The Gospel According to David

 Rocky Mountain Bible Conference

May 27–29, 2016

In Psalm 32 David declares, “Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord does not impute iniquity.” Paul uses this quote in Rom 4:7–8 to support three great truths of the Gospel:
(1) Justification is by faith in Christ alone;
(2) God imputes His righteousness to those who believe the Gospel; and
(3) This righteous standing before God is apart from works of any kind.

Power of Praise #6

Praise of obedience. In New Testament believers are told to repent — change of attitude that results in change of life any time we drift. Once repentance has taken place, we need commitment to obedience. An obedient life praises God. Saul is rebuked by Samuel for disobedience (1Sa 15:22-23). His disobedience was just as bad as divination. Abraham is an example of focused obedience (Gen 22:1-5, Heb 11:17). Our acts of obedience is an act of worship. Without faith it's impossible to please God (Heb 11:1, Heb 11:6). Paul despaired of life convinced that he was done, but realized that was God's purpose (2Co 1:8-10). Jesus came to deliver us from all circumstances. Issac was the hope of the world but God's command was more important to Abraham (Heb 11:17-19). Praise of thanksgiving is a natural expression of a faith that believes God is who He says He is and does what He says He'll do (Heb 13:15-17). (1) Praise ought to be continual on our part; (2) The first order of praise is thanksgiving; (3) Beyond thanksgiving is giving (2Co 8:1-5, 2Co 9:6-15); (4) The number one arena in which these things take place is the local church. We lose when we fail to praise.
