Justification places us in a status as having never sinned, and there are six blessings that come from this: 1) We have peace with God. We’re no longer at war with Him;. 2) We stand in grace. It’s like having a backstage pass to be in the presence of the Lord; 3) We rejoice in the hope of the glory of God – a hope-filled certainty; 4) We have glory in suffering – we’ll never go through it alone and it will always work something out in us; 5) We are saved from wrath; and 6) We can rejoice and boast in God.

In his old age, and as good as dead, God promised Abraham that he would have a son and would be the father of many nations. Abraham believed God and it was "accounted to him as righteousness." So to are we accounted as righteousness if we believe in God who raised Jesus from the dead.

It doesn’t matter if you’re “pagan” or “righteous” (appearing), we’re all guilty and salvation for all is only by grace through faith. There are two sides: the law, which says “you must,” “you will;” and the promise, which says “I (God) will,” “have faith”, “believe.” The law promotes sin because If you know it’s wrong you want to do it all the more. It’s critical to understand that faith is not a meritorious work; it’s just allowing yourself to be rescued. Grace gives and faith takes.
