Lesson 12: Reality of the Disciples Who Walked with Jesus

I. No one who walked with Jesus during his earthly ministry was actually born againA. Disciples believed Jesus was the son of God, a great prophet, one

who was going to redeem them from the bondage of the Roman Empire and establish again the Jewish Nation but not substitute or savior - John 11:25-27 as example

- Jn 8:44III. God devised a plan to win back his creation from Satan

A. Had to be legal because God is true to His word and can only do things by the boundaries set up by him (his word)

B. His son was the only one qualified to do thisC. After he died on the cross his spirit went to hell as a substitute for us -

Rom 4:251. He was delivered up to judgment - the judgment that rightfully

belonged to man because of his treason against God2. He paid the penalty for us so that we could become justified

through HimD. Not only did paid our penalty but openly made a show of principalities

and powers - Colossians 2:151. Right then he conquered Satan2. Destroyed the power of death, the devil - Hebrews 2:14
