The Gift

Romans 3 says for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified as a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus; whom God displayed publicly as a propitiation in His blood through faith. 

This is a verse many use as they talk to others and bring them into relationship with Christ.  We all have sinned – done wrong – and there’s nothing we can do to right those wrongs.

The gift of grace is freely given to us by Jesus to redeem us – forgive us – set us free from the power that sin holds over our lives.

God did this for us through his son Jesus who shed his blood for our sins – the was the perfect sacrifice.

And when we exercise faith – believing in him – we are justified – made clean from every wrongdoing or sin we’ve committed.

And we are made clean in his sight – totally forgiven – by the grace of Jesus.

Isn’t that cool?  Grace is free.  Salvation is free.
