The Doctrine of Justitifcation

JUSTIFICATION

07/13/2025; Romans 3:21-26; Craig Hurty; Christ Proclamation Church

Sermon Theme: God brings salvation to sinful humanity, accomplishing justification through His own work and offering His grace as a gift. He shows his righteousness to the world through the death and resurrection of Jesus and unites His people with their Savior. Therefore, if God is truly for us, who could possibly be against us? We should glory in our salvation and live for God!
