TONY’S TOP TEN
Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and active and full of power
[making it operative, energizing, and effective]. KJV Amplified.
1. The word of God is full of God’s power and authority and it is within its
power to influence or to command thoughts opinions and behavior.
2. The word of God has a convincing force within itself far more powerful
than the lifecycle and reason of man.
3. Authority establishes a standard and without a standard there is chaos.
4. Matthew 5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one
jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
5. The idea here with the words “jot and tittle” is that, even the smallest
dot above or beside a letter of the scripture will be fulfilled before heaven
and earth can pass.
6. Matthew 5:19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least
commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the
kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be
called great in the kingdom of heaven.
7. The law here is not the law of Moses but the law of the kingdom, which
is the scriptures themselves.
8. We know this because of Matthew 5:20 For I say unto you, That except
your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees,
ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
9. This can only be done by surpassing the letter of the law for the spirit
of the law; moving from legality to spirituality.
10. 2 Corinthians
3:6 Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the
letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.
