Many Christians live as though their acceptance before God rises and falls with their performance. But Scripture declares something far better: "Justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus." (Romans 3:24) In this Reformation Month episode, Dave Jenkins explores the heart of Sola Fide—faith alone. He exposes the "Do-More Gospel" and its modern counterfeits (legalism, prosperity-lite, and therapeutic moralism), and re-centers assurance on the finished work of Christ. Listeners will learn how justification by faith alone frees weary souls from ladder-climbing religion and fuels grateful obedience as the fruit of grace, not the fee for favor. ________________________________________ Key Points: • God declares the ungodly righteous by grace through faith in Christ. • Counterfeit gospels confuse fruit with foundation and destroy assurance. • Justification by imputation relocates our verdict outside of ourselves—on Jesus. • Grateful obedience flows from assurance, not anxiety. ________________________________________ Takeaway: You are not accepted because you perform; you are accepted because Christ performed perfectly for you.
