FROM D. JAMES KENNEDY MINISTRIES
THIS IS KENNEDY CLASSICS
♪
WELCOME TO KENNEDY CLASSICS
HELLO, I'M FRANK WRIGHT, PRESIDENT OF
D. JAMES KENNEDY MINISTRIES WHERE WE ARE STANDING FOR
TRUTH AND DEFENDING YOUR FREEDOM.
WELCOME TO KENNEDY CLASSICS.
BE SURE TO VISIT OUR MINISTRY WEBSITE,
DJKM.ORG, WHERE YOU CAN FIND AN ABUNDANCE OF
DIGITAL, AUDIO, VIDEO, AND PRINT RESOURCES.
IT HAS BEEN SAID THAT "IF YOU CAN'T EXPLAIN IT TO A
SIX YEAR OLD, YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND IT YOURSELF."
SIMPLY PUT, IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO BOIL SOMETHING
DOWN TO ITS BARE ESSENTIALS, THEN YOU DON'T
FULLY GRASP THAT THING.
THAT QUOTE HAS OFTEN TIMES BEEN ATTRIBUTED TO ALBERT
EINSTEIN, PROBABLY REFERENCING AN ASPECT OF
QUANTUM MECHANICS, BUT THE POINT BEING MADE IS STILL
PERTINENT TO US.
THINK ABOUT YOUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE BIBLE
AND OF THEOLOGY.
GOD'S WORD IS CHOCK-FULL OF COMPLEXITIES AND
INTRICACIES THAT SOME THEOLOGIANS WILL SPEND
DECADES STUDYING, AND SOMETIMES NEVER FULLY
UNDERSTANDING.
DR. KENNEDY POSITS THAT IN ORDER TO UNDERSTAND THE
ESSENTIALS OF THE BIBLE, YOU MUST LOOK AT TWO
THINGS, GRACE AND LAW.
THESE TWO THINGS HAVE BEEN MISCONSTRUED BY MANY, AND
UNDERSTANDING THE RELATIONSHIP THEY SHARE
IS VITAL TO FULLY UNDERSTANDING GOD'S WORD.
HERE THEN IS DR. D. JAMES KENNEDY WITH HIS MESSAGE:
"GRACE & LAW."
OUR SCRIPTURE LESSON THIS MORNING IS TAKEN FROM THE
THIRD CHAPTER OF PAUL'S LETTER TO THE ROMANS,
ROMANS CHAPTER 3, AND WE SHALL BEGIN OUR READING
WITH THE 19TH VERSE.
I HOPE YOU HAVE YOUR BIBLE WITH YOU TO FOLLOW ALONG
WITH ME.
IT IS NO DOUBT OF SMALL IMPORTANCE IN THE COSMIC
SCHEME OF THINGS BUT GREAT IMPORTANCE TO ME, PERHAPS
A MATTER OF LITTLE CURIOSITY TO YOU THAT I
MIGHT MENTION THAT VERSES 19 AND 20 WERE THE VERSES
THAT GOD USED TO BRING ME OUT OF DARKNESS INTO LIGHT
AND THROUGH WHICH I WAS CONVERTED TO CHRIST.
MAY THEY HAVE A SIMILAR IMPACT ON SOME LIVES HERE
TODAY.
MAY WE HEAR THE INSPIRED WORD OF THE LIVING GOD.
AND MAY GOD SPEAK TO OUR HEARTS AND MINDS THIS DAY
THROUGH THIS HIS HOLY WORD AND MAY HIS NAME EVER BE
PRAISED AMEN.
WELL, WE LIVE IN AN AGE OF INCREDIBLE BIBLICAL
ILLITERACY.
THE AVERAGE AMERICAN TODAY HARDLY HAS A CLUE AS TO
WHAT IS FOUND BETWEEN THE COVERS OF THIS VOLUME.
PERHAPS EVEN MORE TRAGICALLY, THE MAJORITY
OF THE PEOPLE IN THE CHURCH DON'T KNOW MUCH
MORE ABOUT IT.
WHAT DOES IT CONTAIN?
WHAT IS THE GREAT MESSAGE OF IT?
