7 Have the roots [of your being] firmly and

A Midrash on
Pesach – Dr. Howard Morgan
“ During the
Passover season, God says to you “I will judge all the false gods that seek to
control your life, just like I judged the false gods of Egypt that enslaved my
people.”
Deborah’s Drash Commentary:
What Yeshua Did For You!
Part I

now God’s child for you are born again of the
incorruptible seed of the WORD OF GOD which liveth and abideth
FOREVER.................................1 Pet. 1:23

Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the
word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
Incorruptible
INCORRUPT'IBLE, a.
1. That cannot corrupt or decay;
not admitting of corruption. Thus gold, glass, mercury, &c., are
incorruptible. Spirits are supposed to be incorruptible.
Our bodies shall be changed into
incorruptible and immortal substances.
2. That cannot be bribed;
inflexibly just and upright.
2. Forgiven of all
your sins and washed in the
Blood........................ Eph 1:7, Heb 9:14 Col. 1:14, 1 John 1:9 & 2:12
Eph 1:7 In
whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according
to the riches of his grace;
Heb 9:14
How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit
offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to
serve the living God?
Col 1:14 In
whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
1 John 1:9
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins,
and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
1 John 2:12
I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you
for his name's sake.

FORGIVE, v.t. forgiv'. pret. forgave; pp.
forgiven. [L. remitto. See Give.]
1. To pardon; to remit, as an
offense or debt; to overlook an offense, and treat the offender as not guilty.
The original and proper phrase is to forgive the offense, to send it away, to
reject it, that is, not to impute it, [put it to] the offender. But by an easy
transition, we also use the phrase, to forgive the person offending.
3. He made you
A new creation.............................................................11

presence specially resides; the church as a collective body. Eph 2.

for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

We call a man holy,when his heart is conformed in some degree to the image of
God, and his life is regulated by the divine precepts. Hence, holy is used as
nearly synonymous with good, pious, godly.

being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were
healed.
Dead
DEAD,
1. Deprived or destitute of life;
that state of a being, animal or vegetable, in which the organs of motion and
life have ceased to perform their functions, and have become incapable of
performing them, or of being restored to a state of activity.
Sin
SIN, n.
1. The voluntary departure of a
moral agent from a known rule of rectitude or duty, prescribed by God; any
voluntary transgression of the divine law, or violation of a divine command; a
wicked act; iniquity. Sin is either a positive act in which a known divine law
is violated, or it is the voluntary neglect to obey a positive divine command,
or a rule of duty clearly implied in such command. Sin comprehends not action
only, but neglect of known duty, all evil thoughts purposes, words and desires,
whatever is contrary to God's commands or law. 1 John 3. Mat 15. James 4.
Sinner neither enjoy the pleasures of nor the peace of piety. Among divines,
sin is original or actual. Actual sin, above defined, is the act of a moral
agent in violating a known rule of duty. Original sin, as generally understood,
is native depravity of heart to the divine will, that corruption of nature of
deterioration of the moral character of man, which is supposed to be the effect
of Adam's apostasy; and which manifests itself in moral agents by positive act
of disobedience to the divine will, or by the voluntary neglect to comply with
the express commands of God, which require that we should love God with all the
heart and soul and strength and mind, and our neighbor as ourselves. This native
depravity or alienation of affections from God and his law, is supposed to be
what the apostle calls the carnal mind or mindedness, which is enmity against
God, and is therefore denominated sin or sinfulness. Unpardonable sin, or
blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, is supposed to be a malicious and obstinate
rejection of Christ and the gospel plan of salvation, or a contemptuous
resistance made to the influences and convictions of the Holy Spirit. Mat 12.
SIN, v.i.
1. To depart voluntarily from the
path of duty prescribed by God man; to violate the divine law in any
particular, by actual transgression or by the neglect or non-observance of its
injunctions; to violate any known rule of duty. All have sinned and come short
of the glory of God. Rom 3. Against thee, thee only, have I sinned. Psa 51.
A Dead man can not be tempted by sin, because he’s
dead! The same way our old nature has
died with Messiah so we can live in holiness unto Him and sin no longer has
power over us, not more then sin has power over a dead man.
19. More than a conqueror.........................................................................Rom
8:37
Rom 8:37
Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that
loved us.
Conqueror
CONQUEROR, n. One who conquers; one who
gains a victory; one who subdues and brings into subjection or possession, by
force or by influence. The man who defeats his antagonist in combat is a
conqueror, as is the general or admiral who defeats his enemy.
The Torah/Word of G-d says we are MORE THAN A
CONQUEROR!!!
