Before Christ saved us, we were utterly powerless against the sin that so easily entangles us. But now, we have an entirely new position. In Christ we have strength to fight sin and live for God.

Union with Christ is more than you turning over a new leaf or making a decision to live a better life. It's the life of Jesus Christ flowing into you by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Justification is a legal term, but what does it mean and how does it relate to Christians?

Our sin is an offense to God. But the God whose holiness we have offended, whose world we have spoiled, and whose wrath we have incurred sent His one and only Son to bear this wrath for us.

At the Cross of Christ, all of God's wrath toward sin was poured out upon Jesus. There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ.

In order for love to be genuine, it must hate evil. God's wrath is His settled resolve that evil will not stand.

When God justifies us, he charges our sins to Jesus and He credits the righteousness of Jesus to us. We aren't justified by our performance, rather by faith, the perfect righteousness of Jesus becomes ours.

God could, if he chose, do all things by himself. But in His infinite wisdom, He chooses to work through vessels of clay to accomplish His ends in the world.

When we see Jesus as He really is, the Sovereign Lord of creation changes everything about our lives. There is no part of life that He is not sovereign over.
