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.

True teaching that is which creates change in the hearer. Until there's life chnge, there's now growth. A good conscience finds it's source in God. Paul revolutionized the concept of conscience. We have to maintain a good conscience (Psa 51:2, Joh 13:10). Things done in our own strength are dead (Heb 9:14); good works result in a good concience. Paul discusses our priesthood in chapter 2; the key verse is 1Ti 2:5 "For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus." The coronation of Jesus Christ designated Jesus a mediator -- representing men and offering acceptable sacrifices (Heb 5:1-6, 1Pe 2:4-5). The human heart in time of anquish cries for a mediator. "Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him" (Job 13:15). "Nor is there any mediator between us, Who may lay his hand on us both" (Job 19:32). Prayer is one of the most important disciplines to master in life.  "Oh, that my words were written! Oh, that they were inscribed in a book! That they were engraved on a rock With an iron pen and lead, forever! For I know that my Redeemer lives, And He shall stand at last on the earth; 19:26 And after my skin is destroyed, this I know, That in my flesh I shall see God" (Job 19:23-25). (1) All of us are ambasadors for Christ (2Co 5:14-21); (2) We are all priests (1Pe 2:5-9); (3) We are ministers to build up the body of Christ (1Co 12:7).