WELL ESSENTIALLY, IF YOU ARE TO UNDERSTAND IT, YOU
MUST UNDERSTAND THAT IT CONTAINS TWO THINGS: ONE
IS LAW AND THE OTHER IS GRACE.
THOSE ARE GREAT CONCEPTS, TREMENDOUS PRINCIPLES, AND
VERY FEW AMERICANS KNOW WHAT BOTH OF THEM REALLY
MEAN AND FEW CHURCH MEMBERS REALLY KNOW HOW
THEY FULLY RELATE ONE TO ANOTHER.
THE LAW, OF COURSE, TELLS US WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO.
THESE ARE THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD: "THUS SHALT THOU
DO", THE SCRIPTURE SAYS MANY AND MANY A TIME.
THE FIRST MISUNDERSTANDING THAT WE SEE AS WE LOOK AT
THE LEVELS OF THE LACK OF UNDERSTANDING OF THE
SCRIPTURE IS THE FACT THAT THERE ARE MILLIONS OF
AMERICANS, AND I WOULD SAY APPROXIMATELY 60% OF THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT WE SHALL GAIN
ENTRANCE INTO PARADISE BY THE METHOD OF THE LAW-
THAT THE LAW PRESENTS A LADDER THAT WE ARE TO
CLIMB UP INTO HEAVEN.
NOW THAT ERROR IS SO WIDESPREAD THAT IT CAUSED
DR. WILLIAM CHILDS ROBINSON, THE GREATEST
SCHOLAR I EVER STUDIED UNDER, TO SAY SOMETHING
WHICH I HAVE SAID BEFORE, BUT WOULD LIKE TO INSCRIBE
IT ON THE WALLS OF YOUR MEMORY.
AS YOU CAN'T DO THAT, AT LEAST HANG IT UP ON YOUR
REFRIGERATOR.
IF YOU UNDERSTAND THIS, YOU WILL UNDERSTAND WHAT
THE BIBLE IS ALL ABOUT, BUT I GUARANTEE YOU THAT
THERE IS PROBABLY A MINORITY OF PEOPLE IN THIS
SANCTUARY RIGHT NOW THAT FULLY UNDERSTAND IT.
HE SAID: "CHRIST ALWAYS HAS BEEN AND ALWAYS WILL
BE CRUCIFIED BETWEEN TWO THIEVES- LEGALISM AND
LICENSE," AND THERE IS A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF TRUTH
IN THAT STATEMENT.
LET ME SAY IT AGAIN, CHRIST ALWAYS HAS BEEN AND
ALWAYS WILL BE CRUCIFIED BETWEEN TWO THIEVES-
LEGALISM AND LICENSE.
WELL THE LEGALISTS ARE THOSE WHO SUPPOSE THAT BY
FOLLOWING SOME LEGAL CODE, BY LIVING BY THE
COMMANDMENTS OF GOD, THEY WILL GAIN ACCEPTANCE INTO
HEAVEN.
NOW I AM FULLY AWARE AND QUITE FAMILIAR WITH THAT
SCHOOL OF THOUGHT BECAUSE I ONCE WAS A PART OF IT
MYSELF.
FOR THE FIRST 24 YEARS OF MY LIFE, I WAS FULLY UNDER
THE IMPRESSION THAT ONE GOT TO HEAVEN BY BEING
GOOD, BY FOLLOWING THE LAW.
YOU CAN THEREFORE WELL IMAGINE THE IMPACT THAT
THOSE TWO VERSES THAT I READ THIS MORNING HAD UPON
ME.
NOW WE KNOW THAT "WHAT THINGS SO EVER THE LAW
SAITH, IT SAYS TO THEM WHO ARE UNDER THE LAW THAT
THEY MAY MAKE THEIR WAY TO HEAVEN".
THAT'S NOT WHAT IT SAYS, IS IT?
IT SAYS TO THOSE WHO ARE UNDER THE LAW: "THAT EVERY
MOUTH MAY BE STOPPED, AND THE WHOLE WORLD MAY BECOME
GUILTY BEFORE GOD (ROMANS 3:19)."
THE LAW WAS NOT GIVEN TO MAKE YOU INNOCENT; THE LAW
WAS GIVEN TO SHOW YOU HOW GUILTY YOU ARE.
HE GOES ON TO SAY, "THEREFORE BY THE DEEDS OF
THE LAW THERE SHALL NO FLESH BE JUSTIFIED IN HIS
SIGHT: FOR BY THE LAW IS THE KNOWLEDGE OF SIN"
AND SO THE LAW CONDEMNS US.
IT DOESN'T SAVE US.
THE LAW SHOWS US OUR VILENESS.
AS MARTIN LUTHER SAID, THE LAW IS A MIRROR THAT SHOWS
US OUR UNCLEANNESS, IT IS A HAMMER THAT SMASHES OUR
SELF-RIGHTEOUSNESS AND HUMBLES US IN THE DUST,
AND IT IS A WHIP THAT DRIVES US TO THE CROSS
FOR MERCY.
NOW THERE ARE SOME RIGHT HERE IN THIS ROOM, I HAVE
NO DOUBT, WHO ARE UNDER THE DELUSION THAT BY
TRYING TO LIVE A GOOD LIFE, BY GOING TO CHURCH,
BY HELPING YOUR NEIGHBOR, BY DOING THE BEST YOU CAN,
THAT YOU ARE PROBABLY GOING TO GET TO HEAVEN
SOMEDAY.
YOU ARE NOT.
LET IT BE SAID AS CLEARLY AND PLAINLY AS IT CAN BE
SAID: SHOULD YOU CONTINUE ON THAT ROAD, YOU WILL
DISCOVER THAT THE BRIDGE IS OUT AND YOU WILL LAND
IN HELL.
"NO FLESH SHALL BE JUSTIFIED BY THE LAW,
FOR BY THE LAW IS THE KNOWLEDGE OF SIN."
NOW OVER AGAINST THAT WE HAVE ANOTHER PRINCIPLE-
A PRINCIPLE WHICH IS ANTITHETICAL TO THE LAW,
A PRINCIPLE WHICH IS UNKNOWN, REALLY,
TO THIS WORLD.
IT IS A PRINCIPLE THAT IS DIVINE.
IT IS THE PRINCIPLE OF GRACE.
GRACE IS THE TOTALLY UNMERITED, AND UNDESERVED
AND UNEARNED FAVOR OF GOD.
IT IS THE MERCY OF GOD GIVEN TO THOSE WHO
POSITIVELY DO NOT DESERVE IT.
IT IS GOD ACCEPTING US NOT BECAUSE OF ANYTHING THAT
WE HAVE DONE, BUT IN SPITE OF EVERYTHING THAT WE HAVE
DONE.
EVERYBODY IN HEAVEN KNOWS ONE THING VERY CLEARLY:
HE OUGHT TO BE IN HELL.
AND IF YOU DON'T KNOW THAT, YOU WILL NEVER SEE
THE INSIDE OF HEAVEN.
HEAVEN IS FOR PEOPLE THAT OUGHT TO GO TO HELL.
YOU SEE, THERE AREN'T ANY OTHER KIND OF PEOPLE
ON THIS PLANET.
"YE ARE CONDEMNED ALREADY", SAID CHRIST.
JESUS CHRIST CAME DOWN FROM HEAVEN BECAUSE WE
WERE ALL ON OUR WAY DOWN TO HELL.
AND HE CAME TO DELIVER THOSE THAT WERE PERISHING.
GRACE IS THE FREE MERCY AND ACCEPTANCE OF GOD
BASED UPON THE FINISHED ATONING WORK OF JESUS
CHRIST.
THE CONTRAST BETWEEN THE TWO IS ENORMOUS.
THE LAW SAYS "DO" AND GRACE SAYS "DONE"
THE LAW SAYS, "PAY ME THAT WHICH THOU OWEST".
GRACE SAYS, "I FREELY FORGIVE THEE OF ALL OF
THY DEBTS".
THE LAW SAYS, "THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH".
AND GRACE SAYS, "THE GIFT OF GOD IS ETERNAL LIFE
THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD".
THE LAW SAYS, "THE SOUL THAT SINNETH, IT SHALL
SURELY DIE".
AND GRACE SAYS, "WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH ON JESUS SHALL
NEVER DIE".
SO SALVATION IS ENTIRELY AND TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY
BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST, FROM
BEGINNING TO END, FROM START TO FINISH, FROM
ETERNITY TO ETERNITY.
BUT THEN, ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE LEGALIST THERE
ARE THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN LICENSE.
THE THIEF OF LICENSE.
WHAT IS LICENSE?
LICENSE IS THE ATTITUDE OF HEART THAT THROWS OFF ALL
RESTRAINTS OF LAW- THE ATTITUDE THAT CHRIST
TALKED ABOUT WHEN HE PUT INTO THE MOUTHS OF SOME IN
ONE OF HIS PARABLES THE WORD, "WE WILL NOT HAVE
THIS MAN TO REIGN OVER US".
THOSE WHO SAY THEY WILL NOT BE UNDER THE AUTHORITY
OF ANY OTHER.
HOW FOOLISH THEY ARE, FOR THE BIBLE MAKES IT VERY
CLEAR THAT THERE ARE ONLY TWO KINDS OF PEOPLE,
REALLY, IN THIS WORLD.
THERE ARE THOSE WHO ARE UNDER THE BONDAGE AND
TYRANNY OF SIN, AND THERE ARE THOSE WHO ARE UNDER
THE BONDAGE TO RIGHTEOUSNESS, WHICH
MEANS, TO PERSONIFY THAT, WE ARE EITHER IN BONDAGE
TO SATAN OR WE ARE IN BONDAGE TO CHRIST.
THERE IS NO MIDDLE GROUND.
THOSE WHO SUPPOSE THEMSELVES TO BE
AUTONOMOUS ARE THE MOST USEFUL SLAVES OF THE
DEVIL.
THOSE WHO SUPPOSE THEMSELVES TO BE
COMPLETELY FREE ARE QUITE USEABLE BY SATAN.
THOSE WHO REJOICE IN THEIR FREE WILL, WHAT DID MARTIN
LUTHER SAY?
HE SAID THE FREE WILL OF FALLEN MEN IS LIKE A DUMB
BEAST RIDDEN BY THE DEVIL WHO TURNS IT WITHER SO
EVER HE WILL.
MY FRIENDS, THERE IS NOTHING ELSE.
WE ARE EITHER UNDER THE DOMINION OF SATAN OR WE
ARE UNDER THE DOMINION OF CHRIST WHO SETS US FREE
FROM BONDAGE TO SATAN, THIS IS WHAT THE ENTIRE
SIXTH CHAPTER OF ROMANS IS ALL ABOUT.
HAVING BEEN SET FREE FROM THE BONDAGE OF SIN WE
BECOME THE SERVANTS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.
AS LUTHER ALSO SAID, "HE IS MOST FREE WHO IS THE
BOND SLAVE OF JESUS CHRIST".
NOW, I HAVE TALKED TO MANY OF THOSE, BY THE WAY, THE
THEOLOGICAL TERM FOR THOSE WHO FEEL THAT THE LAW HAS
NOTHING TO DO WITH CHRISTIANS.
BY THE WAY, THE FIRST HERESY TRIAL EVER CARRIED
ON IN AMERICA OVER 300 YEARS AGO WAS AGAINST A
MAN WHO WAS CHARGED WITH THIS HERESY.
IT'S CALLED ANTINOMIANISM.
NOMAS IS THE GREEK WORK FOR LAW.
ANTINOMAS IS TO BE AGAINST THE LAW.
A PERSON WHO IS ANTINOMIAN IS A PERSON WHO FEELS THAT
THE LAW HAS BEEN DONE AWAY WITH AND "I HAVE NOTHING
TO DO WITH IT ANY LONGER".
WELL I HAVE TALKED TO NUMBERS OF THOSE PEOPLE
AND I HAVE TALKED TO GROUPS, AND I'VE SAID TO
THEM THIS: IF THE LAW IS GONE AWAY COMPLETELY, THEN
I WANT YOU TO NAME ONE THING THAT YOU AS A
CHRISTIAN COULD DO THAT WOULD PLEASE GOD THAT IS
NOT OBEYING HIS LAW.
I HAVE ASKED FOR 25 OR 30 YEARS I'VE ASKED PEOPLE
THAT QUESTION.
