Classic Christianity – Book of Romans P01 (09-30-24)

Paul Was Called by Jesus to be an Apostle ~ God’s Messenger

~ “Go!” said the Lord. “This man is My chosen instrument to carry My name before the Gentiles and their kings, AND before the people of ISRAEL. I will show him how much he must suffer for My name.” Acts 9:15
~ Note that Paul was not just an apostle to the Gentiles, but he was also an apostle to the people of Israel. While many discount him as only being an apostle to the Gentiles, that would be a wrong understanding. For the Word of God says “AND before the people of Israel.” And details matter in everything. For Paul spoke to Both Gentiles and Israelites in regards to the New Covenant and the Word of GOD, JESUS being raised from the dead. This is key point for our understanding today. We don’t want to miss seeing that and understanding this key TRUTH. Paul was an apostle to BOTH Gentiles and Israelites.

The apostle Paul was also a big time Truth teller, and caused a ruckus wherever he went in regards to the word of God. Paul was given wisdom and understanding directly from God, and He explained what was promised beforehand through His prophets in the Word of God regarding Jesus, by His resurrection from the Dead. Paul goes on to explain in His writings what those things mean from the Old Testament. He explained in great detail the things of God and the New Covenant we all are under today. And as such, there were many people that got upset with Paul, because to them, the things that Paul was saying did not line up with their interpretations of the scriptures or their traditions handed down by men from the past.

It’s no different today, if a person speaks boldly about the New Covenant, the Finality of the Cross, the Forgiveness issue is Finished, The Reality of the Resurrection, Taking a Closer Look at Law & Grace, and really hits home on those topics, most religionists will not like you because it will not match their understanding or their traditions. Many will even want you to sugar coat the message of the Cross and not speak boldly in regards to the Lies of LAW keeping and simply not speak against those that pretend they are law keepers. And essentially just overlook that. But here is the thing, Paul never backed down in his strong stance against all of Satan’s lies. And there were many back then when Paul wrote the book of Romans, but there are even more so now. Because the lies have been built on top of one another due to not following the teachings of the New Covenant and the finality of the Cross, and still many people do not realize what is going on today. They lean on their own understanding of things, and hardly preach about the key foundational things of God. And the reason is, because they themselves are most likely not saved. It’s the blind leading the blind today in “church” settings, for they bring to themselves what their itching ears want to hear.

Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, and set apart for the gospel of God— the gospel He promised beforehand through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures, regarding His Son, who was a descendant of David according to the flesh, and who through the Spirit of holiness was declared with power to be the Son of God by His resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord.

Through Him and on behalf of His name, we received grace and apostleship to call all those among the Gentiles to the obedience that comes from faith. And you also are among those who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.

To all in Rome who are loved by God and called to be saints:

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Romans 1:1-7

Here is where Saul meets Jesus on his journey to Damascus:

Meanwhile, Saul was still breathing out murderous threats against the disciples of the Lord. He approached the high priest and requested letters to the synagogues in Damascus, so that if he found any men or women belonging to the Way, he could bring them as prisoners to Jerusalem.

As Saul drew near to Damascus on his journey, suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him. He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me?”

“Who are You, Lord?” Saul asked.

“I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,” He replied. “Now get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.”

The men traveling with Saul stood there speechless. They heard the voice but did not see anyone. Saul got up from the ground, but when he opened his eyes he could not see a thing. So they led him by the hand into Damascus. For three days he was without sight, and he did not eat or drink anything.

In Damascus there was a disciple named Ananias. The Lord spoke to him in a vision, “Ananias!”

“Here I am, Lord,” he answered.

“Get up!” the Lord told him. “Go to the house of Judas on Straight Street and ask for a man from Tarsus named Saul, for he is praying. In a vision he has seen a man named Ananias come and place his hands on him to restore his sight.”

But Ananias answered, “Lord, many people have told me about this man and all the harm he has done to Your saints in Jerusalem. And now he is here with authority from the chief priests to arrest all who call on Your name.”

