Bible Marking Series..."The Law of God"

 

As you can tell, I have decided to go in a different order than how my teacher presented these topics.

Before we begin, I would like to be sure and say up front- on all of these markings- I am not claiming that these are all of the verses for the topics. This is just a basic beginning point at studying a topic. I hope you all will enjoy them all. 

Things you will need for Bible Marking:

*Bible
*colored pencils
*pencil- I recommend a good #2 pencil- these are getting harder and harder to find.
*pen- optional - I like to use a pen to write information on a paper in the back of my Bible.
*ruler or bookmark- you will use this to underline the verses.

Now you are ready to go!

Today's lesson is The Law of God

Now by this time you should already have 2 other lessons marked in your Bible (unless you would rather not do it that way and you just want to do your lessons on paper and put into a notebook-it is up to you- when writing these posts though I will be talking as if you are doing a Bible Marking in your Bible - like what I have done).

The Law of God - LG - Romans 4:15 (This is the space for you to pick a color to use and color in whatever shape you'd like to)

So next you would go to the above verse in your Bible. Once you get there - Underline the verse/verses with your colored pencil.

"because the law brings about wrath; for where there is no law there is no transgression."
At the end of this verse you will want to write - LG- Luke 16:17

"And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one tittle of the law to fail."
LG- Psalms 111:7-8

   "The works of His hands are verity and justice; All His precepts are sure. 8 They stand fast forever and ever, And are done in truth and uprightness." LG- Romans 7:12   

"Therefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good."
 LG- Matthew 5:17-19   

 "Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. 18 For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled. 19 Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven."
LG-James 2:10

"For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of all."
LG- Matthew 22:36-40   

    "Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?" 37 Jesus said to him, "'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.' 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' 40 On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets." 
LG- 1 John 5:1-3

"Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves Him who begot also loves him who is begotten of Him. 2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep His commandments. 3 For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome." LG- 1 John 2:3-6    

"Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments. 4 He who says, "I know Him," and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5 But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him. 6 He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked."
 LG- Revelations 14:12

"Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus." LG-end 

We have now finished our 3rd Bible Marking. See you again next week for our next one. I will leave you with a great quote that helps bring this lesson altogether. God bless :O)

"The law of God, from its very nature, is unchangeable. It is a revelation of the will and the character of its Author. God is love, and His law is love. Its two great principles are love to God and love to man. "Love is the fulfilling of the law." Romans 13:10. The character of God is righteousness and truth; such is the nature of His law. Says the psalmist: "Thy law is the truth:" "all Thy commandments are righteousness." Psalm 119:142, 172. And the apostle Paul declares: "The law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good." Romans 7:12. Such a law, being an expression of the mind and will of God, must be as enduring as its Author."
