You are accepted

[ed]

We can go on and on about the Law. Many know the law and it's implications. I don't.

Good news. The law does not make us acceptable to God. We are accepted in Christ. The work of the law is done.

Good news, we are acceptable, whether we accept it or not, for it is by one work that we are acceptable. It is by the one work of Jesus Christ that makes us acceptable.

This is why we can knock and the door WILL BE OPENED.

We see that there is judgment and many are not accepted in the day of judgement. Why? They did not Love. They did not follow the king of love. They thought they were doing the work of the lord. They thought they were doing the acceptable things that gave them salvation, but they did not meet the standard of love.

These will still be accepted, yet they will have to suffer some correction.

1 Corinthians 11:31 For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.

The judgment that the world will go through does not mean that they are not accepted. They are. They just never knew it. They will be taught of their acceptance and brought to a place where they will know that they too are accepted, that God may be ALL IN ALL.

1 Corinthiand 15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
25 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.
26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.
27 For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him.
28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

You can study the law all you want, but it does not make you acceptable. Study love. Study Christ, and learn love, and judge yourself by the law of love. If you judge yourself you will not be judged with the world. You will walk in fellowship with Christ, and know that you will be acceptable in that day when the world is judged.

God is love.

Need some help with 1 Corinthians 11:32

I remember doing a word study on the word condemned, and the same word is used in other places that shows that "condemnation" does not mean damned to hell, ect.

I don't have the tools anymore to do the word study.

The specific word condemned.  How many times and where?

Thanks.

Matthew 10:33 Saying, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the chief priests, and unto the scribes; and they shall condemn G2632 him to death, and shall deliver him to the Gentiles:

James 5:9 Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest ye be condemned: G2632 behold, the judge standeth before the door.

Great study Ed. I really appreciate you bringing this up.

The Greek word below actually means: to condemn, but is only used 6 times!

Condemned - καταδικάζω
Transliteration: katadikazō
Pronunciation: kä-tä-dē-kä'-zō (Key) 

Root Word (Etymology)
From κατά (G2596) and a derivative of δίκη (G1349)

Outline of Biblical Usage
to give judgment against (one), to pronounce guilty
to condemn
KJV Translation Count — Total: 5x
The KJV translates Strongs G2613 in the following manner: condemn (5x).

Strong's Number G2613 matches the Greek καταδικάζω (katadikazō),
which occurs 6 times in 4 verses in the Greek concordance of the KJV

Mat 12:7
But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned G2613 the guiltless.

Mat 12:37
For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned. G2613

Luk 6:37
Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn G2613 not, and ye shall G2613 not be condemned: G2613 forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:

Jam 5:6
Ye have condemned G2613 and killed the just; and he doth not resist you.



However, the English word "Condemned" is used a lot more than just 6 times in the Greek Scriptures.

The other word for Condemn is: κρίνω   Though, to be fair it is not always transliterated as Condemn

to contend together, of warriors and combatants

The KJV translates Strongs G2919 in the following manner: judge (88x), determine (7x), condemn (5x), go to law (2x), call in question (2x), esteem (2x), misc (8x).

So, with all being said and done. The real word for CONDEMNED was used only 6 times in the verses listed above.

Hope this helps  :girlheart:
