Scriptural Confirmations # 4

  
/ 101  
  

4. 2. The Son of God (Romans 1:3-4).

Called after Jesus Christ, Christians (Romans 1:6) through the faith of Jesus Christ (Romans 3:22).

Faith in Christ. Through Jesus Christ we have peace toward God, and to God we have access by faith into this grace, and we glory in the hope of the glory of God (Romans 5:1-2).

By Jesus Christ were we reconciled to God (Romans 5:10,11).

As by one man sin entered into the world, so by the justice of one are we justified (Romans 5:12, 13, 15, 18-19).

There is no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit, in order that the justification of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the spirit (Romans 8:1-4). Christ is at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us (Romans 8:34).

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, distress, hunger, death, angels, principalities, height, depth, etc. (Romans 8:35-39)?

From the fathers Christ is according to the flesh, who is over all; God blessed forever. Amen (Romans 9:5).

Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, shall be saved (Romans 10:13).

We are one body in Christ; all are members having different gifts according to grace (Romans 12:5-6). The gifts which belong to different members are enumerated in a long series (verses 6, 13).

Put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 13:14).

Whether we live, we live in the Lord; whether we die, we die in the Lord; therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord's. For to this end Christ both died and rose and lived again that He might be Lord both of the dead and of the living (Romans 14:8-9).

It is written, I live, saith the Lord, for every knee shall bow to Me, and every tongue shall confess to God (Romans 14:11). Isaiah saith, there shall be a root of Jesse, and He that shall rise to rule over the nations; in Him shall the nations hope (Romans 15:12).

The Gospel of Christ (Romans 15:19-21).

Chosen and tried in the Lord, in Christ: to work and labor in the Lord (Romans 16:8-13).

Virgin

  
This painting by Richard Cook  of the newborn baby Jesus, with Mary and Joseph, evokes the spiritual power of this long-awaited advent.

The word 'virgin' shows up in many places, where it symbolizes the Lord's kingdom and the church and therefore anyone who is a kingdom of the Lord, or who is a church. (Arcana Coelestia 3081)

In Genesis 24:16, a virgin signifies purity from all falsity.

In Leviticus 21:13 and Ezekiel 44:22, virgins signify the celestial church and people of the church who love the neighbor from their love of the Lord. That this might be represented in the Jewish Church, the priests were enjoined to marry virgins or the widow of another priest. (Arcana Coelestia 2362[4])

'Virgins,' as in Revelation 14:4, signify people who love truths because they are truths, so from a spiritual affection.

'Virgin' signifies the church as a spouse, who desires to be conjoined to the Lord, and to become a wife. The church that desires this union loves truths because they are truths. When life lived according to truths conjoins. This is why Israel, Zion, and Jerusalem, in the Word, are called 'virgins' and 'daughters' because they represent the church.
