Why is Justification So Important?
Why is justification so important? This is the central truth of the Christian faith; that we are justified by God's grace in Jesus Christ and this gift is received by faith. The cleansing blood of Jesus is our forgiveness and our freedom. Through God's gift of justification through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, we are acceptable and pleasing to God.

Confidence is one of the most precious things we can have. It’s a major handicap to lack confidence. Yet, there is a kind of confidence that God hates. To be rightly confident in the world we must first be rightly confident before God. There is only one right source of godly confidence; the righteousness which is by faith in Christ Jesus.

Lost
One of the amazing things about Jesus was that even though He was a religious person, He spent very little time with religious people. Although He was a righteous person, He always spent time with unrighteous people. And even though Jesus claimed to have come from God, He spent very little time pursuing relationships with godly people. Why was Jesus so attracted to people who were nothing like Him? And why were people who were nothing like Him so attracted to Jesus? I believe the answer to that question will determine out future at oneChurch.
