The Way To Be Right With God Part 2

Romans 3:21-26

1.) RIGHTEOUSNESS IS NOW REVEALED (ROM. 3:21-22)
2.) RIGHTEOUSNESS IS FOR EVERYONE (ROM. 3:22-23)
3.) RIGHTEOUSNESS IS ONLY POSSIBLE THROUGH JUSTIFICATION (ROM. 3:24)

4.) RIGHTEOUSNESS IS BY AN ACT OF GOD ALONE (ROM. 3:25)

a.) By propitiation: Means to be a sacrifice, a covering, a satisfaction, a payment, an appeasement for sin.
(Heb. 2:17; 1 Jn. 2:1-2, 4:10; Lk. 18:13)

5.) RIGHTEOUSNESS HAS ONE GREAT PURPOSE (ROM. 3:25-26)

a.) To declare God’s personal righteousness:

1.) That He forgives sins (Mt. 26:28; Heb. 9:22, 28)
2.) That He is forebearing (Rom. 8:3; Gal. 4:4-6)
3.) That He is just (Isa. 53:4-6; 1 Pet. 2:24, 3:18)
4.) That He is the justifier of believers (Acts 13:39;
Rom. 3:28, 5:1; 1 Cor. 6:11; Gal. 3:24)

“God is just, and somehow, in that incredible, miraculous grace that Jesus came to bring, He accepts the sinner not as a criminal but as a son or a daughter whom He still loves.”
