THE WORK OF GOD IN THE BELIEVER!


THE WORK OF JESUS ON OUR BEHALF!

John 19:28-30 - After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, I thirst.  Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar:  and they filled a sponge with vinegar, and put it upon hyssop, and put it to His mouth.  When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, He said, It is finished:  and He bowed His head, and gave up the ghost.

John 20:30-31And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book:  but these are written, that you might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing you might have life through His name.

Acts 2:22-24 - You men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by Him in the midst of you, as you yourselves also know:  Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, you have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain:  Whom God has raised up, having loosed the pains of death:  because it was not possible that He should be held by it.


THE WORK OF THE SPIRIT ON OUR BEHALF!

John 3:5-8Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a man be born of water (physical birth) and of the Spirit (spiritual birth), he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.  That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.  Marvel not that I said unto you, You must be born again.  The wind blows where it wants, and you hear the sound of it, but can not tell from where it comes, and where it goes:  so it is with every one that is born of the Spirit.

John 14:26But the Comforter, Who is the Holy Ghost, Whom the Father will send in My name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

John 16:13-14Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth:  for He shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak:  and He will show you things to come.  He shall glorify Me:  for He shall receive of mine, and shall show it unto you.

Ephesians 1:13-14; 4:30 - In (Jesus Christ) Whom you also trusted, after you heard the Word of truth, the Gospel of your salvation:  in Whom also after you believed, you were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise, Who is the earnest (guarantee) of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of His glory. . . . And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, by Whom you are sealed unto the day of redemption.

THE WORK OF THE FATHER ON OUR BEHALF!

John 3:16-17For God so loved the world, that He gave His Only Begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.  For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved.

2 Corinthians 5:19-21 - . . . God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto Himself, not imputing their trespasses unto (not counting their sins against) them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.  Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us:  we pray you in Christ's stead, be reconciled to God.  For He made Him (Jesus) to be sin for us, Who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God (by faith) in Him.

Ephesians 2:8-10For by grace are you saved through faith; and that not of yourselves:  it is the gift of God:  not of works, lest any man should boast.  For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God has before ordained that we should walk in them.

Philippians 1:3, 6; 2:13 - I thank my God upon every remembrance of you . . . being confident of this very thing, that He Who has begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. . . . For it is God Who works in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure.

Hebrews 13:20-21Now the God of peace, Who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that Great Shepherd of the Sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, make you perfect in every good work to do His will, working in you that which is well-pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ; to Whom be glory forever and ever.  Amen.

THE RESULT:  BORN AGAIN BELIEVERS
SHOULD BE GRATEFUL AND HUMBLE!
