While God has overlooked the times of human ignorance, now He commands all people everywhere to repent because He has fixed a day on which He will have the world judged in righteousness by a Man whom He has appointed and of this He has given all assurance to all by raising Him from the dead. –Acts 17:30-31 (NRSVCE)
Righteousness Through Faith
Now, apart from The Law, the righteousness of God has been disclosed and is attested by the Law of the Prophets, the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe.
For there is no distinction, since all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God; They are now justified by His Grace as a Gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God put forward as a sacrifice of atonement by His blood, effective through faith. He did this to show His righteousness because in His divine forbearance He had passed over the sins previously committed. –Romans 3:21-25
TweetJesus The (Only) Way To The Father
“Do not let your hearts be troubled. Believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house there are many dwelling places. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to Myself so that where I am, there you may be also and you know the way to the place where I am going.”
Thomas said to Him, ‘Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?’
Jesus said to him, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” –John 14:1-6
