"The Gift of Righteousness"


“The Gift of Righteousness”

But the gift is not like the trespass.  For if by the one man’s trespass the many died, how much more have the grace of God and the gift overflowed to the many by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ.

And the gift is not like the one man’s sin, because from one sin came judgment, resulting in condemnation, but from many trespasses came the gift, resulting in justification.

Since by one man’s trespass, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive the overflow of grace and the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ.       Romans 5:15 -17



Righteousness is the act of being made RIGHT in the eyes of the Almighty God or being JUSTIFIED through the REDEMPTIVE WORK of Jesus Christ. 



The VERY BEST of ALL gifts a person can receive is the GIFT of RIGHTEOUSNESS.  This is a VERY TRUE statement, because by the ONE MAN’S trespass, that being Adam, many are CONDEMNED and SENTENCED to a SPIRITUAL death, because of their SINFUL NATURE and an UNREPENTANT HEART.  And because of the AMAZING GRACE of a LOVING GOD, they are JUSTIFIED.



They are JUSTIFIED and they receive the GIFT of RIGHTEOUSNESS, because of the SACRIFICAL DEATH and GLORIOUS RESURRECTION of the LORD JESUS CHRIST. Who came as a newborn babe and lived among mankind, in order to bring the GIFT of RIGHTEOUSNESS to ALL who will RECEIVE IT.  Have you received the GIFT of RIGHTEOUSNESS?



It is a FREE GIFT on your part, God is giving you His GRACE, and all you have to do is to be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  CONFESSING your sins to Him and then ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  Then you MUST ACCEPT His GIFT of RIGHTEOUSNESS and SALVATION, and make this the VERY BEST CHRISTMAS EVER!!  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and coming SOON!!!
