     | 4,585 views

    Jesus builds a shield around the law or Commandments in order to create more space and distance so that we won’t even bump up against the fence or sit on the fence, but rather keep a healthy distance.

The scene was set, both Jesus and Satan began calling to the people in the group and, one by one - each having made up ...read more

    Paul answers the question that he gives to the Jews, “Are we better than they?” referring to the Gentiles. His answer is in no wise are we better. Paul calls attention to again that each individual is that “they are all under sin,” regardless of whether Jewish or Gentile.

    Romans 3:9-23 contains a series of statements from the Old Testament Scriptures. Paul utilizes these to show that the Jews and Greeks are similar under transgression. Subsequent to setting up that “there is none that doeth good” from Psalm 14:1, Paul utilizes statements from Psalms and Isaiah to ...read more
