What is Life All About? Psalm One Robert C. Newman Abstracts of Powerpoint Talks - newmanlib.ibri.org -newmanlib.ibri.org

Introduction Psalms 1 and 2 appear to function as an introduction to the whole book of Psalms. Psalm 1 – What is life (individually) all about? Psalm 2 – What is history (life of societies) all about? Abstracts of Powerpoint Talks - newmanlib.ibri.org -newmanlib.ibri.org

Introduction Psalm 1 divides into 3 sections of 2 verses each: Where do we find out what life is about? (verses 1-2) What difference does it make here & now? (verses 3-4) What difference will it make when we die? (verses 5-6) Abstracts of Powerpoint Talks - newmanlib.ibri.org -newmanlib.ibri.org

Translation Oh, the happiness of the man who Does not walk in the advice of the wicked Nor stand in the pathway with sinners Nor sit in the seat of mockers But rather his delight is in the Law of the LORD And in His Law he meditates day & night. Abstracts of Powerpoint Talks - newmanlib.ibri.org -newmanlib.ibri.org

Translation So he shall be like a tree Planted by streams of water Bearing its fruit in its season Nor do its leaves fall off But all it produces it brings to maturity. Not so, the wicked But like chaff the wind scatters. Abstracts of Powerpoint Talks - newmanlib.ibri.org -newmanlib.ibri.org

Translation Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous For the LORD knows the path of the righteous But the path of the wicked will perish. Abstracts of Powerpoint Talks - newmanlib.ibri.org -newmanlib.ibri.org

Where Do We Find Out? From other humans (1): Life is pictured as a journey from birth to death. Don't take your advice on how to hike it from those who are wicked. Pathways along life’s journey are lifestyles. Don't adopt the lifestyle of the sinner. Seat beside the road? Perhaps a worked-out justification, a philosophy of life Don't adopt the philosophy of a mocker. Abstracts of Powerpoint Talks - newmanlib.ibri.org -newmanlib.ibri.org

Where Do We Find Out? From God (2): Delight in law? A strange idea in today's society! But scientists delight in discovering natural laws. And engineers delight in obeying natural laws. Christians should be like scientists & engineers in regard to God's moral laws. Who else really knows what life is about? Blessed is the one who delights in God's law, thinking about it continually.

What Difference Does It Make Here and Now? A contrast, pictured in two diverse images from farming: A tree (3) Chaff (4) Abstracts of Powerpoint Talks - newmanlib.ibri.org -newmanlib.ibri.org

What Difference Does It Make Here and Now? The chaff The hull on the grain Not like the tree Blown away Benefits with wheat until the harvest, but then discarded One-season use No root, no fruit Abstracts of Powerpoint Talks - newmanlib.ibri.org -newmanlib.ibri.org

What Difference Does It Make When We Die? Judgment (5) Wicked will not stand in judgment Not "avoid judgment" But case won't "stand up" in court Wicked will not stand w/ righteous Separation, but not from hypocrites! Righteous will stand, in righteousness of Christ Abstracts of Powerpoint Talks - newmanlib.ibri.org -newmanlib.ibri.org

What Difference Does It Make When We Die? Eternal State (6) God knows (loves, approves) lifestyle of righteous. Lifestyle of wicked will perish. They will personally continue to exist. Their lifestyle will cease to exist. They will still continue to sin but now will be punished immediately. Abstracts of Powerpoint Talks - newmanlib.ibri.org -newmanlib.ibri.org

Conclusion What is life all about? Where do we find out? From God, where else? What difference does it make here & now? Whether our life is useful or wasted What difference will it make when we die? All the difference in the world! Abstracts of Powerpoint Talks - newmanlib.ibri.org -newmanlib.ibri.org
