Doctrine of Christian Wealth Part 5

15. We became the beneficiaries of a Writ of Nullification.
a. Prior to salvation we were under the authority of our Nature of Corruption (Eph. 2:1-3)
b. We were retroactively identified with Christ in His crucifixion on the cross (Rom. 6:6; Gal. 2:20)
c. Our Nature of Corruption is legally dead by Divine Court Order of God the Father (Rom. 6:8-11; Col. 3:3; 1Peter 2:24)
d. We are retroactively identified with Christ in His burial (Rom. 6:4)
e. We are positionally dead to our Nature of corruption (col.2:12)
f. We are retroactively raised with Christ in His resurrection (Rom. 6:4; Col. 3:1)
g. We are positionally seated with Christ in Heaven (Eph. 1:3, 2:6)
h. The Writ of Nullification is a court order issued by God the Father to remove all legal authority possessed by our Nature of Corruption to rule over our daily lives (2Cor. 5:17)
Principle: Each of us will commit personal sins after salvation (1John 1:10) even though it is not God’s Directive will for us to do so (Rom. 6:1-2). We must identify these personal sins and confess them to God (1John 1:9)
Principle: Even though we are positionally dead to our Nature of corruption, it will remain experientially with us (1John 1:8), polluting the physical body (Phil. 3:21) until we put off the physical body through biological death (2Cor. 5:1-8) or have our body transformed into a resurrection body at the Rapture of the Church Universal (1Cor. 15:51-57)
Principle: There is no personal merit in confessing our sins because they are already paid for by our Lord Jesus Christ (1John 1:7)
16. We became the beneficiaries of a Writ of Circumcision.
a. We received the circumcision of the heart (Rom. 2:29a)
b. We were circumcised in the Spirit (Rom. 2:29b)
c. We were circumcised in Christ (Col. 2:11)
d. The Writ of Circumcision is a legal court order issued by God the Father freeing us from the power of the Nature of Corruption (Phil. 3:3)
17. We became the beneficiaries of a Writ of Jurisdiction.
a. We are dead to the authority of the law. (Rom. 7:4)
b. We are delivered form the law (Rom. 7:6)
c. We are freed from the law (Rom. 8:2)
d. The Writ Jurisdiction is not a change of venue transferring a court case to another court of equal authority but a court order transferring our case from a lower court to a superior court.
e. The Writ of Jurisdiction is a court order issued by God the Father removing our court case from the courtroom of the law and transferring it to a higher court, the Superior Courtroom of God’s Grace (Rom. 6:14; 2Cor. 3:11; Gal. 3:5)
Principle: Having had our case sent to the higher Courtroom of God’s Grace, we can never again be brought under the subjection of the lower Courtroom of the law.
Principle: This fact does not authorize us to practice acts of immorality that are forbidden by the law, but instead removes us from the bondage of the Law.
