Unaware of His righteousness, they attempt to establish their own. Justification through law will always fail to render one righteous, “for Christ is the end of the law for righteousness for everyone who believes.” This righteousness is found in the word of faith that has been proclaimed: that those who confess Jesus as Lord and believe that God raised Him from the dead will be saved. God requires a believing heart and open lips to profess the name of Jesus. Regardless of their background, whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. This salvation necessitates hearing the gospel of Christ and responding in faith. Unfortunately, prophecy foretold that many in Israel would not listen to the truth. Christians should desire and pray for everyone's salvation. If we know individuals who are zealous for God but lack understanding of the gospel, we should be prepared to share the truth of Jesus with them. Salvation comes through faith and requires hearts that believe and mouths that confess. Be attentive to the opportunities God provides to confess Jesus by helping someone in your life grasp the truth about Him. Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. However, the gospel reveals that such a call requires belief, confession of Jesus, repentance from sins, and submission to Christ through baptism. Many are not yet ready to obey, but we must continue to share God's gracious plan. Righteous Lord, thank You for making salvation accessible through faith in Jesus Christ. Thank You for the promise that everyone who calls on His name will be saved. Strengthen us to boldly confess Jesus as Lord and fully trust in His resurrection. Give us hearts for those who have not yet responded to the gospel and a passion to share Your word with them. Help us be faithful messengers, knowing that the faith within us and others comes from “the word of Christ.” Purge from within us any disobedience or obstinance that may prevent us from experiencing salvation in Your Son. Thought Questions: -       What does “confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead” mean in your life? -       If “faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ,” how does that direct how you grow closer to Christ and share Him with others? -       “Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.” Does this include elements like repentance and baptism? How do you know?

On Sunday, June 22, 2025, Pastor Mike continues the series on the Assemblies of God 16 Fundamental Truths by teaching on Sanctification, which is the 9th tenant. This message centers on the essential doctrines of Justification, Sanctification, and God’s Holiness. The sermon emphasized the absolute righteousness of God and the incredible supernatural grace by which we are justified by faith through Christ alone, not by works. Building on this foundation, Pastor Mike highlighted the necessity of progressive sanctification—a Spirit-empowered journey of becoming more like Christ in thought, word, and deed. Even in our pursuit of Godly Holiness, we will make mistakes and sin. When we do, God still loves and desires for us to acknowledge our shortcomings and return to Him through the Holy Spirit-inspired conviction, repentance, and forgiveness. In this process, we must recognize the difference between Holy Spirit conviction, which lovingly draws us to repentance and restoration, and Satan-inspired condemnation, which shames, isolates, and paralyzes the believer. The message challenged the church not to settle for spiritual stagnation but to pursue holiness with boldness, knowing it is both God’s command and His promise to complete the good work He began in us.

Paul explains that both Jews and Gentiles are under sin, showing that no one is righteous and that all need God's grace through Jesus Christ. Citing Old Testament scriptures, Paul demonstrates that God has always known humanity could not achieve righteousness through the law. The solution is found in righteousness through faith in Jesus Christ, who provides propitiation through His blood. God justifies believers as a gift of grace through Christ's redemption. God's righteousness is on display, as He is just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. In this, all personal boasting is excluded.   The Jewish people are special because God chose to reveal scripture through them. For some, this belief led to a mistaken notion that they could sin without fearing judgment from God. However, God is a righteous judge who will punish all those condemned by sin. This serves as a needful lesson for some Christians. Understanding the truth and being part of God's people does not excuse sin. The reality is that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Furthermore, none will be justified by their heritage, church affiliations, or knowledge. God alone is righteous, and He chooses to demonstrate this by granting us redemption as we live by faith in Jesus. We must choose humility over boasting.   Holy God, we confess that we have sinned and fallen short of Your glory, and we are completely dependent on Your grace. Thank You for the gift of righteousness through faith in Jesus Christ, who redeemed us through His sacrifice. Help us to live humbly, acknowledging that we cannot earn salvation but receive it as Your loving gift. Teach us never to misuse Your grace with willful sin but to choose faithfulness so that we may glorify and praise You with our allegiance. Lead us to someone today who is burdened by their imperfections and in need of Your grace.   Thought Questions: -       God is patient with His people. Does this mean you can sin as often as you want and be covered by His grace? Why not? -       If no one is righteous, and all fall short of God's glory, how do you maintain confidence that He has saved you? Where is your confidence? -       Justification is a gift of grace from the righteous Judge. How does your daily life demonstrate your gratitude for this incredible gift?

