FACT NO. 5—That we must understand the two-fold ministry of our
Lord Jesus Christ.
During His earthly ministry He ministered exclusively to Israel:
His whole ministry to the Nation was under the Law of Moses (Matt. 5:17;
Gal. 4:4-5). Christians are not under the Law so we are not to live according
to Israel’s teachings. During His present ministry in Heaven, He is ministering
according to what He revealed to the Apostle Paul.
He is saving men according to His gospel of Grace. He is at The Throne Of
Grace Making Intercession for us (Rom. 8:34). We are to live in Paul’s
epistles where pure Christianity is found. This is not to say we should
neglect the rest of the Bible. It is ALL for us but not all TO us
(I Cor. 10:6, 11).
