When we can learn to embrace the righteousness of God that comes to us through Jesus Christ alone, there is always a way forward. And not only that, the glory of the LORD will protect you from behind!
There is no amount of good works, philanthropy, charity or service to others that can serve as a substitute for the precious gift of forgiveness and salvation accomplished through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
† “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.“ Romans 3:23 NIV
It’s not that we shouldn’t do good works, we should. The point here is that we shouldn’t do good works to obtain forgiveness and salvation, but rather we should do good works because in Christ, we are forgiven and have received salvation!
The Apostle Paul was once the epitome of what one could become and attain through one’s own works. Passionate about his own religious system of good works, he did everything he could to fulfill every Jewish law there was better than most. But after having an encounter with Christ, it changed everything!