What would it take to silence the accusing voice inside you? In this episode of Light + Truth, John Piper opens Romans 8:1 to show how every charge against believers has already been answered.

III. Christ, by His obedience and death, did fully discharge the debt of all those that are thus justified, and did make a proper, real, and full satisfaction to His Father's justice in their behalf (Rom. 5:8-10, 19; 1 Tim. 2:5-6; Heb. 10:10, 14; Dan. 9:24, 26; Isa. 53:4-6, 10–12). Yet, in as much as He was given by the Father for them (Rom. 8:32); and His obedience and satisfaction accepted in their stead (2 Cor. 5:21; Matt. 3:17; Eph. 5:2); and both, freely, not for anything in them; their justification is only of free grace (Rom. 3:24; Eph. 1:17); that both the exact justice, and rich grace of God might be glorified in the justification of sinners (Rom. 3:26; Eph. 2:7). IV. God did, from all eternity, decree to justify all the elect (Gal. 3:8; 1 Peter 1:2, 19-20; Rom. 8:30), and Christ did, in the fulness of time, die for their sins, and rise again for their justification (Gal. 4:4; 1 Tim. 2:6; Rom. 4:25): nevertheless, they are not justified, until the Holy Spirit doth, in due time, actually apply Christ unto them (Col. 1:21-22; Gal. 2:16; Titus 3:4-7).

Karlo also clarifies the requirements for conditional baptism and confirmation, explores the similarities and differences between Catholic and Lutheran views on justification, and discusses the traditional order of the sacraments in the Latin Rite. Plus, learn how the early Church understood purgatory and when belief in it began to fade. Join The CA Live Club Newsletter: Click Here Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 00:59 – Why does the Catholic Church teach the distinction between mortal and venial sin? 16:43 – If the Eastern Orthodox Church were to ordain women, would such ordinations be considered sacramentally valid? 21:49 – What are the conditions under which conditional baptism or confirmation may be granted, and why might one be approved while the other is not? 31:56 – What are the key differences and similarities between the Catholic and Lutheran views on justification? Are they closer than commonly believed? 46:45 – Is there any movement within the Latin Rite to restore the traditional sacramental order—Baptism, Confirmation, then Eucharist—especially for infants? 51:43 – When and why did belief in purgatory begin to decline, and how was it understood in the early Church?

Why are the words “no condemnation” so life-altering? In this episode of Light + Truth, John Piper turns to Romans 8:1 to show how Christ's death placed judgment in the past for all who are in him.

Faith in Jesus gives us access to experience the grace of God, being justified by faith, and having peace with God as His friend.

Faith in Jesus gives us access to experience the grace of God, being justified by faith, and having peace with God as His friend.

Concluding the series, this passage in Job reveals that the Christian path through suffering means patient waiting, in deep dependence on God. This leads us to restoration through the compassionate mercy of Christ.

In this episode of Catholic Answers Live,  Jimmy Akin and Cy discuss what someone in the annulment process must do before entering the Church through OCIA, and examine how Sola Scriptura and a priori syllogisms relate to Anglican apologetics. They explore how to discern messages from angels, and whether Spock's sacrifice in Star Trek reflects John 15:13. Other questions include whether Martin Luther sought self-justification, and how to respond to criticisms of Catholic parish events like gambling nights.

Here in chapter 3 Paul poses a series of questions from an opposing party's point of view, as if he is being challenged by someone making arguments against his position. After most of these questions, Paul will respond by saying, “Absolutely not!” and will then proceed to explain why his opponents' proposition doesn't hold up. The overarching theme is that man is not justified by works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. Such faith does not nullify the law, but instead, upholds it, because it is by the law that we know our sin. There is no one perfect, for all have sinned and fall short of God's glory. Justification cannot be earned by such fallen people, which is why it is necessary that one inherit Christ's righteousness. :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

1. Those whom God effectually calleth he also freely justifieth;a not by infusing righteousness into them, but by pardoning their sins, and by accounting and accepting their persons as righteous: not for anything wrought in them, or done by them, but for Christ's sake alone; nor by imputing faith itself, the act of believing, or any other evangelical obedience to them, as their righteousness; but by imputing the obedience and satisfaction of Christ unto them,b they receiving and resting on him and his righteousness by faith; which faith they have not of themselves, it is the gift of God.c a. Rom 3:24; 8:30. • b. Jer 23:6; Rom 3:22, 24-25, 27-28; 4:5-8; 5:17-19; 1 Cor 1:30-31; 2 Cor 5:19, 21; Eph 1:7; Titus 3:5, 7. • c. Acts 10:44; 13:38-39; Gal 2:16; Eph 2:7-8; Phil 3:9. 2. Faith, thus receiving and resting on Christ and his righteousness, is the alone instrument of justification;a yet is it not alone in the person justified, but is ever accompanied with all other saving graces, and is no dead faith, but worketh by love.b a. John 1:12; Rom 3:28; 5:1. • b. Gal 5:6; James 2:17, 22, 26.

