When others demand that we become the people they want us to be, they force us to destroy the person we really are. It's a subtle kind of murder ... the most loving parents and relatives commit this murder with smiles on their faces.

021. Subtle Murder | I Am A Hero Maker

Have you ever been confused by a Bible teaching that seemed contrary to something else in the Bible? Have you ever read a scripture that seemed to contradict another scripture? We understand the Bible to be a great tool for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness (2 Timothy3:16). But he also said that we need to “correctly teach the message of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15). We divide the word whenever we emphasize one scripture over another. So how do we divide the word rightly? In essence there are two questions we should ask when reading any scripture in the Bible: 1. What does this passage mean in light of the finished work of the cross? 2. Who is the writer writing to or about? #iamaheromaker #upriseyourlife #gospel #bible #howto --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/upriseyourlife/support

019. Life Is Not A Competition | I Am A Hero Maker

The first and most important of the New Covenant blessings is the complete and total forgiveness of sin. Other blessings include the gift of Christ’s righteousness, holiness, indeed, His very life! All of these blessings testify to God’s Grace, which is one of six ways the new covenant can be distinguished from the old. GOSPEL CIRCLE 002 3 1. ItisaCovenantofGrace In the old law-based covenant you reaped what you sow, but in the new we reap what Christ has sown. In the old you did in order to get, but in the new we get because Christ has done it ALL. This is grace! And grace declares that all is a gift. Every spiritual blessing is ours in Jesus Christ (Ephesians 1:3). 2. It is a Covenant of Rest Under the Old it was do, do, do, but in the New it’s done, done ,done. Faith is a rest, not a work. Is our right not our duty. Only when we rest in the finished work of Calvary can God begin His good work in us. And as His grace abounds, good works abound (2 Corinthians 9:8). Good works don’t produce faith — it never has it never will — but faith produces good works. 3. It’s a Covenant of New Life Old covenant preaching will make you stupid and harden your heart to the goodness of God (2 Corinthians 3:14). But New Covenant preaching removes the veil and reveals the Glory of God. As you behold him you become like him, transformed by the Holy Spirit (2 Corinthians 3:18). Under the old, the best you could hope for was self-improvement that never lasts. But in the new, you become new (2 Corinthians 5:17) — a brand new person with a new heart and a new spirit. You are born of the Spirit, you are no longer a prisoner of sin, but a co-heir with Christ. 4. It’s a Covenant of Union In the Old Covenant God lived in a temple that you could never enter anyway, but in the new, you are the temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 3:16). You are one with the Lord and as he is — Holy, righteous, and perfect forever — so are you in this world (1 John 4:17). You don’t need more faith, more anointing, more of God, more fasting, more Bible. That’s old covenant thinking. You are complete in Christ (Colossians 2:10). In the new, growth happens as we acknowledge every good thing that is already ours in Christ (Philemon 1:6) In the old, growth happens with your ability to keep up with the rules. 5. It is a Covenant You Can Never Break The old covenant was underwritten by your weak promises to God, but the new rests on the “better promises” of God himself (Hebrews 8:6). In the old you loved God and forgave others because it was commanded of you to receive it from God, but in the new you love and forgive because He first loved and forgave you. The old covenant was between God and Israel, but the new covenant is between God and God. God holds up both ends of this “contract,” he swore by himself and gave us His Spirit as a guarantee of what is to come (2 Corinthians 1:22). Under the old covenant, you were blessed if you obeyed, but under the new you are blessed because Christ obeyed. Your salvation is eternally secured because it is Jesus who saves and keeps you, not your works, not your obedience, not your faithfulness. 6. It is a Covenant that Reveals your Father’s Heart God gave grace to the first man Adam and called him a son (Luke 3:38), but Adam ran and hid. God gave grace to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, but the children of Israel said, “No thank you. We rather do it our way.” At Mount Sinai the children of Israel swapped a covenant based on God’s faithfulness for one based on their own. “We will do whatever you command us to do.” They said (Exodus 19:8). But it was the forbidden tree all over again, and that broke our Father’s heart. An old covenant emphasis on rules will cause you to see God as a bookkeeper recording all your sins, and as a judge condemning your mistakes. But Jesus tells you today: “Hey, God is not like that! He’s your Heavenly Father who loves you and holds nothing against you. He longs for his prodigals to return home.” --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/upriseyourlife/support

018. What Makes The New Covenant New? | I Am A Hero Maker

1. God forgives ALL our sins (Matthew 26:28, Acts 13:38) and remembers them no more (Hebrews 8:12, 10:17). Our sins are not just “covered” by the blood of bulls and goats nor the blood of Jesus; they are carried and done away, deleted, removed with by the Lamb of God (John 1:29). In terms of justification, it is just as if we never committed those sins. 2. God promises to never be angry with us again (Isaiah 54:8-9) Unlike the obsolete covenant of Law, the New Covenant is an everlasting covenant of Love and Peace (Isaiah 54:10, 55:3). God will never stop being good to you! (Jeremiah 32:40) Let that sink in... 3. God qualifies us (Colossians 1:12). It is no longer about what we DO (Law covenant) or who we are related to (Covenant with Abraham). In the new, it’s all about JESUS and what He has DONE for us. 4. God promises to be with us (Ezekiel 37:27), takes a hold of us and never lets go (Philippians 3:12, Jude 24). In the old, God’s presence came and went, but in the new He has promised to never leave nor forsake us (Hebrews 13:5) Your security is not based on what you do but on what He has done and is now doing in you. So now you can be confident that He who began a good work in you will complete it (Philippians 1:6). Nothing can separate you from His love (Romans 8:39). 5. God blesses us with Christ’s perfect righteousness (2 Corinthians 5:21). Righteousness is not something to earn, rather something to receive, and in Him we already have it! Romans 5:17) 6. God gives us the Holy Spirit to teach us all things and guide us to all truth (John 14:26, 16:13). We no longer need priests to mediate for us, for we can all know the Lord (Jeremiah 31:34). What Peter said is true, we are His royal priests (1 Peter 2:9). 7. God is for us and not against us (Romans 8:31). God justifies us and there is now no more condemnation (Romans 8:1). When we sin, Jesus doesn’t judge us, he defends us and empowers us to go and sin no more (1 John 2:1, Titus 2:12). He abundantly supplies all our needs so that we might enjoy life to the full (John 10:10, Philippians 4:19). 8. God empowers us to overcome the enemy (1 John 5:4). We have his delegated authority over demons and disease (Mark 16:17). Living under His divine protection and grace we are destined to reign in life (Romans 5:17). 9. God offers us His rest (Hebrews 4:10-11). Under the Old Covenant it was do, do, do, but under the New Covenant it’s done, done ,done. 10. God gives us eternal life (Romans 6:23). Because Christ lives, we can truly live! He din’t give us a “better” life, He gave us His very own life! We don't have an upgraded version of our past life, we have the life of Christ. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/upriseyourlife/support
