Justification is the divine provision for the sin problem. It is obtained by the correct exercise of faith, and thus becomes a living experience within the recipient. It is the most desirable treasure any soul can covet, for it brings the gift of eternal life.
Yet, as Christ Himself has sadly confirmed, few will find it and enter immortal through the “strait” gate. Millions will try to gain admittance, but in many cases will fail because they have been taught erroneous views on justification. The Master Teacher warned that it is the knowledge of the truth which makes one free, while error will always destroy.
To receive the blessedness of justification by faith in verity, the needy soul must understand the nature and extent of the condemnation resting on him, and the structure of the solution which God has provided to remove that awesome, destructive weight. He must also understand exactly what God will do, and what he must do.
Then, taking great care not to attempt to do God’s part, the sinner faithfully follows the procedures outlined in the Scriptures. As surely as he does this in living faith, the blessing will follow. He will be justified and receive the righteousness of Christ.
This publication is written to make these things clear and it is our prayer that every reader will come to know by experience “the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputes righteousness without works.” Romans 4:6. 60p
