Table of Contents:
=============================
I. How Can A Man Be Righteous Before God? - Job’s Question (Job 9:2)
A. God’s answer (Rom. 1:16-17)
1. Righteousness is from God by faith (Phil. 3:8-9)
2. The outworking of this righteousness (Phil. 3:10-11)
B. The alternative: legalism
1. The number one problem of the church
2. Paul’s reaction to legalism (Gal. 1:5-6)
3. Contrast Paul’s reaction to the Corinthians (1 Cor. 1:4-9)
C. The carnal nature
1. Motivation: “To be like God”-but independent of God (Gen. 3:5)
2. Our carnal nature can never please God (Rom. 8:8)
D. God has ruled out achieving righteousness by rules (Rom. 3:20, 22-28)
The first step: stop working (Rom. 4:1-5)
II. The Only Alternative To Rules
A. Be led by the Spirit-i.e., dependent (Rom. 8:14)
B. Two mutually exclusive alternatives (Rom. 6:14; Gal. 5:18)
C. The Word of God and the Holy Spirit-Piano and Pianist
D. The Holy Spirit will:
1. Direct you to God’s Word
2. Interpret God’s Word (compare 2 Pet. 1:20; 2 Tim. 3:16)
3. Show you how to apply God’s Word
E. The Holy Spirit will never:
1. Lead you to do anything contrary to Scripture
2. Lead you to do anything unholy
F. Map or personal guide?
III. Legalism
A. Two functions of law
1. To define and restrain evil-to set boundaries (Gal. 3:19)
2. To enable people to live together, e.g., traffic laws
But laws cannot make people good
B. Church/denominational rules
1. You should respect and obey rules, but they do not make you righteous
2. Most church rules do not deal with real, basic issues; e.g., Beatitudes in Matthew 5
a. Poor in spirit (v. 3)
b. Meek (v. 5)
c. Hunger and thirst for righteousness (v. 6)
d. Merciful (v. 7)
e. Pure in heart (v. 8)
f. Peacemakers (v. 9)
C. Relying on church rules will
a. Promote self-righteousness and pride (compare Luke 18:10-14)
b. Distract you from the really important issues (Matt. 23:23)
c. Separate you from Christians who follow different rules
IV. Grace: The Alternative
A. Law and grace are mutually exclusive (Rom. 6:14)
B. By grace through faith (Eph. 2:8-10)
1. Faith is a gift from God
2. Not by works-we cannot earn it
C. Faith and works
1. Faith without works is dead (James 2:26)
2. Faith comes first, then works
3. Works are the result of faith
D. The primary work of faith is love (Gal. 5:6)
Faith without love is dead
V. Operation And Effects Of Grace
A. God’s grace with me (1 Cor. 15:10)-a power working with Paul
B. God’s grace is always sufficient (2 Cor. 12:9-10)
C. Only grace can produce the results described in Eph. 1:3-6-our being saved is to
glorify God’s grace
D. God’s grace is rich and inexhaustible (Eph. 1:7)
E. Three supernatural effects of God’s grace (Eph. 2:4-7):
1. Made alive
2. Resurrected
3. Enthroned
No law can ever do these three things
F. We are to be an eternal demonstration of God’s grace to the entire universe (Eph. 3:9-
10)

My life's totally transformed today! Holy Spirit's touched me so deeply through your faithful servant Derek Prince, : "My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness." AMEN!

