Pastor Mike expounds on the theme of justification as taught by the Book of Romans, highlighting where it comes from, how it works and what it does.
God's punishment of sin was not simply swept under the rug or forgotten; it had to be served. Fortunately for humanity, Jesus Christ received upon Himself the total penalty that was due us; as a result, we are justified before God. We did nothing to deserve it and thus it is a free gift of grace toward us; it is a gift recieved by faith. God is proven just, equitable and kind through His loving action toward us; when nothing else would do, He went Himself to our rescue.
