They Do Not Believe In the Old Testament 2. We are Saved by Grace 3. In Music

1. Do we believe in the Old Testament ? O.T. is Inspired 2 Pet. 1:20-21 “...men spake from God, being moved by the Holy Spirit.” “God spoke” or “Thus saith the Lord” times

O.T. is Profitable Rom.15:4 “written for our learning” Instruction [the function of information] 1 Cor. 10:11 “Now these things happened to them by way of example, and they were written for our admonition” 1. Do we believe in the Old Testament ?

O.T. is Not in Force Today Col. 2:14 = “took it out of the way” Heb. 8:6-11 = “a new covenant” Matt. 5:17 = “come to fulfill” 1. Do we believe in the Old Testament ?

Religious Worlds View of O.T.  “We take it all, both O.T. & N.T.”  Animal Sacrifices, Sabbath, Feast Days Go to the O.T. for what they want or like 1. Do we believe in the Old Testament ?

Cannot live by O.T. & N.T.  If you go back to the law for one thing, then you must do it for all.  Gal. 5: Do we believe in the Old Testament ?

“Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage. Indeed I, Paul, say to you that if you become circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing. And I testify again to every man who becomes circumcised that he is a debtor to keep the whole law. Christ is become of no effect to you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; you have fallen from grace.” Gal. 5:1-4

Not Under Nor Practice Law Today “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Tim. 2:15 “handling aright the word of truth.” ASV 1. Do we believe in the Old Testament ?

 Grace = unmerited favor  God saved us from sin when we did not deserve it. “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”Rom. 5:8 “not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us”Tit. 3:5 2. Do we believe we are saved by Grace?

Grace does not exclude conditions  Noah - Gen.6:8 found grace in the eyes of God - built the ark  Ruth - Ruth 2:2-3 - gleaned in the fields of Boaz 2. Do we believe we are saved by Grace?
