NOTE
JUSTIFICATION BY FAITH- ROM 3 :23, 4:1-5 GAL 4:19-21, 2:16-21
Justify means to prove right or to prove innocent. For example, a person accused of a particular offence is justified by the law if at the end of investigation he or she is pronounced innocent.
Therefore, justification is a situation whereby someone is declared innocent or set free through the process of law from a charge laid against him or her. Due to the love of God for man, He sent his son, Jesus, to the world for the redemption of man. Therefore any person who believes and has the faith that Jesus died for his/her sins is justified by God.
Justification by faith is the righteousness of God acquired through faith in Jesus Christ. Man cannot attain the righteousness of God by his own effort or by keeping the law, it is only by His Grace which is the unmerited favor of God. This grace can only be received by having strong faith in Jesus Christ and the redemption He offers to mankind through the blood he shed on the cross. Therefore, if any man accepts Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Savior, he is justified by faith and once justified he is equally considered righteous.
WORKS AND LAW DO NOT JUSTIFY ANYBOBY
St. Paul made us to see clearly that no one can be righteous before God except those that are justified in the Lord Jesus Christ. Paul disagreed with the religious practices of old about righteousness. People at the time believed so much in the laws of Moses which had become their religious norms. They so much laid emphasis on what they do as dictated by the laws. Paul made us to see that justification is only accessible through believe in Jesus Christ