In this second installment of our introductory series on Eastern Orthodoxy, Camden Bucey considers key theological distinctions and points of contact between Eastern Orthodox and Reformed theology. This episode focuses on the doctrine of God and the nature of salvation. We examine the shared commitment to Nicene Trinitarianism, while highlighting distinct emphases in Eastern and Western Trinitarian formulations. The discussion also explores the Eastern Orthodox concept of the essence-energies distinction, theosis (deification), and the centrality of Christ's incarnation and resurrection in their soteriology. Crucially, we contrast the Reformed doctrine of justification by grace through faith alone with the synergistic model of salvation found in Eastern Orthodoxy, raising important questions about assurance, divine simplicity, and the relationship between justification and sanctification.  Chapters 00:00 – Introduction 00:29 – The Holy Trinity in Eastern Orthodoxy  03:32 – The Filioque Controversy 07:51 – Essence-Energies Distinction 12:46 – Theosis and Deification 18:54 – Justification and Forensic Categories 26:10 – Synergism vs. Monergism 31:11 – Assurance and Pastoral Implications 34:21 – Summary and Preview of Part 3 Watch Part 1: https://youtube.com/live/HulZlUXAJ78?feature=share

Why must we be born again? Because we are born in sin, inheriting Adam's fallen nature. Jesus, the last Adam, gives us a new nature. Salvation isn't self-improvement—it's total transformation. Are you growing to reflect your Heavenly Father? How can we follow Christ without first being transformed by Him? Jesus commands us to be born again, not by our own efforts but through the Holy Spirit. This series explores why new birth is essential, how it happens, and the fruit it produces. Have you been born again? If so, does your life reflect Christ's transforming power? Join Nate and Gabe as they look at Christ Command to “Be Born Again.” Want to go deeper in studying this command of Christ?

Sermon Series: “The Gospel: God's Power in Our Salvation” Sermon Text: Romans 6:1-14 Sermon Title: “Sanctification: A Growing Obsession with Jesus” Sermon Slides: SLIDE 1 – Sermon Title Slide= SLIDE 2 – Today's Big Idea: If Justification is Good News … Sanctification is More Good News. And our Sanctification Progresses … as our Obsession with Jesus Grows. SLIDE 3 – Point 1: Our Sanctification Begins … By Our Union with Jesus. (vv. 1-10) SLIDE 4 – Justification = God's Legal Verdict of ‘No Condemnation'; His forgiving and declaring us righteous in Christ, because of Christ alone. Justification is God's verdict and our new status. SLIDE 5 – Sanctification = Our Actual Renewal in the Power of Christ's Crucifixion, Death, and Resurrection by the Holy Spirit. Sanctification is the Spirit's work and our new habits. SLIDE 6 – Insert a Copy of Point #1 of Sermon SLIDE 7 – 1st Principle (from vv. 1-2): “There are two kinds of people in our world – those who are dead to sin by God's grace, and those still dead in sin who trust in their works.” SLIDE 8 – 2nd Principle (from vv. 1-2): “Our Justification is not our license to keep sinning … but our license to become holy.” SLIDE 9 – Insert a Copy of Point #1 of Sermon SLIDE 10 – 1 Cor. 12:13 – “For also by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free, and we were all made to drink of one Spirit.” SLIDE 11 – Insert a Copy of Point #1 of Sermon SLIDE 12 – 1st Principle (from vv. 9-10): “Justification overturns sin's final penalty … but Sanctification overcomes sin's present power.” SLIDE 13 – 2nd Principle (from vv. 9-10): “Justification is the Gospel at work for us. But Sanctification is the Gospel at work in us. We will be changed!” SLIDE 14 – Conclusion (Point 1): “The additional Good News of Sanctification is that we've received real power over our remaining sin that will produce real holiness in us. We will be changed … because the change is inside us!” SLIDE 15 – Point 2: Our Sanctification Progresses … As Our Obsession with Jesus Grows. (vv. 11-14) SLIDE 16 – Matthew 5:29 – “But if your right eye makes you stumble, tear it out and throw it from you; for it is better for you to lose one of the parts of your body, than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.” SLIDE 17 – Insert a Copy of Point #2 of Sermon SLIDE 18 – Principle (from vv. 11-14): “You may lose a battle (or a string of battles) against sin, but you'll never lose the war. For God's grace of justification rules you … not the Law of condemnation.” SLIDE 19 – Conclusion (Point 2): “Sanctification is More Good News not only because we are liberated from the power of sin, but because we're fully empowered to walk, talk, and live like Jesus! We will look like Him!” SLIDE 20 – Sermon Uses: Three for our Gospel Sanctification. SLIDE 21 – You Can't Be Sanctified if You Haven't Been Justified … So Have You? SLIDE 22 – Our Sanctification in Jesus… is Also by Grace through Faith in Christ. SLIDE 23 – 1 Peter 3:15 – “But sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts.” SLIDE 24 – Phil. 2:12-13 – “So then, my beloved … work out your salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who is at work in you, both to will and to work for His good pleasure.” SLIDE 25 – Stop Trying to Be Perfect … Instead, Trust Harder in the Perfect Savior.