He taught and explained it perfectly CLEAR.
Glory to God.
AMEN and AMEN💖🙏
I love it how he says about the holy Spirit he said I don't need to map I know the way I'm the one that wrote them at praise Jesus
Thanks so much !
“Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us into Christ, that we might be justified by faith. But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.”
Galatians 3: 24-27
Yoh what a touching message 🙏 Amen. Glory to God
Thanks . This is a huge blessing.
The Lord allows His people to reach a place of utter helplessness and total reliance. But, when our prayer is based on this realization, the Lord's compassion prevails.
Powerful teaching!
When Mr. Prince's voice cracks during his sermon, revealing his broken heart for humanity's treatment of our God, His Son, and the Holy Spirit, I am humbled and ashamed. This man knew, so incredibly well, the truth of scripture, the condition of man's heart, and the plight of humanity. When such a brilliant and dedicated man suffers our failures, we should be on the edge of our seats, asking, asking, asking.
Thank you so much for this message!!❤
Thank you Lord! I function in your grace and in your grace alone.
I always think iam related to Derek. Though never we met.
The Holy Spirit can only lead you in the knowledge of the particular dispensation of which God is calleing you into. Ephesians 3:15-21, 3:3-10
Right on.
Revelatory teaching!!
I don't recommend reading these comments, they'll cloud your mind and muddy the message. So if you were about to scroll down, perhaps don't. God bless you, and I pray you wear God's helmet and guard your mind against the weapons of confusion and foolishness❤️
narcissist much? you might want to check yourself
Right on. I agree ver much.
They always miss what he's trying to convey to us. As he is saying, we are first and foremost saved by grace through faith as a free gift of God, not of works les they boast. Then grace and faith produces good works ie keeping Gods moral Law comes naturally or automatically as the fruit of faith and love or grace. It wont be as a duty or obligations which can become tedious or impossible. Good works comes second after grace n faith for righteousness or our sanctifications.
Good Works are the product of grace and faith.
Faith without love or deeds/actions is dead.
Thank you brother or sister.
amen 🙌🏻
32:00:00 and after are great teachings that I need to listen to again and again.
I can too.
Teljesen helyre jöttem nincs folyasom, hogy egyedül vagyok.
Amen
Hallelujah
One can "belief" that you are under grace if you "kill" someone... But 25 years of grace awaits..
Praise The Lord God Jesus Christ Ameen
I had the flesh was the unrenewed mind sets
41:00 - Faith has earthly risks.
A church without rules... Wow... Sound like a club where Grace abounds...
“Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us into Christ, that we might be justified by faith. But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.” Galatians 3: 24-27
It is in our Adamic nature to desire to follow a set of rules. In Matthew 22: 36-40, Jesus summed up Commandments 1-4 regarding God to “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, soul, and spirit,” and He summed up the Commandments 5-10 regarding our relationship to our fellow man as “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Jesus took the focus off our external appearance of obedience-and made the focus our hearts and intentions-not just our behaviors.
The OT law is like kindergarten. With Jesus, the law is far more difficult: With Jesus, the law is love.
Thank God Almighty for His Love and Amazing Grace.
Help please
Jesus... If ye love Me, keep My commandments. John 14:15
???
If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. John 15:10

:O
What happens to resurrection of the body when a righteous person has been so robbed by the occultists running the show that all the family can afford is creamation and a coffee can?
GOD resurrects, whether a body is buried or burned. HE made us the first time. HE will give us our resurrection body when HE raises us from the dead. HE is Powerful Creator.
@@Redsinbed I'a ll go with that. Pains me to not be able to afford better. Thank you and may God keep you safe.
Satan was referring to himself as being God Isaiah 14:13-14, 2 Thessalonians 2:4. Satan knew Eve would be thinking on ELOHIM, adam spoke of. But Satan was speaking of himself when saying god knows you will be as god.... If God is good and Evil, instead of ONLY BEINF GOOD but uses Evil, uses Satan,; is God the ONE OF us knowing good and evil? Or is the One of Us or among us Satan who knows both good and Evil? Will there be Evil in Heaven that man is become like US, or man is become like one of us? Who's the one of us? God is very able to say man has become like us knowing good and evil, instead it reads, "like one of us"
KJV Romans 7:7
7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.
Jesus modified the 10 Commandments entirely in Matthew 22: 36-40. His law is love-for love of God and man must be at the heart of our actions: not merely the external appearance of obedience.
No longer are we held accountable to following an external set of commands: We are now held accountable on a deeper level: We are now held accountable for our intentions in what we do, for our heart behind what we do.
The law is like kindergarten for believers. We learn right and wrong, but Friend, we’ve got to graduate to real faith and obedience that Jesus taught, which far transcends following Old Testament law:
Those whom we could legally stone under law, we must now love under grace.
“Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us into Christ, that we might be justified by faith. But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.”
Galatians 3: 24-27

