Romans‬ ‭3‬:‭10‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

“As it is written: “There is none righteous, no, not one;”

‭‭Romans‬ ‭3‬:‭10‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Paul taught the believers not to stand on their good deeds, on their religious rituals and not to make any standard to justify themselves.

The only justification that we have is found in Jesus Christ. Yes, each one does play an important part in our journey of faith, but we should all come together in agreement in Christ Jesus.

The debate that started in the early church with the people who held rituals above loving each other is still going on today.

Everyone who holds rituals above the law of love is not following God.

God is love. Therefore, every guideline, every discipline, correction and growth must be motivated by love.

Jesus came not to punish the world but to provide the way out of death to life.

That is love.

While the world turned their backs on Jesus, He still came to take their full punishment on himself willingly.

To state that we can be made righteous by the law is sin that cuts away the very grace God gave to mankind.

Let us come in complete humility and receive our completely new identity as a child of the living God.

Blessings