I'VE NEVER HAD ANYBODY COME UP WITH AN ANSWER.
OH YES THERE WAS ONE PERSON WHO SUBMITTED AN
ANSWER AND SHE THOUGHT THIS WAS A BRILLIANT
RESPONSE.
SHE SAID, "WELL, WE COULD LOVE GOD".
LOVE GOD?
HAVE WE FORGOT JESUS SAID THE FIRST AND GREATEST
COMMANDMENT IS THIS: "THOU SHALT LOVE THE LORD THY
GOD WITH ALL OF THE HEART, MIND, STRENGTH AND SOUL".
NOT ONLY IS THAT A COMMANDMENT, IT IS THE
FIRST AND GREATEST OF ALL THE COMMANDMENTS.
OF COURSE, WE SHOULD LOVE GOD, BUT THAT IS A
COMMANDMENT.
AND I WOULD ASK YOU: CAN YOU THINK OF ANYTHING THAT
YOU MIGHT DO THAT WOULD PLEASE YOUR HEAVENLY
FATHER OTHER THAN OBEYING HIS LAWS?
LET ME TELL YOU THIS.
GOD IS DISPLEASED WITH PEOPLE WHO TRY TO INVENT
THINGS, AND THERE HAVE BEEN THOSE IN THE CHURCH
WHO HAVE TRIED TO INVENT THINGS TO DO, IN HUMAN
INVENTION AND WISDOM, WHICH THEY THINK MIGHT
PLEASE GOD.
GOD SAYS IN HIS WORD, "WHO HATH COMMANDED THEE TO
THUS TRAMPLE MY COURTS?
I DID NOT COMMAND YOU TO DO THAT.
WHY ARE YOU DOING IT?"
THERE IS NOT ONE SINGLE THING THAT YOU COULD THINK
OR FEEL OR SAY OR DO THAT WOULD PLEASE GOD OTHER
THAN KEEPING HIS COMMANDMENTS.
WHAT DID JESUS SAY?
"IF YOU LOVE ME, FORGET MY COMMANDMENTS?"
THAT'S NOT WHAT HE SAID.
I WOULD HOPE EVERYBODY HERE KNOWS THAT, BUT THESE
DAYS, YOU CAN'T BE SURE.
HE SAID, OF COURSE, "IF YE LOVE ME, KEEP MY
COMMANDMENTS".
WHAT DO WE FIND HERE IN THIS PASSAGE OF PAUL WHERE
HE JUST HAS CONCLUDED THAT WE ARE SAVED BY FAITH
ALONE WITHOUT THE DEEDS OF THE LAW?
WELL, LOOK TO THE 31ST VERSE.
JUST GO AHEAD THREE MORE VERSES AND YOU SEE THIS.
"DO WE THEN MAKE VOID THE LAW THROUGH FAITH?"
AND WHAT DOES THE ANTINOMIAN SAY?
"YEA, AND AMEN, WE MAKE VOID THE LAW.
WE GET AWAY FROM THE LAW.
WE'VE DONE IT IN.
WE DON'T HAVE THE LAW ANYMORE.
WE CAN DO ANYTHING OUR LITTLE SINFUL HEART
PLEASES.
WE'VE BEEN SET FREE TO BE LAWLESS".
IT'S INTERESTING THAT THE BIBLE DESCRIBES THAT FINAL
AGE BEFORE CHRIST COMES BACK AS AN AGE OF
LAWLESSNESS.
BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT PAUL SAID.
READ IT, MY FRIENDS.
"DO WE THEN MAKE VOID THE LAW THROUGH FAITH?"
GOD FORBID.
ME GENOITO, WHICH IN GREEK IS A VERY STRONG
STATEMENT- "LET IT NOT BE SPOKEN, THINK IT NOT,
SAY IT NOT."
YEA, WE ESTABLISH THE LAW.
AS IN THE OLD TESTAMENT PROPHECY OF THIS AGE, WHEN
WE WOULD BE SPRINKLED WITH CLEAN WATER AND BE MADE
CLEAN, AND GOD SAYS, "I WILL WRITE MY COMMANDMENTS
ON THE FLESHLY TABLETS OF THEIR HEART", NOT JUST
UPON TABLETS OF STONE, BUT UPON OUR HEARTS, THAT AS
LOVING SONS AND DAUGHTERS, WE WILL DELIGHT TO PLEASE
OUR HEAVENLY FATHER BY FOLLOWING HIS
COMMANDMENTS.
