Identity, Integrity, Authority

(notice on Identity Integrity Authority) In the World an integrated strong personality brings good and able character who build a successful life with authority and his/her fruits are seen as the ID of this life. This is the physical approach and respect for dignity, credit before other men. Meanwhile in the Heavenly Kingdom , the New Testament dynamic suggest that our restoration starts with God Who gives you a new ID by shear grace through Jesus' blood and this grace and status builds up a strong integrity in the new self. God is a good father and after a while (Gal 4:2 when the integrity is strong enough) He gives you more and more authority (gradually) according to his will. This is the Heavenly approach order and brings a wreath /credit on the last day, before the Throne.

(ESV) SERMON DESCRIPTION In this sermon on Romans 10:4 titled "Christ, the End of the Law", Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones says that this Scripture is the charter for all Christians and it sets them free. In this verse, Paul proclaims that Christ is the fulfillment of the law for righteousness. He means that the law was not temporary but it is eternal. God is not doing away with the law but rather upholding the law. It is an expression of God’s holy character and what He expects of the human race. So how is Christ the end of the law?

He came into the world as a God-man born under the law, lived a life of perfect obedience to the law, and died to satisfy the punishment of the law. The fulfillment is true because God raised Him from the dead. No one else was able to do this. Christ is the end...
