DAD'S RAMBLINGS – Justification By Faith
Romans 3:27-28
"Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith. Therefore we conclude that a man is justified [margin: declared righteous] by faith apart from the deeds of the law."
Justification by faith. This is the truth that overwhelmed Martin Luther. Justification is a judicial act of God declaring a person righteous. I have nothing to brag about in regard to my salvation. I cannot buy or earn it. I could never be good enough to merit it. The only thing I can offer God is my faith in His Son, Jesus Christ. "In my hands no works I bring; simply to Thy cross I cling."
TODAY'S THOUGHT: God declares a person justified based only on that person's faith in Christ.
Have a justified day. Love you.
