JUSTIFIED BY CHRIST

-

 



Romans 5:1-21

Christ’s Death on the Cross not only kept us from an eternal separation but manifest
four things in our walk with the Lord.

1. We have peace with God

The war with our LORD is over we can now enter his holy presence due to Christ  being a substitute to face his wrath for our sin. Christ is now sitting at the right
hand of the Father advocating for us and defeating the accusations from Satan our adversary.

2. Every problem has a purpose.

Circumstances that come our are now seen as ways for us to grow in faith knowing Christ will never leave or forsake us. Knowing that it will lead us to be fully
perfected when we finally enter heaven.

3. We have reconciliation with God

The veil has been rent in two between God and men since Christ became the permanent sacrifice we are no longer his enemy but are now his friend. He has
replaced Adam who condemn us to sin and shame.

4. God’s grace is ever-abounding

Christ’s sacrifice has enabled God the Father to now provide the forgiveness he has longed planned since Adam made the decision to sin against God. We can now
boldly come the throne for help in time of need.

Christmas ?

-
                                                                   Christmas?   Christmas, Easter the Sabbath day bring disputes over whether they are PAGAN or is it the right day. So earlier in the last few weeks I overheard a conversation between a sister in Christ when she tried to witness to a person. As she was witnessing he asked her "but what about the Sabbath when do you worship" and she admitted on Sunday. The person then said "what about Christmas do you celebrate" and she said "yes" and he immediately began to talk about the fact that sunday was not the sabbath and Christmas is pagan day and we do not know when Jesus was actually born. The message of the Gospel could have been sidetracked as she tried to defend celebrating Christmas and Sundays. We are going to speak about her response later.    2 Timothy 2:14 says "Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to

Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm. 27 But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him! Matthew 14:22-32 22 Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go before Him to the other side, while He sent the multitudes away. 23 And when He had sent the multitudes away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. Now when evening came, He was alone there. 24 But the boat was now in the middle of the sea, tossed by the waves
