Right standing with God is unattainable if the method of achievement is measured by what YOU have done. Amazingly, Jesus died for all mankind, bringing all to the finish line ribbon. When you choose HIS life as the method of your righteousness, you have just broken the ribbon and are awarding the grand prize of Righteousness!
The declaration of what Jesus did is the very fragrance of heaven. Just like diffusing aromatherapy in your home creates an atmosphere of peace and rest, remembering what Christ accomplished for you on the Cross (heaven’s aroma) brings life and healing!
When God gives His blessing of eternal life there are no take-backs! When you received the reward of righteousness you were blessed with every spiritual blessing that heaven has, forever to enjoy the green pastures of true life. Jesus’ great gift of righteousness is now the only identity that your spirit can relate to.
The extravagant gift of Christ has guaranteed for the believer an eternity of freedom! There should be no doubt that you are free from the condemnation of sin, with only the life of God to look forward to. Invest in this gift of His grace and enjoy a never-ending return on your investment of eternal life!
Jesus is not the goal for the believer. He is the gift! When the gift of perfect righteousness is received and enjoyed, life’s goals become a logical expression of the truth of who God is in you! Have you believed in what Jesus did to make you righteous? Then you can confidently KNOW that every ounce of life that He has now lives in you!
Under the law of Moses there were hundreds of statutes and points that kept behavior in check. Fall short in any point (sin) and the entire law came crumbling down, proving your inability to obtain righteousness. In Christ, however, all these points are removed. Because of what Jesus did, we are free to enjoy perfect standing with God, with absolute confidence that nothing can ever separate us!
Born under the Law (Code) of Moses, Jesus meticulously navigated its impossible demands for perfection. The result of His work is a new Code declaring that you have been adopted into the Father’s house. You are no longer considered merely a servant or a slave but are boldly called His very own child!
God’s old assignment for righteousness, given to Moses, required perfect adherence by the flesh. Miss any part or the assignment and your grade of 0% was the reward. At the Resurrection, however, a new assignment was given. This assignment was not to be completed by the flesh, but by the Spirit. And now we enjoy the grade of 100% righteousness for all eternity by the simple application of faith in what Jesus did for the world – removing sins and imparting right-standing to all who simply believe!
Before time began God developed a plan to rescue mankind from the grips of sin. His plan was fully executed at the Cross, when the enemy of sin died with Jesus. The result of this triumph was seen 3 days later, when Jesus was raised from the dead, leaving sin behind and bringing with Him life and peace for the entire world!
Right-standing with God has always been rewarded based on a Pass/Fail grading system. Under the Law of Moses, your Righteousness Rank was determined based on your perfect performance. Under Grace your Rank is measured by Jesus’ perfect performance. It’s time for the global church to agree with heaven and enjoy your Perfect Score of perfect peace with God!
