We know we’ve been justified by faith, when we no longer bear the guilt and shame of sin. Constantly, living with a sense of condemnation. Where the conscience is free to lovingly serve God. And having the hope within us which gives us reasons to believe.
And good works are naturally produced. Through inspiration of the Holy Spirit according to God’s word. The Holy Spirit moves us to act on God’s word accordingly by faith. Empowering us by His grace and mercy to live in the fulfilment of His love.
Whosoever, hasn’t been such effected. Is in complete and utter darkness. Bound to unbelief which they call faith. A faith they try to muster up on their own strength. A faith dead in sin. A faith which can’t escape the sinful lifestyle.
Outwardly, seems different. But the inward man remains the same. still a slave to sin.
Living with the looming shadow of death. Tormented and viciously grieved, can’t rest nor find peace. The countenance is hideously disfigured. Unrecognisable and even is a stranger unto self. The foul disgusting odour of the atmosphere around about, attracts others who are no different, but toxic.
God help us. If we don’t have actual faith in you to be justified. We’re lost.
