The Relevance of God's Word

The Favor of God reaches us in His Son Romans 5:20-21:
Romans 5:20 "The law was brought in so that the trespass might increase. But where sin increased, grace increased all the more, 21 so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."
The Favor of God reaches us in His Son:
God's favor never actually reaches us through the Law, because in our own efforts we always fall Short of the Favor of God offered to us in the Law. The favor of God offered to Jesus in the Law, reached Jesus because He was sinless and perfectly obeyed the law. Hence, the Favor of God reaches us Through His only begotten Son; Indeed, His Grace reaches in Jesus' righteousness

Nothing to Fear in Life at All! Revelation 1:17-18
In Franklin D Roosevelts first inaugural address he said, “The Only Thing We Have to Fear Is Fear Itself” March 4, 1933
But to those who are in Christ, have nothing to fear at all! The apostle John recorded what Jesus said to him after He Saw Christ in His Glory, and when Jesus placed His right hand on John, Jesus Said in Revelation 1:17-18 "Then he placed his right hand on me and said: “Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last. 18 I am the Living One; I was dead, and behold I am alive for ever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and Hades.

Since the greatest fear in life is death; Since the greatest fear of death has been conquered by Jesus in His death and Resurrection, then there is no more fear in life at all, for Jesus Conquered the Grave in His Resurrection. Do you have fear in life? Trust in Christ who conquered Death, and all your fears will diminish away, in the Joy of knowing Christ and the power of His Resurrection!
