How Can I Have Faith? (Romans 3;21-31; 4:1-8)

February 18, 2024 • Brad Jones • Romans 3:21–31, Romans 4:1–8

There are all sorts of ways that we try to find meaning and justification in life. We have a need for a “validating performance record” for ourselves. The gospel says that in Jesus Christ, God has developed a perfect validating performance record, and he offers it to us, and by it we are accepted and validated.

John 1:1-18 is an epilogue to the rest of the gospel. In it, we find a description of Jesus, in a way that shows us the very heart of God. No matter what we think of who God is, or what he might be like, Jesus shows us what God says he is like. The question is, will we take him at his word?