This week, Paul reminds us that the Christian life is not a straight line of spiritual victories. It's often messy, inconsistent, and filled with struggle.

On todays show the Full Crew of Jimmy, Texas Jim, Pastor Chris, James, Charlotte and Glenn we talk about Justification and Dispensationalism and N.T.Wright. Don't miss this Show!

Dr. Tom Curran testifies to the difficulty of overcoming arrogance, condescension, stubbornness, and self justification. Tom talks about many signs of someone lacking in humility, according to St. Josemaria Escriva. (Ascension Press)

In this episode, Hanson explains what Trump is really signaling: that his strategy was always about making peace through strength — not appeasement. And now that Putin is throwing that opportunity away, the world sees who truly wants war. “ I think what Vladimir Putin thinks, that he's going to continue the war; continue the terror campaign; get greater concessions from the Europeans, the Americans, and the Ukrainians; and move the battle lines a little bit to the west. And I think he's sorely mistaken. He's misreading Donald Trump.  “If I was Vladimir Putin, I would cut a deal today. And then, I would resume natural gas and oil shipments to Europe. I would open the economy back up. And I would tell the Russian people what you did.  … And that's a lot better—it's not a good scenario, but it's a lot better than another Stalingrad or Verdun or Somme for the next two years for Russia.”

In 1868 Pope Pius IX issued a call to those who, in his words, 'glory in the name of Christian, yet do not profess the true faith of Christ, nor hold to and follow the Communion of the Catholic Church.' He wanted them to submit to and join with the Catholic church, and hoped that the forthcoming First Vatican Council would catalyse this. Grasping the need for a concise and clear response, grounded in the biblical teaching recovered by the Reformers, Princeton theologian Charles Hodge penned a letter on behalf of the two General Assemblies of the Presbyterian Church in the USA. His explanation of the non-attendance of Protestant clergy at 'Vatican I' is helpful to us as the Pope and the Catholic Church once again loom large in the headlines.   Featured Resources: – Charles Hodge, 'Letter to Pope Pius IX', as re-published in the Banner of Truth Magazine, Issue 415 (April 1998). – W.

Date: Sunday, June 1, 2025Title: Much More: The Joys of JustificationPreacher: Wayne MeadowsSeries: Romans (Part 16)Passage: Romans 5:1-5

The Church is simple: believers gathered to hear the voice of the Good Shepherd. The holiness of those who gather is fully dependent on the Word by faith in Christ's forgiveness, not on ceremonies. Although our salvation is not dependent on works, faith in Christ has a natural outflow of good works. The Church, that is, believers in Christ, are to make their boast in the Lord and follow His will. Rev. James Roemke joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study the Church and justification. Find your copy of the Book of Concord - Concordia Reader's Edition at cph.org or read online at bookofconcord.org. Study the Lutheran Confession of Faith found in the Book of Concord with lively discussions led by host Rev. Brady Finnern, President of the LCMS Minnesota North District, and guest LCMS pastors. Join us as these Christ-confessing Concordians read through and discuss our Lutheran doctrine in the Book of Concord in order to gain a deeper understanding of our Lutheran faith and practical application for our vocations.
