2024 TEENS VOLUME RHAPSODY OF REALITIES – MESSAGE.
The righteousness of Jesus Christ gave us eternal life. We weren’t able to please God by ourselves, but Jesus did so on our behalf. Adam, the first man, disobeyed God and committed high treason against Him. But Jesus Christ, the second and last Adam, fulfilled God’s will and on account of His obedience, we’ve been made righteous: “Therefore, as through one man’s offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man’s righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in justification of life. For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous” (Romans 5:18-19).
Consider again the construction in our opening verse: “In the way of righteousness is life, and in its pathway there is no death.” In the path of righteousness, death has no place; it’s a “death-free pathway.” The Bible says in Romans 8:2, “For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.” The Greek construction here isn’t referring to being delivered from sin as if you were trapped in it, or being rescued or delivered from death as if you were in its clutches. Rather, it’s saying that in Christ Jesus, you’re death-free; there’s no death in you.
The human body is referred to as the “body of death” (that is, a “death-doomed body”) in Romans 7:24. From the moment a person is born, he carries death within him. This is because the natural man inherited the curse of death. So, Apostle Paul says, “Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?” (Romans 7:24 RSV). The very next verse says, “Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord…” (Romans 7:25 RSV). Jesus provided the solution; the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made us death-free. Praise God!
