JUSTIFICATION

GRACE vs LAW

JUSTIFICATION MEANS TO BE MADE RIGHTEOUS - JUST AS THOUGH WE HAVE NEVER SINNED

GRACE ACHIEVES WHAT THE LAW COULDN'T

GRACE IS DEFINED BY THE LAW

WE WOULD NOT KNOW WHAT GRACE IS WITHOUT THE LAW

THE LAW TELLS US WHAT WE DESERVE

GRACE IS UNDESERVED

GRACE IS GOD'S UNMERITED FAVOR

BY GOD'S GRACE AND MERCY, WE CAN BE MADE RIGHTEOUS BY FAITH IN THE LORD JESUS CHRIST

WE CAN APPROACH THE THRONE OF GRACE WITH CONFIDENCE AND RECEIVE MERCY

JUSTIFICATION MEANS TO BE MADE RIGHTEOUS - JUST AS THOUGH WE HAVE NEVER SINNED

GRACE ACHIEVES WHAT THE LAW COULDN'T

THE LAW REFLECTS GOD'S RIGHTEOUSNESS

THE LAW WAS GIVEN FOR OUR OWN GOOD AND PROTECTION - LIKE RULES FOR A CHILD

THE LAW TELLS US WHAT IS RIGHT AND WRONG

TO BREAK THE LAW IS SIN

THE CONSEQUENCES OF SIN IS DEATH

THE LAW CAN NOT MAKE ANYBODY RIGHTEOUS BECAUSE WE HAVE ALL BROKEN THE LAW
 
THAT IS WHY WE NEED GOD'S GRACE AND MERCY

GOD'S GRACE AND MERCY ARE UNDESERVED

GOD SENT HIS SON JESUS CHRIST TO DIE ON THE CROSS TO PAY FOR OUR SINS

ONLY CHRIST FULFILLED THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE LAW

HIS DEATH PAID FOR OUR SIN

JESUS WAS THE PERFECT SACRIFICE TO PAY FOR OUR SIN ONCE AND FOR ALL

IT IS ONLY BY BELIEVING IN HIM THAT WE CAN BE MADE RIGHTEOUS

WE ARE EITHER UNDER LAW OR WE ARE UNDER GRACE

WE HAVE ALL SINNED AND FALLEN SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD

THEREFORE, WE CANNOT BE MADE RIGHTEOUS THROUGH THE LAW

WE ARE JUSTIFIED BY FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST - THIS IS GOD'S GRACE

FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD

REDEMPTION - MEANS TO BE BOUGHT BACK AND SET FREE
 
SEE THINGS THAT TAKE PLACE AT CONVERSION

SANCTIFICATION MEANS TO BE MADE HOLY - TO HAVE THE CHARACTER OF GOD
 
SEE THINGS THAT TAKE PLACE AT AND AFTER CONVERSION
