  4. Righteousness/ justification is not a formula. It is a Person.

  5. A Review

  6. “One interest will prevail, one subject will swallow up every other,--Christ our righteousness.” RH Dec 23, 1890

  7. “In the last paragraph of the article from which the “One interest will prevail…” 

  8. Lift Up Jesus “If the Holy Spirit dwells in us, our work will testify to the fact, we shalllift up Jesus. Not one can afford to be silent now; the burden of the work

  9. Lift Up Jesus is to present Christ to the world.” RH Dec 23, 1890

  10. “If you would stand through the time of trouble, you must know Christ, and appropriate the gift of His righteousness, which He imputes to the repentant sinner.” RH Nov 22, 1892

  11. Why the Devil Hates RBF • “The thought that the righteousness of Christ is imputed to us, not because of any merit on our part, but as a

  12. Why the Devil Hates RBF free gift from God, is a precious thought. The enemy of God and man is not willing that this truth should be clearly

  13. Why the Devil Hates RBF presented; for he knows that if the people re-ceive it fully, his power will be broken. If he can control minds so that

  14. Why the Devil Hates RBF doubt and unbelief and darkness shall com-pose the experience of those who claim to be the children of God,

  15. Why the Devil Hates RBF he can overcome them with temptation. That simple faith which takes God at His word should be encouraged.

  16. Why the Devil Hates RBF God's people must have that faith which will lay hold of divine power; ‘for by grace are ye saved through

  17. Why the Devil Hates RBF faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God.’ [Ephesians 2:8.] Those who be-lieve that God for

  18. Why the Devil Hates RBF Christ's sake has for-given their sins, should not, through tempta-tion, fail to press on to fight the good fight of

  19. Why the Devil Hates RBF faith. Their faith should grow stronger until their Christian life, as well as their words, shall declare,

  20. Why the Devil Hates RBF ‘The blood of Jesus Christ . . . cleanseth us from all sin.’ [1 John 1:7.] GW 161

  21. Message Encouragement Hope Gospel Warning Argument Doctrine

  22. “Hanging upon the cross Christ was the gospel.... This is our message, our argument, our

  23. doctrine, our warning to the impenitent, our encouragement for the sorrowing, the hope of every believer....

  24. He whose eyes are fixed on Jesus will leave all. He will die to selfishness.” 6BC 1113

  25. “The sacrifice of Christ as an atonement for sin is the great truth around which all other truths cluster.” GW 315

  26. Theme of Every Discourse • “I present before you the great, grand monu-ment of mercy and re-generation, salvation and redemption--the Son of God uplifted on

  27. Theme of Every Discourse theCrossof Calvary. This is to be the theme of every discourse. Christ declares, “And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.” (MS 70, 1901, 5BC 1137)

  28. Today We will see Jesus…

  29. We will see Jesus: • identified with fallen humanity. • with our guilt, suffering for us. • suffering with us. • suffering as us.

  30. We will see Jesus: • in condemnation. • in fear. • in conflict (emotions and will). • in discouragement.

  31. We will see Jesus: • in despondency. • in depression. • in despair. • in physical and mental and emotional convulsions.

  32. The Faith of Jesus

  33. The Golden Faith of Jesus

  34. The Golden Faith • Rev 3:18. Refined by fire. • 1 Pet 1:6-7. Tried in the fire.

  35. The Golden Faith “Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heavi-ness through manifold temptations:

  36. The Golden Faith that the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with

  37. The Golden Faith fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the ap-pearing of Jesus Christ.” 1 Pet 1:6-7

  38. Gethsemane

  39. Gethsemane • “He began to be deeply distressed and troubled.” Mark 14:33, NIV

  40. Gethsemane • The verb translated “deeply distressed” (NIV) “deeply disturb-ed” (NKJV) designates a highly emotional

  41. Gethsemane condition of deep sor-row caused by some-thing perplexing and overwhelming.

  42. Gethsemane • The experience is often accompanied by fear, even terror and trembling.

  43. Gethsemane • Matthew uses another verb translated “overwhelmed by sorrow” to designate a high level of emotional distress, sadness, and anxiety. Matt 26:38

  44. Gethsemane • In Mark 14:33, the word “troubled” ex-presses more clearly anxiety, distress, and horror.

  45. Gethsemane • The emotional condition of Jesus was reaching new and unknown depths of discomfort and upheaval.

  46. Gethsemane • The peace that character-ized Jesus appeared to be waning; fear, tremble-ing, and anxiety were taking over instead.

  47. Gethsemane • Notice what Mark says: that Jesus “began” to feel that way as He entered into the Garden of Gethsemane.

  48. Gethsemane • This emotional turmoil was going to get much worse. • Notice, further, the way Jesus Himself described His condition to the disciples:

  49. Gethsemane • “My soul is exceeding-ly sorrowful, even to death” (Mark 14:34, NKJV).
