and in right standing with God not by works of the Law, but [only] through faith and [absolute] reliance on and adherence to and trust in Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One). [Therefore] even we [ourselves] have believed on Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the Law [for we cannot be justified by any observance of the ritual of the Law given by Moses], because by keeping legal rituals and by works no human being can ever be justified (declared righteous and put in right standing with God).

Galatians 2:21 (Amplified Bible)

[Therefore, I do not treat God’s gracious gift as something of minor importance and defeat its very purpose]; I do not set aside and invalidate and frustrate and nullify the grace (unmerited favor) of God. For if justification (righteousness, acquittal from guilt) comes through [observing the ritual of] the Law, then Christ (the Messiah) died groundlessly and to no purpose and in vain. [His death was then wholly superfluous.]

Some people that are not recognized in the bible:

1. Esau - Genesis 27:32

2. Hivites that deceived Joshua

Joshua 9:8 (Amplified Bible)

They said to Joshua, We are your servants. And Joshua said to them, Who are you? From where have you come?

3. Abner conceited that he can defeat King David

1 Samuel 26:14 (Amplified Bible)

David called to the army and Abner son of Ner, Will you answer, Abner? Abner replied, Who are you, calling [and disturbing] the king?

4. Ruth - because she tried to claim GOD's Promise by grace through faith

Ruth 3:9 (Amplified Bible)

And he said, Who are you? And she answered, I am Ruth your maidservant. Spread your wing [of protection] over your maidservant, for you are a next of kin.

5. An Amalekite - because Amalekites are to be destroyed as an offering to GOD

2 Samuel 1:8 (Amplified Bible)

He asked me, Who are you? I answered, An Amalekite.

6. The LORD JESUS CHRIST - because Saul tried to gain salvation through the works of the Law

Acts 26:15 (Amplified Bible)

And I said, Who are You, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus, Whom you are persecuting.

Acts 22:8 (Amplified Bible)

And I replied, Who are You, Lord? And He said to me, I am Jesus the Nazarene, Whom you are persecuting.

Acts 9:5 (Amplified Bible)

And Saul said, Who are You, Lord? And He said, I am Jesus, Whom you are persecuting. It is dangerous and it will turn out badly for you to keep kicking against the goad [to offer vain and perilous resistance].

7. John, the Baptist - because the Law were introducing Grace to the people

John 1:22 (Amplified Bible)

Then they said to him, Who are you? Tell us, so that we may give an answer to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?

2 Corinthians 3:6-8 (Amplified Bible)

[It is He] Who has qualified us [making us to be fit and worthy and sufficient] as ministers and dispensers of a new covenant [of salvation through Christ], not [ministers] of the letter (of legally written code) but of the Spirit; for the code [of the Law] kills, but the [Holy] Spirit makes alive.

Now if the dispensation of death engraved in letters on stone [the ministration of the Law], was inaugurated with such glory and splendor that the Israelites were not able to look steadily at the face of Moses because of its brilliance, [a glory] that was to fade and pass away,

Why should not the dispensation of the Spirit [this spiritual ministry whose task it is to cause men to obtain and be governed by the Holy Spirit] be attended with much greater and more splendid glory?

ILLUSTRATION/EXAMPLE:

That the LORD when we come into heaven, He will recognize us and will not disown us.

Matthew 7:22-23 (Amplified Bible)

Many will say to Me on that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name and driven out demons in Your name and done many mighty works in Your name?

And then I will say to them openly (publicly), I never knew you; depart from Me, you who act wickedly [disregarding My commands].

Galatians 3:10 (Amplified Bible)

And all who depend on the Law [who are seeking to be justified by obedience to the Law of rituals] are under a curse and doomed to disappointment and destruction, for it is written in the Scriptures, Cursed (accursed, devoted to destruction, doomed to eternal punishment) be everyone who does not continue to abide (live and remain) by all the precepts and commands written in the Book of the Law and to practice them.

We can only please GOD by faith not by works of the Law, not trying to be good and righteous but by faith, He has already made us righteous and in right standing/relationship with GOD.

Hebrews 11:6 (Amplified Bible)

But without faith it is impossible to please and be satisfactory to Him. For whoever would come near to God must [necessarily] believe that God exists and that He is the rewarder of those who earnestly and diligently seek Him [out].

2 Corinthians 5:21 (Amplified Bible)

For our sake He made Christ [virtually] to be sin Who knew no sin, so that in and through Him we might become [endued with, viewed as being in, and examples of] the righteousness of God [what we ought to be, approved and acceptable and in right relationship with Him, by His goodness].

B. The Law will say he is the firstborn

"And he replied, I am your son, your firstborn, Esau."

Isaac symbolizing GOD's Grace, even when the Law (symbolized by Esau) introduced itself to it, will never be recognized. Salvation is a gift from GOD, something that you can't work for and something that we are not deserving.

Romans 6:23 (Amplified Bible)

For the wages which sin pays is death, but the [bountiful] free gift of God is eternal life through (in union with) Jesus Christ our Lord.

Ephesians 2:8-9 (Amplified Bible)

For it is by free grace (God’s unmerited favor) that you are saved (delivered from judgment and made partakers of Christ’s salvation) through [your] faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [of your own doing, it came not through your own striving], but it is the gift of God;

Not because of works [not the fulfillment of the Law’s demands], lest any man should boast. [It is not the result of what anyone can possibly do, so no one can pride himself in it or take glory to himself.]

The Law can never make anyone righteous and it can't save anyone. Being good in this lifetime can't save you, being good that you have a religion can't save you, it will only come through the acceptance of the LORD JESUS CHRIST as LORD, MASTER and SAVIOR.

John 14:6 (Amplified Bible)

Jesus said to him, I am the Way and the Truth and the Life; no one comes to the Father except by (through) Me.

Acts 4:12 (Amplified Bible)

And there is salvation in and through no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by and in which we must be saved.

Isaiah 64:6 (Amplified Bible)

For we have all become like one who is unclean [ceremonially, like a leper], and all our righteousness (our best deeds of rightness and justice) is like filthy rags or a polluted garment; we all fade like a leaf, and our iniquities, like the wind, take us away [far from God’s favor, hurrying us toward destruction].

ILLUSTRATION/EXAMPLE:

When the GOD of Grace, the LORD JESUS CHRIST was hanged on the cross, the keepers and promoters of the Law "mocked" (Remember Isaac's name) mocked JESUS.

Mark 15:31 (Amplified Bible)

So also the chief priests, with the scribes, made sport of Him to one another, saying, He rescued others [from death]; Himself He is unable to rescue.

Mark 15:31 (New Century Version)

The leading priests and the teachers of the law were also making fun of Jesus. They said to each other, “He saved other people, but he can’t save himself.

Mark 15:31 (New International Version)

In the same way the chief priests and the teachers of the law mocked him among themselves. "He saved others," they said, "but he can't save himself!

IX. CONCLUSION:

When you keep the Law or fulfills the Law to gain salvation, GOD's Grace - the LORD JESUS CHRIST does not know you.

Hebrews 7:19 (Amplified Bible)

For the Law never made anything perfect—but instead a better hope is introduced through which we [now] come close to God.

James 1:25 (Amplified Bible)

But he who looks carefully into the faultless law, the [law] of liberty, and is faithful to it and perseveres in looking into it, being not a heedless listener who forgets but an active doer [who obeys], he shall be blessed in his doing (his life of obedience).

Praise, worship and thank You very much LORD JESUS for You perfected us to be like You in this world.
