The Faith of Jesus
We are not acquitted before God from the works of the Law but through the faithfulness of Jesus Christ – Romans 3:21-26. Having demonstrated that all men violate God’s revealed will, Paul concludes that no one is acquitted before God “ from the works of the Law .” Instead, we are justified “ through the faith ” or faithfulness of Jesus. We are reconciled with our Creator because of the gracious act of the Messiah for us. Since we deserve condemnation and death, all we can do is respond with repentance and faith to what God has done through the obedient death of His Son.