HAS THE LAW BEEN ANNULLED?
GOD FORBID.
LOOK ALL THE WAY TO THE VERY LAST CHAPTER OF THE
BIBLE, MY FRIENDS, YOU SEE IT STILL THERE.
IF YOU LOOK IN 12:17 YOU READ ABOUT THE SEED WHICH
KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD AND HAVE THE TESTIMONY
OF JESUS CHRIST.
OR IN THE 14TH CHAPTER, "HERE IS THE PATIENCE OF
THE SAINTS: HERE ARE THEY THAT KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS
OF GOD, AND THE FAITH OF JESUS.
OR TO THE VERY LAST CHAPTER OF THE BIBLE,
CHAPTER 22 OF REVELATION, VERSE 14, "BLESSED ARE
THEY THAT DO HIS COMMANDMENTS".
ARE YOU AN ANTINOMIAN?
DO YOU DESPISE HIS LAW?
"O HOW I LOVE THY LAW", SAID DAVID.
"I MEDITATE UPON IT DAY AND NIGHT."
MAY GOD, BY HIS INCREDIBLE GRACE, WHO HAS SAVED US
AND WHO KEEPS US BY THAT GRACE, UNMERITEDLY, AND WE
KNOW THAT WE WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO KEEP THAT LAW IN
ANY WAY THAT COULD POSSIBLY MAKE US
ACCEPTABLE TO GOD.
BUT OUT OF THE LOVE THAT HE WORKS IN OUR HEARTS, WE
WILL STRIVE TO PLEASE HIM.
MAY GOD DO THAT WORK IN EVERY ONE OF OUR HEARTS.
LET US PRAY.
FATHER, THERE ARE SOME HERE TODAY WHO STILL ARE
WANDERING AROUND IN THE DESERT OF LEGALISM, WHO
ARE STRIVING TO CLIMB THE MOUNTAIN OF LAW TO MAKE
THEMSELVES ACCEPTABLE TO THEE.
MAY THEY HEAR THY WORD AGAIN THAT THERE IS NONE
THAT KEEPETH IT, THAT WE ARE TOGETHER BECOME
UNPROFITABLE.
MAY THEY CAST THEMSELVES AT THE FOOT OF THE CROSS
AND SAY, "O LORD JESUS CHRIST THAT FOR WHICH
YOU ARE DYING IS MY VIOLATIONS OF THE LAW.
DAY AFTER DAY, HOUR AFTER HOUR IN THOUGHT, IN WORD,
IN DEED, IN OMISSION AND COMMISSION, I HAVE
VIOLATED ALL OF YOUR COMMANDMENTS AND NOW STAND
GUILTY BEFORE THEE WITH MY HAND OVER MY MOUTH AND MY
FACE IN THE DUST, I CONFESS O GOD THAT
I AM A REBELLIOUS LAWBREAKER IN THY SIGHT.
AND I PRAY THAT THOU WOULD HAVE MERCY UPON ME, THAT
THOU WOULD WASH ME RIGHT NOW WITH THE BLOOD OF
CHRIST AND MAKE ME WHITER THAN SNOW.
COME INTO MY HEART LORD JESUS AND FILL ME WITH
YOUR SPIRIT AND WRITE YOUR LAWS UPON THE FLESHLY
TABLETS OF MY HEART THAT I MAY DELIGHT TO KEEP THEM
BECAUSE I KNOW THAT I HAVE BEEN ACCEPTED IN SPITE OF
THEM AND NOT BECAUSE OF THEM, BUT BECAUSE OF YOUR
CROSS.
SO I REJOICE, O CHRIST, TO PLEASE THEE.
HELP ME TO LOVE THEE AND TO DESIRE ABOVE ALL ELSE
TO DO THOSE THINGS WHICH WOULD MAKE THEE HAPPY.
I PRAY IT IN THY NAME.
AMEN.

OBJECTIONS ABOUT THEM.
