Your Love today we are Chang tonight we’re going to talk about the glory of Grace and what that is and then we’re going to to move into something that uh I just got to be honest with you I I just probably a few about an hour ago closed my Bible because I was like I ran into something I’m like is this true and I’m thinking no and I looked at it again I’m like no and I’m thinking Lord are they going to believe me when I show them this it’s going to be a pretty good journey tonight we’re going to talk about the
glory of Grace I want to start off in John um chapter 1 and verse 14 we’re doing this study on the Book of John John was pretty fascinating because you out of all the apostles god um God chose John to to write this and to get this strong Revelation on Grace and one of the things that that that I’m commissioned to doing and that I plan on doing in this series is teaching every jot and turt of it and the whole book is comparing the law of Moses with the grace of Jesus Christ and about time you finish this you would consider it an
insult for you to even think about trying to add anything to what Jesus has already done so in the book of St John chapter 114 let’s go ahead and start with this I saw myself T night just sitting and and just like teaching as if five people are around and just sharing and sharing the word to you I’m so hungry to get this to you so I don’t I don’t even know if I’ll finish it but I I there’s a place I’d love to get to tonight probably won’t get to it but it’s a place I’d love to get to tonight
that’s really going to stir you up so John 1 ver14 he says and the Word was made flesh the word was made flesh uh and we’re talking about in the beginning was the word the word was made flesh in verse 14 and that word that was made flesh we refer to him as Jesus okay the word that was wrapped in flesh was made flesh we call him Jesus and here’s what he says and and he dwelt Among Us he dwelt amongst men and we beheld his glory now what what what what did they behold it was called Glory we beheld his
glory and then it said the glory as of the only begotten of the father so we beheld the glory of God the glory of the father and the glory of the father is Jesus Christ we beheld the glory of the father I so that you can follow me I spent years trying to figure out how to how to talk about glory in a practical manner so that people could get it or they wouldn’t super spiritualize it and just kind of lose what we were talking about but when I think of Glory I think about manifestation okay and and it fits
everywhere the manifestation of God Jesus Christ the word that was made flesh is the manifestation from God the only begotten of the father from God and and so glory is manifestation when you see the Glory of his written word that’s the manifested word that’s something you experienced in your life whether you stood on the word of healing and then healing came that’s Glory okay it’s manifested word and so he says uh and the glory as of the only begotten of the father he says the only begotten the
glory of God Jesus Christ was full of grace and truth the glory of God Jesus Christ is full of grace and full of Truth and so John says we beheld his glory the glory as the only begotten of the father now compare it with the law of Moses the lawgiver Moses also had Glory but it was passing Glory okay so we’re going to we’re going to look at those comparing we’re talking about the glory uh of the father Jesus Christ but we’re also talking about that passing Glory that was uh that was on uh Moses
if you go to 2 Corinthians 3 verse 7 and 8 and this is just the foundation of where we’re getting ready to go 2 Corinthians chap 3: 7 and 8 and he says but if the ministration of death written and engraven in Stones all right now now think with for a moment the ministration of death written and engraven in Stones he says if it was glorious now as far as I I I I want to be clear about this you know the law is perfect the law is Godly the go law is right the problem’s not with with the what was written on Stone the problem is with
what was written on Stone was so perfect and men were not so you got imperfect people trying to keep something that’s perfect and that’s where the problem came in that’s why we needed a new agreement so that we could be successful cuz there’s nobody could be successful on the under this no man alive could be successful under this except Jesus okay and so he says but if the ministration of death now notice what he called that which was written and engraven in Stones he called it the ministration of death
yeah whoa all right but if the administration of death written and engraven in Stones he said it was glorious so that the children of Israel could not steadfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his count count okay now watch this which Glory was to be done away so the glory that was on the face of Moses he had to wear a veil we have a wrong conception of this the the veil was not to cover up the glory to from being seen it was to co cover up the fact that the glory was disappearing I’m going to read that to
you it was the glory was fading away and as leader you know if if the glory was responsible for them following then the concern was if they saw the glory fading away they might start acting up so cover it and I’ll show you what what the veil is all about too he says which Glory was to be done away verse eight how shall not the ministration of the spirit so now you have the ministration of death which was written and engraven in Stones which Glory was fading away versus the the ministration of the spirit which is
rather more glorious okay so I think in order for you to get a hold of really what’s going on here I I I’m I’m I think I want to use I want to read the entire passage out of the New Living Translation 2 Corinthians chapter 3 and let’s start at verse 6 and read through Verse 18 because you see the contrast between the glory of the law and that of of Grace you’re talking about you know Glory that’s going to be Eternal versus fading Glory okay the glory of the law versus the glory of Grace and I think
it’s I think it’s worth the time for us to to look at this and to read it so let’s do that again he has enabled us to be Ministers of the New Testament so all of us are ministers of the New Testament not of the old this is a covenant this is a covenant not of written laws the New Testament is not a covenant of written laws but of the spirit so please understand in these last days we got to learn about the presence of God we’ve got to engage with the spirit of God because this is going to be very
important all right this is a covenant of not of written laws but of the spirit the old written Covenant ends in death but under the New Covenant the life or the spirit is one that gives life you we talked about this last time I was here you the law is not going to impart life okay but in this new covenant life is imparted all right verse uh seven the old way with laws etched in stone led to death though it began with such Glory that the people of Israel could not bear to look at Moses’s fath face that’s what
it begin with for his face Shone with the glory of God even though the brightness was already fading away all right next verse shouldn’t we expect far greater glory under the new way now that the holy spirit is giving life see the comparison in verse 10 he says uh if the old way which brings condemnation was glorious how much more glorious is the new way which makes us right with God next verse in fact that first Glory was not glorious at all compared with the overwhelming glory of the new way you know what he’s saying don’t even
