“Justification by Faith”

 “Justification by Faith”

 

We who are Jews by birth and not ‘Gentile sinners’ know that a man is not justified by observing the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ.  So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by observing the law, because by observing the law no one will be justified.    Galatians 2:15-16

 

First, let us look at the word JUSTIFICATION; this word means:  to DECLARE RIGHTEOUS, and the OPPOSITE of JUSTIFICATION is CONDEMNATION, which means to CONDEMN or to pronounce a GUILTY sentence.  Mankind is CONDEMNED sinners and their Creator God is HOLY, so how can MANKIND be JUSTIFIED, or given a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with the HOLY, RIGHTEOUS GOD?

 

JUSTIFICATION, or being DECLARED RIGHTEOUS with God, is NOT by OBEYING the JEWISH LAWS, but it IS POSSIBLE to receive JUSTIFICATION, through having FAITH in the SON of GOD, the LORD JESUS CHRIST,  who GAVE His Life, in order for ALL mankind to have a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with the ALMIGHTY GOD.  And by His DEATH, BURIAL, and RESURRECTION, we can be DECLARED RIGHTEOUS, or JUSTIFIED, because of our FAITH in CHRIST, and NOT by OBSERVING the law.  Only through the shed BLOOD of JESUS CHRIST, is it POSSIBLE to receive this JUSTIFICATION.

 

That means that MANKIND can only ESCAPE CONDEMNATION to an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, once you are there, through their FAITH in JESUS and His REDEMPTIVE ACT of SALVATION.  To receive JUSTIFICATION, you MUST BE WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your SINFUL life-style, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART. YOU must ADMIT that you are a SINNER in NEED of the SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST.  And BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  And you MUST ACCEPT His Gift of SALVATION and JUSTIFICATION, along with His PROMISE of ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS, and ESCAPE an ETERNAL LIFE in HELL.  So, do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!