Grace cannot function idependent of law.
No one goes to a police and beg for grace if he did not break a law.
No one goes to a magistrate and beg for grace if he did not break a law.
No one goes to a judge and begs for grace if hebdid not break a law..
So then since we are saved by grace ...then there is a lawcth adhere to.
What law.. ...see Ecclesiastes 12:13,14
We are to keep that whole law .
See James 2;10 - 12
Mathew 15:9
John 14:15.
Revelation 22:14.
John 14:15, John 14:21, John 15:10 all state the words of Jesus. "If you love me keep my Commandments"
Why does Paul contradict Jesus... Well he doesn't! And here is the fact.
Moses didn't make 10 rules... God's finger wrote it and gave Moses the 10 Commandments.
The "handwriting" that was against us.
Did moses write the 10 Commandments?
Jesus came as the "Lamb" of God to die for us. He came to fulfil the Levitical laws that pointed to Him as the Messiah. It was like a rehearsal that the people might see Jesus as the "Lamb"
Moses wrote all those laws and placed it in the "side" of the arc of the covenant
The 10 commandments are the very reason why the arc was called the "Covenant"
It was written by the "Finger of God."...not moses. Exodus 31:18
So... Paul does not contradict Jesus.
If grace is above the 10 Commandments and we don't need to keep if anymore... Try killing someone... You'll get 25 years of grace.
... In the same way all of the 10 Commandments are still a crucial part of Love to God and love towards our neighbour.
Yes thats true. BUT OR AND Jesus sums it in one word, LOVE.
Love covers all righteousness and the law. Love God with all our hearts and love our neighbors. Upon it, all the laws and prophets hung and fullfilled. When you love God, you live righteously and not sin against God by going against or breaking His laws. When you have the love of God you wont do anything unrighteous to your neighbor and anyone. You would do righteous by anyone and all people. Thats faith in action and righteousness obtained by faith. So agape love contains all the law of GOD. We are to keep the Laws of both God and the Land. Keeping Gods law keeps us sanctified and holy, but salvation by righteousness is only achieved by the grace of God through faith. WE are saved by believing, having faith in the LORD JESUS. Then faith provides work. When you believe and have faith then and only then you are able to keep the Laws out of love and holy reverence for a loving God and not out of duty and obligations....which is tedious....keeping the laws out of moral obligations has no power to keep us from committing it. We willl fall or give in from time to time some to stealing, lying, adultery etc because its not kept out of love by the power of the Holy Spirit. Sin is always near but loving God enables us to have the power to resist temptation through the power of the Holy Spirit.
So keep the Law out of love not out of obligation or duty for righteousbess or its impossible to stay righteous and holy before God because the flesh war against us continually.
The Law is meant to remind us what sin is and faith and love enables us to keep it for righteousness and sanctifications and Holiness before Holy God....
Amen. We do keep the Law but through the help of the Holy Spirit. Its impossible with out HIM. Its impossible to walk and live righteously without the Holy Spirit of God in us.
I for one falls here n there when im out of the walk in the Spirit
You explained the work of grace by faith so well! Lots if people still living under the law or under their own works. I used to be one of them, but God in His great love and grace SET ME FREE and brought me back to walk in the Holy Spirit. 🙌

I think he is a bit off here. He will sometimes essentially say that faith is the same as believing certain facts. That’s not what faith is.
Then what is faith
@@bluemeadows7520 Faith is notoriously hard to define. It is along the lines of keeping in mind that which we know, or that which we believe. AW Tozer calls it “the gaze of a soul upon a saving God”. This is because he calls belief in Christ a type of looking at a truth that is put inside of us. “As Moses raised the serpent so must the Son of man..”. Hence the phrase “Believe *on* the Lord”. But we can forget the God, ie look away.
I can believe certain facts but never keep them in mind and forget to decide based on them. To remember and behave according to what I believe despite my temporary feelings may be one definition. It’s an active and present and palpable belief in God, not just a theoretical one. The Bible calls it “the substance of things hoped for; the evidence of things not seen”. One thing faith is not, in the Bible, nor anyone or anytime in Christian history: believing something without evidence and/or for no reason and/or irrationally. Atheists say that all the time, but it’s not what faith is. They themselves don’t even use it that way “I have faith in that guy [or machine or team] etc”
I make a division too. Perhaps because belief to me is about things, faith is best described as n a person. I can believe all kinds of things about a person,; and still be compromised in my faith In a person I only know about. But I know what Derek means. Its a matter of definition. But I do not quibble about words overmuch. Because belief in the person themselves can equate to the same thing as faith for people..perhaps also from the epistemology of objective belief, and subjective trust. Obviously we would want both. I love his teaching. Great help for me as well. I has helped me spiritually both ways. He is such a good teacher. Everyone could profit greatly. We used to talk about only having head knowledge. We tend to believe what we think we know, which is normal. But as with Tozer and Derek there is as is said knowledge of the heart. That comes through a more personal knowledge through the Holy Spirit of Christ in our lives, and of course now, our Heavenly Father. Praise God in Christ through the Holy Spirit. And we now can know the Author. Heavens and earth will pass,away; but His word endures forever. Hello Family of Christ!
