Today’s Thought “Walk of Fame” G. Ward

Romans 3

22 But it is the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all those who believe; for there is no distinction, 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 being justified as a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus.

 

Is there someone more significantly better than the next? Have wavering words so philosophically perceived become its determinant? Am I known for switching partners as my esteem for some is perceived by external success?

Upon careful examination of Holy God’s Word, we’ll see generations of mankind have (and perpetuate) rebellion against their Maker (Ro.3:2-4); primarily through self-governance (*and we thought an “own your own power” theorizing was new – cf. 2 Ti.3:1-5). For any sensible, proper interrogation of God’s Word furthered, will prayerfully observe a “no righteous activity” from man, prompting entry of the Savior unto a world so entirely disconnected, and witness HIS perfect living, along with tumultuous assault from those violators in righteousness instrumental in His death, whereby words from His (i.e., Jesus’) lips would echo, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do” and thereafter He hung His head and died and whereas 3 days later HE’D rise from the dead on our behalf, His work having stood in our stead (so amazing) allowed our communion with the Father via the great deposit of Himself in those who’d submit to HIM as Sufficient to deliver them from their sinfulness.

The older I become in HIM, the less impressed I am in another.
