AND CAN IT BE THAT I SHOULD GAIN?

Personal Reflection And Meditation

No condemnation now I dread;
Jesus, and all in Him, is mine;
Alive in Him, my living Head,
And clothed in righteousness divine,
Bold I approach th'eternal throne,
And claim the crown, through Christ my own.

Scripture memorization (read, write and repeat):
Romans 8:1-2 Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death.

Bible Study
In Romans 8:1-2 what does Paul mean, there is "no condemnation" for those who are in Christ?

.

Read Romans 8:10-11 and answer the following questions:

What is the "law of the Spirit of life"?

.

How are we made alive in Christ?

.

Read Isaiah 61:10, Zechariah 3:1-5. What does it mean to be "clothed in a robe of righteousness"?

.

Read Hebrews 10:19-22. Christ has made a way for us to draw near to God into the Most Holy Place, a privilege only the High Priest in the OT had and that only 1 time annually. What does this mean to believers practically speaking? How do we draw near to God?

.

Read Revelation 2:10, 2 Timothy 4:8. In addition to the reward of eternal life, what other reward are we assured of? Do you think this will be an actual crown? Why/why not?

.