“Go!” said the Lord. “This man is My chosen instrument to carry My name before the Gentiles and their kings, and before the people of Israel. I will show him how much he must suffer for My name.”

So Ananias went to the house, and when he arrived, he placed his hands on Saul. “Brother Saul,” he said, “the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you were coming here, has sent me so that you may see again and be filled with the Holy Spirit.”

At that instant, something like scales fell from Saul’s eyes, and his sight was restored. He got up and was baptized, and after taking some food, he regained his strength. And he spent several days with the disciples in Damascus. Acts 9:1-19

Pray to God:

Do you really want to know the WHOLE Truth of what is going on today?

“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.” Matthew 7:7

Lord Jesus, teach me the truth of the world today and give me the wisdom to know the truth and identify the lies of the devil. Thank you God.”

~ “And so we had Paul there that what where the prejudice was coming was in the teaching. There had been hundreds and hundreds of years of teaching as to the interpretation of the Old Testament, and that was done by the Pharisees and the Sadducees and a governing body called the Sanhedrin. And so those people were the ones who got together and became the authority on the interpretation of the word of God. Now what they did, as an example was take the law, which was really given in order to have civil obedience, because the Hebrews were left out of Egypt, millions of them the slaves, and they had to have laws, or they would have lived in total chaos. And so he gave them laws, Thou shall not kill, thou shall not steal. He gave them dietary laws because they were going to be living in a desert, and you didn’t have General Electric refrigerators back in those days. So there were dietary laws to keep them from killing themselves with food. There were all kinds of things that were given to the Hebrews for really social reasons. The interpretation was the Pharisees and them would take those laws and make them holy laws. In other words, these are things that you follow if you want to be right with God. It wasn’t for our benefit. It was so that you’ll be right with God. And they took those laws and they made their own religion out of them, called the Hebrew religion.” ~ Bob George

Let’s all turn to the book of Romans. I really do encourage all of you to bring your Bibles with you. Most of you do, but it’s finally important that we learned that this book is not something to sit in some kind of a prime place in your house, but it’s a workbook. The Bible is a letter from God to you and me. It’s a love letter, and that’s why I wonder sometimes if people would say they don’t have any interest. I say, Well, you know, if you had somebody that you were in love with that wrote you a letter. I guarantee you’d read it upside down, backward and forwards, and digest it continually so that you could pass it on to other people. And it’s the same thing that we have here. We have a love letter from God to us. And the apostle Paul was the apostle that wrote the majority of the New Testament that we have in our hands today, and is a very, very special human being. We’re going to see that Paul is, is going to be writing to the saints in Rome. Has not been there as yet, but he is writing to them. Paul is called the apostle to the Gentiles, and the Roman church was basically Gentile, whereas in the other areas of ministry, they started off with the Hebrew people, and then the Gentiles began picking up on the gospel. It’s strange, isn’t it, back in those days, the early Christians were all Hebrews. And if a Gentile came to Christ, it was, wow. A Gentile came to Christ. Today, the majority are Gentiles. And if a Hebrew comes to Christ, we say, Wow, that’s how things can change.

