How many may
have this life?

regarded before they are quickened with Christ?

incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever." 1
Peter 1:23.
When our first
parents transgressed, what was done to prevent them from living forever in sin?
"And now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of
life, and eat, and live forever." "So He drove out the man; and He
placed at the east of the garden of Eden cherubim, and a flaming sword which
turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life." Gen. 3:22, 24.
By whom did the
Lord say that Satan, the originator of sin, should be destroyed?
"I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and
her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel." Gen.
3:15.
For what purpose
did Christ die?

also Himself likewise took part of the same; that through death He might destroy
him that had the power of death, that is, the Devil." Heb. 2:14.
How early was it
determined that Christ should die?

How did the Lord
regard Abraham's faith?
"Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for
righteousness." Rom. 4:3.
Since man had
sinned, if righteousness could come by the law, then what must we conclude?
"If righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain."
Gal. 2:21.
Why have all
been reckoned under sin?
"But the Scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by
faith of Christ Jesus might be given to them that believe." Gal. 3:22.
What does Christ
become to the true believer?
"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life; no
man cometh unto the Father, but by Me." John 14:6.

3:26.
If children of
God, what is our prospect?

Christ." Rom. 8:17.
