Slide 6: 

2. Paul Stands only on the Gospel of Christ. Vs 1:10-2:21 15"We who are Jews by birth and not 'Gentile sinners' 16know that a man is not justified by observing the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by observing the law, because by observing the law no one will be justified. Justification is not by observing the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ THE LAW: 1. Guards us from sin by giving us standards for behavior; 2. Convicts us of sin, leading us the opportunity to ask for God’s forgiveness daily (1Jh 1:9); 3. Drives us to trust in the sufficient of Christ (his blood, cross and resurrection).

Slide 7: 

Verse 2:21: for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ dies for nothing! 20I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. Christ gives himself for you

Slide 10: 

Why did God bless and use Paul mightily? ( 1Cor 9:16-26) Since God calls us, we are so unique and somebody to glorify Him. a. Don’t say I can’t do it- b. God can use you just as you are Ps 32:8- I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you and watch over you. Luke12:11-12- But when they bring you before the synagogues, the rulers, and the authorities, do not worry about how you should make your defense or what you should say, for the Holy Spirit will teach you at that moment what you must say.” .” Phi 4:13- I can do everything through him who gives me strength. with just as you have