Well, let’s pick up with the first chapter. You have the name Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ. And so let’s turn back for a moment to chapter nine in the book of Acts. And in chapter nine of the book of Acts, we’re going to see where did this apostle come from? What is his story? And in the ninth chapter of the book of Acts, you see the story of a man named Saul. That was his Hebrew name. It was customary back in those days for the Hebrews to have a Hebrew name, and then many times would have a Gentile name as well, attached to an individual. Paul’s Hebrew name was Saul, and it talks about the fact in the ninth chapter that Saul was breathing out murderous threats against the Lord’s disciples, and he went to the high priest and asked them for letters to the synagogue in Damascus, so that if he found any there who belonged to the way, and that was the name of early Christians was the way. Jesus identified himself, did he not as I am, the WAY and the TRUTH and the LIFE and so and whether men or women that he might take them as prisoners to Jerusalem. So he was a man that wanted to take anyone who was claiming Jesus Christ, as a prisoner. Now, folks, you look at this type of thing and you see, what is the problem with this man called Jesus? And the only answer that you could say to that was nothing. It’s not him. It’s what he’s teaching. So the conflict in religion was that all of the Hebrews back in those days were really orthodox. You didn’t have the conservative arm of Hebrewism back then. That was all Orthodox Hebrews. And there were leaders to those Orthodox Hebrews, and there’s a lot of controversy, is there not today, in regard to the film that has been made on Jesus, and there’s an uproar among the Jewish people that, oh, this is going to cause people to have prejudice against the Jews. Well, you see, that doesn’t make any sense. Then quit talking about Hitler, because that makes the Gentiles look bad. You know, it’s that kind of reasoning. It’s nonsensical, but it’s been going on for 2000 years where the Hebrew people, and not all of them, but are talking about a lot of the leaders, are scared to death, and they’re rightfully so, because there’s been a terrific amount of persecution to the Hebrew, but scared to death that there’s going to be persecution, because they’ve been called Jesus killers. Well, in the first place, anyone who called a Jew a Jesus killer doesn’t know the Bible from one end to the other, because in essence, it was the Gentiles who carried out the execution on Jesus, but the people behind it were the Jews. So who killed Jesus? Gentiles and Jews, that means you and me. In reality, who killed Jesus was me. He died for my sins and for your sins. So in reality, the reason he died was because of you’re and my sins. So anyone who is looking down on the Hebrew people and saying, Oh, you are Jesus killers or people that do not understand the Scripture at all, this should never have ever been done or said. Neither is an anti semitic attitude consistent with being a born again believer. There is no room for prejudice in the heart of a person who is born again period. There should be no prejudice period in a heart of a person that has been renewed by the blood of Christ, Jesus, whether it to be Hebrews, whether it to be blacks, whether it be yellow, whether it to be whites, regardless, there should be no prejudice in our hearts. People are people. We were created Adam in the image of God, which is where all of we came from, born in the image of of Adam, but created in the image of God. And so there should be no prejudice in our hearts if we’re truly born again people.

And so we had Paul there that what where the prejudice was coming was in the teaching. There had been hundreds and hundreds of years of teaching as to the interpretation of the Old Testament, and that was done by the Pharisees and the Sadducees and a governing body called the Sanhedrin. And so those people were the ones who got together and became the authority on the interpretation of the word of God. Now what they did, as an example was take the law, which was really given in order to have civil obedience, because the Hebrews were left out of Egypt, millions of them the slaves, and they had to have laws, or they would have lived in total chaos. And so he gave them laws, Thou shall not kill, thou shall not steal. He gave them dietary laws because they were going to be living in a desert, and you didn’t have General Electric refrigerators back in those days. So there were dietary laws to keep them from killing themselves with food. There were all kinds of things that were given to the Hebrews for really social reasons. The interpretation was the Pharisees and them would take those laws and make them holy laws. In other words, these are things that you follow if you want to be right with God. It wasn’t for our benefit. It was so that you’ll be right with God. And they took those laws and they made their own religion out of them, called the Hebrew religion.

Now today, the average Jew doesn’t have a religion. The average Jew is either atheistic or agnostic at the best. I’m talking about the average person. Now. More and more they’re getting back into the synagogues and this type of thing because of more liberal type theology. I was talking to some Jewish friends of ours that we’ve grown to know and to love, and we’re just slowly talking about Jesus. They have an openness, but there’s still this resistance. And I was talking to him the other day, and I asked him, I said, Are you an Orthodox Jew? I knew they weren’t. I said, Are you orthodox? No. Well, why not? Why aren’t you orthodox? Well, because they got all these rules and regulations and all this dumb stuff that they have and everything else. And I say, Do you realize that everything you’re talking about is what Jesus said? Do you realize that everything you’re rebelling against, not rebelling but against, is what Jesus was against? That’s what you’re saying, is exactly what Jesus said. He went into those people and said, You’re a bunch of white washed sepulchers. You’re clean on the outside, but you’re dirty on the inside. And do you realize that you’re just saying what Jesus said? That’s a shocker, folks, but it’s a great introduction for people who are Jewish. Ask them, are you orthodox? If you’re not? Why not? And then tell them, huh, that’s just what we believe.

