1. What happened in history? (vv. 21-23)
2. What does it mean? (vv. 24-27)
3. Why does that matter for us today? (vv. 28 – 5:1)

Four kinds of people in the world:

• Law-obeying, Law-relying
• Law-disobeying, Law-relying
• Law-disobeying, Not Law-relying
• Law-obeying, Not Law-relying

You cannot accomplish true righteousness. You can only receive true righteousness.
