For Everyone Has Sinned We All Fall Short Of God's Glorious Standard. Yet God In His Grace, Freely Makes Us Right In His Sight
Salvation Is Not A Difficult Process
ROMANS 3:21-26
“But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference; for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed, to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.

“Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the law is the knowledge of sin.”
Romans 3:19-20 NKJV
My beloved, it is impossible to be saved by keeping the Law, it’s too late for that, we are all guilty.
Many believe being “nice” will save them, because God won’t condemn nice people; that His grace is enough. But the truth is, while it is true that we are saved by God’s grace, grace does not override justice, if it did, their would of been no reason for Jesus to sacrifice His blood for the sin of the world.
After this terrible news about God’s condemnation that fell upon us all, Paul gives us the Good News.
There is a way to be free from the condemnation and be declared not guilty-simply by believing and trusting Jesus Christ to take away our sins (ROMANS 8:1).
Jesus died on a cross to pay our debt of sin, and then on the third day was risen, defeating death for all time (1 CORINTHIANS 15:4).
By this Jesus Christ justified resurrection life to all who believe and its not a complicated or difficult process.
“But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach): that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.””
Romans 10:8-13 NKJV
To trust Jesus means putting our confidence in Christ to forgive us of all sins, to make us right with God, and to empower us to live life by His leading (GALATIANS 5:16-26).
Some may believe that their sin is too great to be forgiven, but that thinking really is an insult to Christ, for His blood is more precious, greater, and more powerful than any good or evil thing that man can even contemplate within his mind.
He has no equal nor rival and His name is above every other name, and He shall reign forever.
The sacrifice of His blood covered every religious requirement and all the sin of the whole world, including yours.
Furthermore, His spilled blood cleansed every food for mankind to eat; indeed, all things are now clean by faith in Christ Jesus (ROMANS 14:14).
Regardless of your past or present sin or situation; regardless of the colour of your skin, your place of birth, or gender, or even sexual orientation, God’s solution is available to you, and it is simple process of believing on Christ as one’s Saviour and applying His blood to one’s life by faith alone.
This is not simply the Good News, this is amazingly Wonderful Good News.
Give your life to Christ today. Don’t miss out on the wonderful gift of life that Christ Jesus afforded you. Life without sin, or shame, or sorrow, or fear, or sickness or even death is available to you.
“Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.” Then He who sat on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” And He said to me, “Write, for these words are true and faithful.” And He said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son. But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.””
Revelation 21:1-8 NKJV
This is the ultimate promise, a promise well worth waiting for.
Therefore, my beloved, listen to the words that Peter spoke and is speaking out today: “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call.””
Acts 2:38-39 NKJV
My beloved, God’s promises are to you, your children, and to who are far off, (your loved ones), as many as the Lord will call, and I say “Yes and Amen”.
What do you say?
All glory to God forever and ever! Amen.