Now we had Paul, who was an avid Orthodox Hebrew. He was called the Teacher of teachers. He was the upcoming guy on the street. He was well known. He was educated, I believe, probably one of the most brilliant men that ever lived. He knew languages. He knew history, he knew everything. Paul was a genius as far as a human being is concerned. And Paul was adamant against this teaching that all of a sudden had come on the scene about this man bucking up against this orthodox teaching and saying that you’re dirty on the on the inside clean on the outside, saying things like, it’s not what a man puts in a mouth that defiles a man, it’s what proceeds out of his heart. You don’t have a drinking problem. You got a heart problem. That was not good. They didn’t like that. They liked religion, and that’s all this was religion. We go we honor the Sabbath. We do this. We don’t eat this food. Everything is around what they don’t do. 600 and some laws that they had built on top of the ones God gave us, and we are trying to be obedient to all of those. And when you’ve got someone like that and you think you’re obedient, you’re judging the daylights out of somebody who you think is not obedient. Is that right or wrong? And so Paul was very, very judgmental, wanting to take Christians as prisoners to Jerusalem.

As he neared Damascus on his journey. Suddenly, a light from Heaven flashed around him when he fell to the ground and he heard a voice say to him, Saul. Saul, why do you persecute me? Paul was smart enough to know who was talking to him, because he said, Who are you Lord? He knew who was talking to him. I’m Jesus. Would that not be a shock, guys, this is the man that I’m out trying to kill anyone who says they’re a follower of. This guy that was hung on a cross and they claim was raised from the dead. But you know, we made some arrangements to make that story not real good. We bribed some people, whatever else it took. But I hate these followers of this man called Jesus. And here’s this guy saying, Saul, Saul. And he’s saying, Who is it, Lord? And he said, That’s Jesus. I think I’d be a little shocked, don’t you, especially when you knew God was talking to you. I’m Jesus. Not only am I Jesus, I’m the one you’re persecuting. Now get up and go into the city and you’ll be told what you must do. Isn’t that something? I’m Jesus. Go into the city and do what I tell you to do. Jesus certainly was exercising and letting him know who was in charge. Paul, you may think you are, but I’m in charge, so I want you to go into the city and do what I’m telling you to do. Wouldn’t that been hard for see? I’ve been telling everybody what to do. Lord, now you’re wanting to. Now, the men traveling with Paul said they stood there speechless. No wonder. They heard the sound, but they didn’t see anyone. So they heard but they didn’t see. Saul got up from the ground, and when he opened his eyes, he could see nothing. So they led him by the hand into Damascus. For three days, he was blind. He did not eat or drink anything. In Damascus, there was a disciple named Ananias, and the Lord called him into a vision. He said, Ananias, Yes, Lord. He answered. The Lord told him go to the house of Judas on straight street and ask for a man from Tarsus named Saul, for he is praying. So as for Saul, Saul is praying. What do you suppose he’s praying? Lord, give me a Cadillac? I’ll guarantee what he’s praying, Lord, I have been confused someplace down the line, you’re going to have to show me what truth is. I believed what I was doing was as truthful as anything in the world, and I was tenacious to go out and to persecute people against this man called Jesus. And now I’ve been met with this man named Jesus, and he told me to come in here. What’s truth? Greatest prayer you and I will ever pray, Lord, show me truth.