think about trying to compare this Glory which with that which is already passed away all right so if the old way which has been replaced was glorious how much more glorious is the new which remains forever so you have Glory that remains forever under the New Covenant and you have fading Glory which is already faded away under the old Covenant wow all right since this new way gives us such confidence we can be very bold we are not like Moses who put a veil over his face so the people of Israel would not see the glory even
though it was destined to fade away but the people’s minds were hardened and to this day whenever the old Covenant is being read the same Veil covers their minds so they cannot understand the truth now go to verse um 15 behold there I want to Define this Veil for you so you you’re going to keep bumping into it so we need to we need to see what it is let me give you a definition of the of of this the veil what is the veil today right now the veil today is the condemnation that comes from the law that says they don’t measure up to
the standard the condemnation that comes from the law that says that they are deserving of punishment the condemnation that comes from the law that say that that they are they have a cursed life that’s the veil that’s the veil and he says that Veil even when they read the Old Testament today when you read that old test that old law that old that the law he says condemnation comes and and that’s what it was sent to do it was sent to condemn and to shame condemnation comes and and you’re condemned you don’t think you measure up
you don’t think that you’re deserving you think you deserve punishment you think you deserve to live a cursed life so who puts the veil over people’s eyes 2 Corinthians 4 3-4 Satan is the one that blinds the minds of those lest they the light of the Glorious gospel should come in so when we turn to Jesus the veil of condemnation is removed the only way you get the veil of condemnation off is to turn to Jesus and to make him your lord and personal savior where here he’s he’s he’s comparing this he says yes
even today when they read Moses’s writings their hearts are covered with that Veil condemnation the feeling that I’m condemned that I don’t I have a that that’s God’s punishing me that I’m cursed that’s that’s the condemnation even when you read it today okay he says their hearts are covered with the veil and they do not understand they don’t understand what they’re doing when they choose to live by a old Covenant where the glory has already faded away all right verse 16 but whenever someone
turns to the Lord he says what the veil’s taken away so to deal with that condemnation to deal with that shame to deal with all that stuff he says you’re going to have to turn to the Lord Jesus is your way out of that condemnation amen glory to God all right now watch this he says for the Lord is the spirit and wherever the spirit of the Lord is there is freedom now in context you know what that means where the spirit of the Lord is there’s liberty we thought it was Liberty to shout Liberty to do a
cartwheel Liberty to shout hallelujah no in context he says where the spirit of the Lord is there is freedom and liberty from what from the condemnation of the law deliverance from the from the law deliverance from the veil you you see how when you take scriptures out of context you’re left with Deon and you know most of us all our life we just thought well whether the spirit to God is there’s liberty so I got the Liberty to shout hallelujah I got the Liberty to dance that ain’t what he talking about
he said and and is it interesting we take the cheaper over the deeper every time it is the freedom from that Old ministration of death freedom from what the law brings to your life that’s what he says there and he says in in verse 18 I love it so all of us who have had the veil removed how many of you have had the Veil removed it doesn’t make a difference when you know what the veil is cuz I mean all my life I just thought Veil some over I know what talking about but we have had the veil removed and we can see and we can
reflect the glory of the Lord and the Lord who is the spirit makes us more and more like him as we are changed into his glorious image and I still don’t see nothing there that says you bring bring something to the table so you can be made more and more like him I’m trying not to get excited like I did the last time here I’m trying to stay at least some level of calmness here cuz I I I I got blown away I got blown away by 5:30 I told ta let me close this I said I am too blown away and then I I I said it to her and she
she she’s kind of looked at me like you going to have to show me that and I’m like taffy that’s what I’ve been doing all day I was saying to the Lord you got to show me that not this but what where we’re going and and if I’ll shut up and go on we’ll get there amen all right all right so the the glory there there there is in the light of Grace let’s start there in the light of the grace of God the law has now no glory in the light of the grace of God you can see that very clearly doesn’t have any Glory so this
Glory of Grace and I want you to remember what is the glory of Grace this Glory of Grace is not seen by those who are under the law we couldn’t see it you remember when you were under the law you couldn’t see it you couldn’t see it you we were we were trained in religion and law that you you got to do good to get good and if you do bad you get bad people who are under the law can’t see this and yet there was something that Isaiah prophesies he prophesies the the very thing that was going to see the
glory of God which is Jesus glorified in the earth go with me to Isaiah chapter 53 you’re familiar with this verse 2 and 3 this is a very thing that we see him glorified Isaiah is speaking prophetically of Israel and Israel rejected him I don’t know if you know that Israel rejected him he was rejected not all right me no letters the bible say that I’m going to show you where they re rejected him Isaiah 53:2 for he shall grow up before him as a tender plant and as a root out of the dry ground he have no form nor
comeliness and when we shall see him there is no beauty that we should desire him he is despised and rejected of men a man of sorrow and acquainted with grief and we hid as it were our faces from him he was despised and we esteemed him not and yet it was in this very suffering that was described here by Isaiah by which he fulfilled the demands of the law and then did away with it that his glory Shone forth on the earth for it was on the cross that Jesus was glorified let’s look at John 12 verse 20 27 and 28 it was on the cross that he
that that he was glorified the manifestation of the grace of God on that cross when the devil thought he was doing one thing he didn’t even realize he was being glorified right there on that clock cross look at this verse 27 now is my soul troubled and what shall I say father save me from this hour but for this cause came I unto this hour father glorify thy name then come then came there a voice from Heaven saying I have glorified I have I have both glorified it and will glorify it again now I ask this question
