  7. James 2:8,“If, however, you are fulfilling the royal law according to the Scripture, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself,’ you are doing well.” Cf. Phil 2:15-16.

  8. In order to fulfill the “royal law” (Royal Family Honor Code) we must have “wisdom” (God’s Word) resident within our souls and apply it on a consistent basis.

  9. The reason we are able to apply the RFHC is due to the precedent set by TLJC during His First Advent, culminated by His completed work of the Father’s plan for our salvation on the Cross.

  10. 1. Jesus Christ is the basis for the fact that we have an honor code, 1 John 4:7-21.

  11. 2. Jesus Christ now has three categories of royalty:

  12. 2. Jesus Christ now has three categories of royalty:Divine (Son of God),

  13. 2. Jesus Christ now has three categories of royalty:Divine (Son of God), Jewish (Son of Man),

  14. 2. Jesus Christ now has three categories of royalty:Divine (Son of God), Jewish (Son of Man),Battlefield (King of kings & Lord of Lords).1 Tim 6:15; Rev 17:14; 19:16

  15. This last royal patent necessitates the calling out of a royal family for Christ who is now seated at the right hand of the Father.

  16. Rev 17:14, “These will wage war against the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, because He is Lord of lords and King of kings, and those who are with Him are the called and chosen and faithful.”

  17. 3. To establish that family the Church Age was inserted into the Jewish Age to call out the Royal Family.

  18. Church Age Dispensation Moses receives the Law Rapture Jesus Christ Holy Spirit (Pentecost) J.A. – Trib. Jewish Age Church Age 1,500 yrs. 2,000+ yrs. 7 yrs.

  19. The Baptism of the Holy Spirit enters us into union with Christ making us spiritual aristocracy.

  20. 1 Peter 2:9, “But you are a chosen race, A royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.”

  21. 4. The believer is born again into a status quo of spiritual aristocracy as the lower case “kings” in the new royal title of our Lord.

  22. 5. In order to function properly in our position of royalty we need to learn royal manners, customs and conduct; “wisdom” teaches us how to live like kings.

  23. 6. Jesus Christ left us this honor code for the privacy and protection of the Royal Family of God so that we can execute the unique spiritual life of the Church Age.

  24. 7. The RFHC is a supplement to Impersonal Love for all believers and other pertinent Problem Solving Devices of the Pre-designed Protocol Plan of God for our lives.

  25. 8. The RFHC includes the advance to maturity making it possible for every believer who is positive toward doctrine to advance to spiritual maturity.

  26. 1 Peter 3:18,“Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”

  27. Eph 4:15,“Speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head (of the royal family), Christ.”

  28. Grace OfferingGal 6:6, “The one who is taught the word is to share all good things with the one who teaches him.”