And so he says that go into there and and place your hands on him to restore his sight. Lord Ananias answered, I’ve heard many reports about this man and all the harm he’s done to your saints in Jerusalem. You’re going to hear this guy saying, Lord, you want me to go who? He has come out here with authority from the chief priest to arrest all who call on your name. This is the mean guy you’re telling me to go too. But the Lord said to Ananias, go this man. Now, here’s the key. Is my chosen instrument to carry my name before the Gentiles and their kings and before the people of Israel. I will show him how much he must suffer in my name. Now here my friend. Is the declaration from God concerning Paul and his mission. The mission of Paul by the Lord is, this is my chosen instrument. I have chosen you, Paul. I have chosen him to go to the Gentiles and to the kings of the Gentiles and before the people of Israel, and I’ll show him how much he’s going to have to suffer in my name, Ananias went to the house and entered in placing his hands on Saul. He said, Brother, Saul, the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you were coming here, has sent me so that you will see again and be filled with the Holy Spirit. And immediately something like scales fell from Saul’s eyes, and he could see again, and he got up and was baptized, and after taking some food, he regained his strength. Paul’s conversion.

You know, I don’t know about you, but many people feel that a conversion experience has to be like the apostle Paul’s, where you see some light from heaven and see some unique experience taking place. Nothing to be farther from the truth. But In Paul’s case, he had to get his attention, and he got his attention, and he got his intention in such a way that Paul knew that there was a calling upon his life, and that calling was he is a chosen instrument to carry the name of God to the Gentiles and to their kings, and before the people of Israel, that was his calling. That’s why he was alive.

Now you’re going to see if you turn over to Acts 11 during this period of time. Paul raised some havoc there in Jerusalem as a born again believer. Did you ever do that when you’re first born again? Cause some havoc among people? Well, he caused a bunch of it. And then remember, he had to be led over the wall, and he disappeared, literally, for 18 years. And you say, Well, what in the world was God doing with Paul for 18 years? He just said, I’ve got a calling on your life to go to the Gentiles and proclaim His good news. What was he doing in those 18 years? Knocking legalism out of him. How many of us who have grown up in a terrifically legalistic environment when you come to Christ, takes years and years and years for God to push that out of you? And we have people very close to us who talk about that thing. In my particular case, I was never that deeply involved in legalism. I grew up in a Presbyterian Church where I heard nothing. And I’m not saying that’s all Presbyterian churches, but the ones I went to, you heard nothing. Bibles were something you never opened. They were something to kind of look at, but never opened. So I didn’t know anything. So I was fresh meat. When I came to Christ, I had nothing to unlearn. I knew nothing. I knew Jesus was the Son of God. Had no idea what that meant. I knew all of those things intellectually, but didn’t know what they meant. So the issue here is there are many other people who grew up in so called evangelical environments that was full of legalism. And it takes time, and some are worse than others. And you take some who literally try to be Hebrews in regard to their legalistic observance, they’ve taken all the Hebrews the laws of the Hebrews, and they’re trying. It’s kind of like, well, the Hebrews couldn’t do it, but watch my smoke. But the issue is, they can’t do it either, but they were steeped in legalism. Now they come to Christ. Does that legalism just pour off of you immediately? No way. It takes years, many times, to push that legalism out of your thinking process and to walk strictly according to the grace of God. And so I believe that those years that Paul spent in Tarsus was the Lord dealing with him in such a way as to teach him the magnitude of the grace of God, and in so doing, pushing out the legalistic belief system that he was in.

Well, they sent Barnabas, the man of encouragement. That’s his name. He was the encourager. So you can understand why they sent Barnabas to find Paul. And they sent Barnabas and in verse 25 chapter 11, Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Paul, and when he found him, he brought him to Antioch, so full of so for for a whole year, Barnabas and Saul met with the church and taught a great number of people, and the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch, that was the first time that they were referred to as Christians.

You’re then going to see that Paul, later on, his name was changed to Paul, and that was an interesting thing is over in chapter 13, you go down to verse nine, and you’re going to see there where it was always Barnabas and Saul Barnabas and Saul Barnabas and Saul. And then in verse nine, it says, then Saul, who was also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, looked straight at Lemmas and said, you’re a child of the devil and an enemy of everything that is right. You’re full of kinds of all kinds of deceit and trickery, trickery. You will never stop perverting the right ways of the Lord. Now, the hand of the Lord is against you. You’re going to be blind, and for a time you’ll be unable to see the light of the sun. Now that is the first time that we see that Saul was named to Paul. Was called Paul, but from that point on, all you ever hear is Paul never Saul used again. So we look at that as a little bit of history behind who this man called Paul, Saul of Tarsus later named Paul the minister to the Gentiles.

