Romans 6:21-22 "Benefit"
If my neighbors tore down their house and built a multi-million dollar mansion, the value of my house would increase. I did nothing, but as a third party I receive the benefit of another’s expense. That’s the concept the Bible uses for the benefit we have from God’s promises in the Old Testament. We are blessed by the promises given to Israel. This is Dr. Jay Quine. Remember the word “Benefit”. What benefit were you deriving from the things of which you are now ashamed? But now being freed from sin and enslaved to God, you derive your benefit, resulting in sanctification, and the outcome eternal life. Thank God for our neighbor Israel as you enjoy the benefits and blessings of eternal life today.
