Much More
Dale Byers
Dale Byers sent this with these remarks:
Pastor Lee Russell is a personal friend of mine who was pastor of a fellowshipping church in Crawfordsville, IN. He gave me the privilege of preaching my second sermon and moderated my ordination. He is 93 years old but his mind is keen and his faith is stronger than ever. I thought you would enjoy his Bible study outline.

It has been well stated that the Book of Romans is the book of "Much Mores". I suggest the diligent study of the Holy Spirit's usage of these "much mores".
1. The "much more" of justification (5:9).
2. The "much more" of reconciliation (5:10).
3. The "much more" of the gift of grace (5:15).
4. The "much more" of the gift of righteousness (5:17).
5. The "much more" of abounding grace (5:20).
6. The "much more" of engrafted identification (11:12).
We also note that the Book of Revelation is the book of "no mores".
1. No more sea (21:1).
2. No more sorrow (21:4).
3. No more crying (21:4).
4. No more pain (21:4).
5. No more death (21:4).
6. No more curse (22:3).
In addition we note that there will be no tempter (21:2). No sun, no
moon and no night (21:23; 22:5). When this new habitation is ours,
through death, we will have passed from death unto life; from sorrow into joy, and from perplexity into peace. Death will have been swallowed up in victory. Also, we may conclude that there will be no more enemies.
