The Apostle Paul writes:
Acts 13:38-39 KJB
38 Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that THROUGH THIS MAN is preached unto you THE FORGIVENESS of SINS:
39 And *by him* ALL THAT BELIEVE ARE JUSTIFIED FROM ALL THINGS, from which *ye could not be justified by the law of Moses*.
❓WHAT EXACTLY SHOULD WE BELIEVE?
Romans 1:1-4 KJB
1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God, 2 (Which [Jesus Christ] he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,)
3 Concerning HIS SON JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;
4 And DECLARED TO BE THE SON OF GOD WITH POWER, according to the spirit of holiness, BY THE RESURRECTION FROM THE DEAD:
**THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST**
1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJB
1 Moreover, brethren, I DECLARE UNTO YOU THE GOSPEL which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 BY WHICH ALSO YE ARE SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, HOW THAT CHRIST DIED FOR OUR SINS according to the scriptures;
4 And THAT HE WAS BURIED, and THAT HE ROSE AGAIN THE THIRD DAY according to the scriptures:
Ephesians 1:7 KJB
7 IN WHOM we have redemption THROUGH HIS BLOOD, *the forgiveness of sins*, according to the riches of his grace;
Ephesians 2:8-9 KJB
8 For BY GRACE ARE YE SAVED THROUGH FAITH; and that not of yourselves: *it is the GIFT of God*:
9 NOT OF WORKS, lest any man should boast.
❗JUSTIFICATION BY FAITH WITHOUT THE DEEDS OF THE LAW FOR IMPUTED RIGHTEOUSNESS
2 Corinthians 5:21 KJB
21 For he hath MADE HIM TO BE SIN FOR US, *who knew no sin*; THAT WE MIGHT BE MADE THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD *in him*.
Romans 3:23-24 KJB
23 FOR ALL HAVE SINNED, and come short of the glory of God;
24 BEING JUSTIFIED FREELY BY HIS GRACE *through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus*:
Romans 3:28 KJB
28 Therefore we conclude that a man is JUSTIFIED BY FAITH WITHOUT THE DEEDS OF THE LAW.
Romans 4:4-8 KJB
4 Now to him that WORKETH is the reward not reckoned of grace, BUT OF DEBT.
5 But to him that worketh not, but BELIEVETH *on him that justifieth the ungodly*, his FAITH is COUNTED FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS.
6 Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom GOD IMPUTETH RIGHTEOUSNESS WITHOUT WORKS,
7 Saying, Blessed are they whose INIQUITIES ARE FORGIVEN, and whose sins are covered.
8 Blessed is the man to whom THE LORD WILL NOT IMPUTE SIN.
Romans 4:23-25 KJB
23 Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was IMPUTED to him;
24 But for us also, to whom IT SHALL BE IMPUTED, *if we believe on him* that RAISED UP JESUS OUR LORD *from the dead*;
25 WHO WAS DELIVERED FOR OUR OFFENCES, *and was raised again* FOR OUR JUSTIFICATION.
Romans 5:1-2 KJB
1 Therefore BEING JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
2 By whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH *into this grace wherein we stand*, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
