Podcasts about Justification

Pastor Luke Simmons continues our series, “The Glory of Salvation,” by unpacking the doctrine of justification—what he calls being “righteous-ified.” In this message, Luke explains what justification is, how it happens, and what it gives to everyone who has put their faith in Jesus.  Looking at key passages in Romans and Galatians, we see that we are not made right with God by inherent goodness or by righteousness slowly infused through our efforts. Instead, God counts us righteous—fully accepted and at peace with Him—through faith in Christ alone.  If you've ever wondered how God can declare sinners “not guilty” and fully righteous, or if you wrestle with guilt, shame, or feeling like you never measure up spiritually, this sermon will help you see the freeing truth of justification by faith.00:00 - Introduction05:28 - What Justification Is10:33 - How Justification Happens29:39 - What Justification Gives**HOW TO FIND US*** SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YouTube CHANNEL: https://www.youtube.com/@IronwoodChurchAZFACEBOOK https://www.facebook.com/ironwoodchurchaz/ INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/ironwood.church/WEBSITE https://www.ironwoodchurch.org/

What does it really mean to be “saved by the blood of Jesus”?In this episode of the Sound Words Podcast, Pastors Aaron Nicholson and Jesse Randolph sit down with Pastor Kyle Swanson of Redeemer Bible Church in Gilbert, Arizona to examine one of the most central — and often misunderstood — themes of the gospel.Together they explore what the New Testament means by “the blood of Christ,” why blood is essential to atonement, and how Jesus' death secures our justification before God. Drawing on the Old Testament sacrificial system, they show how Christ fulfills and surpasses every sacrifice, revealing both the seriousness of sin and the greatness of God's grace.This conversation clarifies what redemption actually delivers us from, why the cross is the heart of the gospel, and how Christ's shed blood should shape our worship, our assurance of salvation, and our daily fight against sin.00:00 Welcome to the Sound Words Podcast02:51 Christ's Blood and the Gospel 05:12 Christ's Blood and Justification 09:37 Seriousness of Sin and Greatness of God's Grace14:27 Old Testament Sacrificial System and Jesus' Blood17:43 Doctrine of Redemption22:00 The Christian's ResponseSound Words is a ministry of Indian Hills Community Church, a Bible teaching church in Lincoln, NE.

In this 4 week study, we are going to dive deep into Justification and talk about its three different types.

Date: Sunday, February 8, 2026Title: The Justification of GodPreacher: Wayne MeadowsSeries: Romans (Part 41)Passage: Romans 9:14-18

THE MAN OF GOD CAN ONLY LEAD THE PEOPLE OF GOD WHEN HE RELIES ON THE WORD OF GODPaul started strong in chapter 1 in this, his last ever epistle. Paul stays strong in chapters 2 & 3. Paul finishes strong in chapter 4.I ended the last sermon looking at the general statements from II Timothy 3:16-17. Let's review those and then get more specific on what the Bible teaches us.I. The Source of Scripture -All Scripture is …God breathedII. The Strength of Scripture -Is profitable - useful, beneficial,It will teach us -Theology - The Creator God; The Holy God; The Glory of God; The Love of God; The Grace of God; The Mercy of God; The Wrath of God - just to name a few!Anthropology - The Priority of man (image of God); The Innocence of man; The Sin of man; The Pride of man; The Transformation of man is possible bc of …Soteriology - Salvation, Conversion, Justification, Sanctification, Glorification (II Tim 4:6-8)Eschatology (more significant than some think) - Matthew 24; Acts 1:6-11It will reprove usIt will correct usIt will train usIt will complete usIt will equip usIII. The Specifics of Scripture -Our Mission - Matthew 28:19-20The Great Commission is the Grand Finale of the story of Jesus. His story didn't end in the manger. His story didn't end at the cross. His story didn't end in the tomb. His story didn't end even after the resurrection. His final statement/commitment was a global mission. All 4 GospelsWe must focus on His missionWe must focus on two issuesOur Mandate - Acts 1:3-11We must focus on the KingWe must focus on His KingdomWe enhance His Kingdom through discipleshipWe enlarge His Kingdom through evangelismOur Message - I Corinthians 15:1-4 (DBR)We must focus on the death of Jesus ChristWe must focus on the burial of Jesus ChristWe must focus on the resurrection of Jesus Christ

Practical theology moves from assurance to action: do all things for God's glory (1 Corinthians 10:31) so that ordinary routines—washing dishes, working a job, attending practices—become the arena of transformation. Justification is depicted with a vivid image: Christ's covering stops the leaks of past failure so that believers can step into victory now, regardless of prior mistakes. Spiritual growth happens where human effort meets divine instruction—participation in discipleship and attention to the Holy Spirit's coaching create transformation that may not immediately change the scoreboard but prepares one to receive glory when God acts. Suffering and setbacks are not meaningless; Romans 8's promise that present sufferings are not worth comparing with future glory supplies the hope that God is shaping heirs to share in Christ's glory. The final summons is to trust, to participate, and to lift God up in every ordinary moment so that believers not only claim victory but also experience its transforming glory here and now.

