38 Therefore let it be known to you, brethren, that through this Man is preached to you the forgiveness of sins; 39 and by Him everyone who believes is justified from all things from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.
Acts 13:38-39
Acts 13:38-39
Here is the bottom line of the gospel. Only Jesus can provide complete justification to those who believe in Him. Only He could declare, “It is finished!” Faith in Jesus cleanses us from all the inner guilt and condemnation that the Law of Moses couldn’t touch. Moses’ legal revelation kept humanity from slipping totally away from God while He brought His final cure for us in His Son. Legalism can only touch the surface of our sin issues. Living a disciplined life can help us be healthier in the natural, but it can never heal our hearts.
I surrender my heart to You again. Forgive me for trying to resolve my problems on my terms without consulting You. I am totally dependent on You for the holiness in my person. Guide me in understanding that I need to let the holiness You have provided work out in my life and not try to earn my own righteousness. Let it be known in my heart that You alone justify me by faith.
Believing In Him,
Pastor Jason