Now let’s pick up back in Romans. Now we have a little bit of background on him, Paul. Now he says a servant of Jesus Christ, the real word there is slave. It’s been translated a servant, but the Greek word is slave, and it’s a bond slave. So he says, a servant of Jesus Christ. And what that means is a bond slave by nature. And so we all friends, are slaves. You’re either a slave to sin or we’re a slave to Him, but we’re all slaves in one condition or another. I think if you take the word sin and use it like you would a name, Jim, Bob, Sin, and it says that sin is your owner. And when Paul, before he was a child of God, was a slave, it says to sin, sin owned me. He was my master. Sin bound me up with such tight cords that are so strong that they can only be broken by death. That’s how sin gets a hold of you and me. That’s what we’re born into. That’s why Paul is able to say in Romans seven the things I want to do I don’t do. Sin has me in its evil grasp, and all of us are born into this world in Adam, and our master is sin. Just call it what you want to call it a name Satan. It’s sin, and we are mastered by that sin. Till the things we want to do, we don’t and we can’t, and the things that we don’t want to do, we do them anyway.

Now, when sin is your master, or whatever is your master, you’re going to obey that irrespective of your own desires or interest, you’re swallowed up in the will of your master, and whether you want to or not you are obeying your master. Now, people think that’s independence, and people say, Oh, I’m independent. No, you’re not. There is no such thing as an independent person. You’re just dependent. You’re either dependent upon God or you’re dependent upon sin as your master, one of the two, no one is independent. We just think we’re independent. But no one is independent. You were born into this world to be dependent, not independent. And when you refuse to be dependent upon who you’re supposed to be dependent upon, God, you are forced to live in dependency on something, and what you turn to is the world, people, places and things. And so he says now that what happened was that by birth, I was a slave to sin, but through regeneration, through being born again, I’m now a bond servant to Jesus. A bondservant. Was one who became a servant, voluntarily, a servant under the Roman rule, a person who was a bond servant that was a position of high esteem. And Paul is saying, I have now become, through spiritual regeneration, a bond servant to Jesus Christ. I was a slave to sin. Now I’m a slave to Jesus, two different slaves, but still a slave. Now that’s translated servant in the NIV. Don’t know what your translation is, but the real translation is that of a bond slave by nature belonging to Jesus Christ. That is exactly what the translation is. I Paul a bond slave by nature who belongs to Jesus Christ.

Now he says that position of slavery is a position of high esteem, as I mentioned in the Roman rule that was a position of high esteem, and yet, notice that he put that, that I’m a slave, before he put that I’m apostle, which means, in essence, I regard the fact that my position that God gave to me as a slave is higher than the position of that of an apostle, that first and foremost, I’m a slave, and because I’m a slave, I’m an apostle. I’m going to carry out this job of apostleship. Now, again, if you remember, what we went back to was, was the fact that Paul was saying that this man was my chosen instrument. So God said I chose this man for this assignment, and Paul recognizes the truth of that, that I am a servant of Jesus Christ. I’m a slave by nature belonging to Christ, and I’m called to be an apostle. Now, folks, we think many times of an apostle as a follower of Christ, or one of the early followers of Christ, and indeed that is true. But a better understanding, I think, of this word apostle, or apostleship is an ambassador, because that really spells out what the role is that Paul was called to. An ambassador is someone who is called to represent another party in another place and with a specific mission and with the authority to carry out that that mission, if you and I were were named, we would be named by the President, by someone in a higher authority over and above us, be named by them to be an ambassador, to go to France and to represent the United States of America in that country. Is that correct or not? We would have the authority to act in that capacity. We would have all of the things necessary to speak for the President of the United States. We would be a representative of the President of United States and the country that he is president of in a foreign land. Now that is the picture that we need to get in regard to this thing called apostle.
