"At the very heart of the gospel is the doctrine of justification by faith. In Galatians 2:15–16, Paul makes one of the clearest declarations in all of Scripture:
“A man is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ.”
This truth is not a side issue—it is the foundation of salvation itself. Paul repeats it three times in one verse so that we cannot miss it: no one is justified by works, but only by faith in Christ.
In this sermon, we explore:
What justification really means (a legal declaration of righteousness)
Why no amount of works can satisfy God’s justice
How Christ’s perfect righteousness is imputed to us by faith
Why faith alone—apart from works—is the only way to be saved
How this doctrine has been attacked in every generation, from Paul’s day to the Reformation to now
Justification by faith is not a theological abstraction. It is your only hope when you stand before the judgment seat of God. Either you stand clothed in your own righteousness—which cannot save—or in the perfect righteousness of Christ, freely given to all who believe.
Brothers and sisters, this is the gospel: forsake all trust in yourself and cast yourself wholly upon Christ. In Him alone there is pardon, life, and eternal hope.
