I’m in the faith of Jesus Christ

- Galatians 2:16, Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of t

JESUS came to keep or to fulfil the law for us to be accepted by God based on His accomplish­ed works. He did it perfectly well so that it’s no longer our works that count, but His works so that we enter His rest. We know this and we don’t doubt what God did for us in Christ.

Believers are in the faith of Jesus Christ. You know that He died for us without us giving Him our guarantee that we would accept His sacrifice and love for us.

However, there are still others who still want to approach God by their self-effort thereby despising and ridiculing what Jesus did. You and me choose to respect what God did in Christ and believe and are therefore justified by Christ Jesus’ faith.

No matter how much you may try it, the Bible authoritat­ively states that no human being shall be justified by works of the law. Christiani­ty is called the faith and this faith is of Christ Jesus.

Deceivers and malicious false preachers destroy the gullible by preaching human effort which cannot get us to God. Please don’t be misled, stick to Jesus.

Your prayer: Abba Father, I thank you for bringing me unto you by the faith of Jesus Christ which cannot fall. I thank you for making me right with you not by works of the law, but by the faith of Christ Jesus. I thank you for my justificat­ion in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Your Confession­s: I am justified. I am in the faith of Jesus Christ. I have access to God the Father. I believe in Jesus Christ. I enjoy my place in God in Christ.
