Justification
JUSTIFICATION is simply being justified by His sacrifice. In other words, by faith, you accept His forgiveness. He cleanses your sins and blots them out. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: 1 John 2:1 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. Romans 5:9 It is a free gift of God, you can't gain it by your own power. Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law. Romans 3:28 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. Romans 3:20 Justification can't be aquired by our obedience, but rather by HIS obedience all the way to the cross of death. For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 6:23 Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise. Jeremiah 17:14
