JUSTIFICATION

Justification is a word that is often used in our christian circles and it is a word that is found in the bible an example being Romans 4:5 which says " But to him who does not work but believes on Him who JUSTIFIES the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness," this shows us that it is Jesus Christ who justifies and not man, but according to my observations, I have realized that we do not believe in Jesus being the only justifier, for we have added many things and conditions for one to be justified which in effect has made these conditions to be our justifier and not the Lord. The book of Romans 4:25 speaks about Him who was delivered up because of our offenses, and was raised because of our JUSTIFICATION. Our justification is thus based on Him and Him ALONE for if there was another that was needed to justify us before God, then Christ would not be enough and we would still be dead in our sins, but since He was raised for our Justification, then all who were under condemnation in Adam have now been given Justification in Christ and all who call themselves believers will agree with me then that we stand justified not because we have prayed the sinners prayer, or confessed our sins or kept the law but because Jesus Himself has justified us; 1 John 2:1 says " if any man sins, then we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous." So let us go forth and proclaim this justification to all people, let us tell the drunkard and the sex worker that they have been justified by their Almighty Redeemer, Christ the Son of God who sits at the right hand of the Power. Amen.