Our new position with God brings remarkable blessings.

On this episode of Jesus 911, William Albrecht is joined by Allan Ruhl of OnePeterFive for a historical deep dive into the events that led up to the Crusades and why Christian emperors ultimately turned to the papacy for help. This episode sets essential historical context, helping listeners better understand the origins of the Crusades not as spontaneous wars of aggression, but as a response to real and escalating challenges within Christendom. It's a must-listen for Catholics and history-minded listeners seeking clarity beyond modern caricatures.

Send us a textA bruised heart doesn't need a lecture; it needs a lifeline. We open Job's story at the point where uncertainty intensifies pain and the chorus of “helpful” voices only deepens the wound. From there, we draw a straight line to our own lives: the way delayed judgment tempts the proud to assume God is absent, the way anxious minds manufacture explanations, and the way power and pressure never deliver peace. Instead of reading circumstances like a verdict, we learn to read the heart with humility and to speak carefully when a friend is in the fire.Together, we face the hard truth that spiritual harm often comes wrapped in confident advice. Job's friends mirror a posture we must reject: stacking outward observations into moral conclusions while ignoring the soul. We talk about why the wicked confuse God's patience with indifference, and why believers wait with hope, not panic. Then comes the pivot that changes everything: look to Christ and be saved. Justification is given, not earned. Temptation is common, not crushing. God provides a way of escape, often through endurance, and anchors us as more than conquerors in Jesus.Assurance doesn't grow in the haze of striving; it grows in honest self-examination under grace. We walk through daily practices that align the heart with truth: testing whether we are in the faith, naming the desires that are changing, and learning to die to sin without slipping into despair or pride. No one can threaten what Christ has finished, and no checklist can add to it. Believe with your whole heart, and let that belief shape your words to the suffering, your patience with God's timing, and your courage in the face of fear.

The justifications for war with Iran keep changing. First it's nukes, then it's conventional missiles, then it's protesters, and now it's back to nukes again. Kinda seems like war with Iran is itself the objective, and they're just making up excuses to get there. Reading by Tim Foley.

Victoria Coates warns that the Kremlin may use the presence of Russian-speaking populations in the Baltic states as a justification for future aggression, replicating the strategy currently deployed against Ukraine. She notes that this established pattern, which claims that Russian speakers belong to Russia, poses a threat not only to the Baltics but also to Moldova, although she expresses concern that European powers like Germany are failing to heed these warning signs.1923 PETROGRAD

Sanctification Explained: Sanctification is the ongoing process of becoming more like God, involving a change in one's nature, thoughts, and desires over time, as individuals strive to live in accordance with their covenants. The Role of Grace: Grace is central to understanding both justification and sanctification. It emphasizes that salvation is a gift from God, not solely based on individual works, and that individuals can have confidence in their justified state. Addressing Perfectionism: Many Latter-day Saints struggle with perfectionism, often feeling unworthy despite understanding the doctrine. The conversation highlights the importance of recognizing one’s worth as inherent and not solely based on actions. Mental Health Considerations: The discussion touches on the intersection of mental health and religious beliefs, particularly regarding OCD and scrupulosity, emphasizing the need for compassion and understanding in addressing these issues. Leadership Applications Fostering a Culture of Grace: Leaders can create an environment where members feel secure in their justified state, encouraging them to engage in the gospel without the burden of shame or guilt. Understanding Individual Needs: By recognizing that unmet needs may drive certain behaviors, leaders can approach members with empathy, focusing on support rather than judgment. Promoting Continuous Growth: Leaders should emphasize the importance of striving for sanctification, framing commandments and ordinances as opportunities for growth rather than as mere obligations, thus inspiring members to engage more fully in their spiritual journeys.

"Focus on yourself and feel and think about what you need to happen in your relationship."

