justified by faith
Job 9:2 NLT
“Yes, I know all this is true in principle.
But how can a person be declared innocent in God’s sight?
Romans 5:1
Therefore, since we have been made right in God’s sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us.
Martin Luther read Romans 1:17
This Good News tells us how God makes us right in his sight. This is accomplished from start to finish by faith. As the Scriptures say, “It is through faith that a righteous person has life.”
and was convicted in his heart, and understand that we can be righteous by faith.
Are we sure of our salvation?
This is important because we must be sure and know where we're going...
In Romans 5:1,
Justification is the work of God, which will cause the believer to be convicted that he had sins, and repent and put his faith in Christ's work.
When we accepted Christ, God unconditionally accepts us as righteous. Its a one time offer, and not repeated or over a period of time, nor based on the number of good works.
Being justified by faith is equal to all believers. It doesnt mean a pastor or elder has more righteousness, every believer is sinner saved by faith.
After being justified, its for eternal, it doesnt mean that 2mr when i sinned, i'll lose my salvation..
being justified doesnt equal to reborn. Reborn gives a new life, being justified gives us a status as children of God.
we still have sinful nature in us,
therefore we have to walk closely with God, lest we be tempted to sin.
It is our blessing to.be justified by faith.. The devil would often would accuse us of not "working our faith", or our relatives or friends would do the same, we must remember, God will say, you are already justified by faith when you first believed and accepted Jesus Christ's work of salvation.
Once a person is truly saved, the Holy Spirit will guide us NOT TO SIN...
How did God justify us, sinners?
it doesnt mean closing both His eyes while we sin, but He's always watching.
Itzs by his Grace we are justified.
Romans 3:24 NLT
Yet God, with undeserved kindness, declares that we are righteous. He did this through Christ Jesus when he freed us from the penalty for our sins.
