S3E2: Justified Freely By His Grace
Being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. (Romans 3:24)
Listen as Ed Underwood teaches on the book of Romans for our third season.
Romans 3:21-26 is the foundational passage for the doctrine of justification. All the concepts involved in justification—the righteousness of God, faith, grace, redemption, and propitiation—are skillfully and wonderfully integrated into the most powerful paragraph in the Bible. Justification by faith has been “ground zero” to every revival in church history. Humanity’s ruin through sin and God’s remedy through faith in the justifying merit of Jesus Christ is a message that cannot be restrained. The personal implication of this powerful doctrine is profoundly simple:
When I believe in Christ, God declares me Righteous.
The full and free justification offered to all humanity, through faith alone, in Christ alone, brings ecstatic joy and the most profound comfort to every believing heart.
