The Apostle Paul triumphantly challenges in Romans 8:33-3433Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth. 34Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us. (Romans 8:33‑34), “It is God that justifieth. Who is he that condemneth?” Christ Jesus by His suffering work alone accounts for it. Our sins afforded a righteous ground for God to be against us, but Christ bore them in His body on the tree, and His resurrection proves them to be altogether and righteously gone. It is God's righteousness not only to raise Him from the dead, but to justify all who believe in Him. The Holy Spirit preaches and sustains these foundation truths both for God and for the soul that believes in Christ. May it be your portion through sovereign grace!