Judgy people distance themselves and look down on others. But the surprise in the Bible is what actually makes someone righteous. In this episode of Live Like It's True, Felicity Carswell and I talk about the Pharisee and the Tax Collector from Luke 18 and share some of our own stories of being confronted with self-reliance.The truth is, none of us are righteous. We all need mercy. And when we receive it—when we go home justified, we're also free of judging ourselves against other people.  Judgy SeriesFree Resource from Live Like it's TrueResources: Check out Felicity's podcast HEREFelicity CarswellFelicity lives in Chicagoland, Illinois with her husband and two children.

Send us a textIn this episode of Beyond This, Matilda speaks directly to the spiritual community about the cost of silence.As violence, dehumanisation, and state-sanctioned harm unfold globally — including the recent actions of ICE in the United States — many spiritual people feel overwhelmed, confused, or unsure whether it's their place to speak. This episode explores why neutrality is not the same as peace, and why spirituality that avoids accountability becomes complicity.Matilda examines the misalignment between faith, particularly Christianity, and the harm being justified in its name, asking hard but necessary questions about belief, responsibility, and integrity. This is not an episode about politics — it's about conscience, courage, and what it truly means to live your values.A grounding meditation is included to help listeners regulate fear, reconnect to inner truth, and find the steadiness required to speak from clarity rather than reactivity.Content WarningThis episode discusses state violence, death, misuse of religious belief, and systemic harm.

In this 4 week study, we are going to explore the 3 tenses of salvation: Justification, Sanctification, and Glorification. What are they, how do they fit in God's salvation plan, and why does our salvation theology matter?

In this message from Luke 18, we walk through Jesus' parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector — a story that exposes one of the most dangerous spiritual conditions: trusting in ourselves instead of trusting in God's mercy. Two men go to the temple. Both pray. Both believe in God. But only one goes home justified. This sermon shows that the issue is not prayer style, church attendance, morality, or religious effort. The issue is justification — how a sinner is made right before a holy God. The Pharisee represents outward religion, discipline, and self-confidence. His prayer is full of comparison, performance, and self-righteousness. The tax collector represents spiritual bankruptcy. He brings no resume, no defense — only a plea: “God, be merciful to me, a sinner.” Jesus' verdict overturns human expectations:

On today's show we take a closer look at the Trump administration's buildup and justifications for a US military intervention in Iran. Then we have a direct appeal to our listeners to take action to save the life of a US citizen and Phillipina American now being held hostage by the Philippine military after witnessing a massacre in Mindoro, Philippines. Finally, we shine a light on Trump's US foreign policy and ask the question, WTF, question mark! The post A Look at The Trump Admin's Justification For Military Intervention In Iran appeared first on KPFA.

In this 4 week study, we are going to explore the 3 tenses of salvation: Justification, Sanctification, and Glorification. What are they, how do they fit in God's salvation plan, and why does our salvation theology matter?

Pastor Seth continues our teaching series, Breakthrough.

"In Galatians 3:13–14, the Apostle Paul brings his argument for justification by faith to its Christ-centered climax. After showing that the Spirit, the Scriptures, and even the law itself testify that sinners cannot be justified by works, Paul now explains how salvation is actually accomplished: through the cursed death of Christ on the cross.This passage shows that justification by faith is not an abstract theological principle but is grounded entirely in the saving work of Jesus Christ. Paul insists that every blessing of the gospel flows from one central reality—Christ became a curse for us. Those who stand condemned by the law are redeemed because Christ took their curse upon himself in a substitutionary death.By quoting Deuteronomy 21:23, Paul highlights the shocking nature of the cross. Christ did not merely die; he died the kind of death the law itself declares to be cursed. This forces the crucial question: Why would the sinless Son of God endure such a death? Paul's answer is clear—he did it for us, so that we might be delivered from condemnation and receive the blessing promised to Abraham.Paul then shows that Christ's death accomplishes two great purposes:The blessing of Abraham comes to the Gentiles—justification and worldwide salvation promised long ago are fulfilled in Christ, Abraham's true seed.The promised Spirit is given through faith—the Spirit himself is a purchased blessing, poured out because Christ has redeemed his people at the cost of his life.This passage reveals the deep unity of Scripture: the law, the prophets, the promises to Abraham, and the outpouring of the Spirit all converge at the cross. Justification by faith stands or falls with Christ's substitutionary atonement. If Christ did not truly bear our curse, then there is no gospel at all.Paul's message leaves us with a searching question: Does the cross of Christ shape everything about how we think, believe, and live? For Paul, the answer was decisive—“I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.”"
