THE GIFT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS: The Voluntary Response to God’s Love

THE NEW CREATION SUMMIT| NATURE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS | NEW LIFE| Discipleship |CHIMDI OHAHUNA

Welcome to Day 3 of the New Creation Summit podcast series! In today’s episode, we unpack profound truths about sin, justification, and the unmerited gift of righteousness through Christ.

Discover the concept that sin is not just an external action but a form of unfairness to ourselves and others. Also, the implications of being “born again,” realizing that the sin of Adam fundamentally affects us until we embrace our new identity in Christ.

We will discuss how, in the New Testament, God’s character shines brightly through His act of justification. This justification is a transformative process whereby God regards and treats us as righteous—even when we feel unworthy. Through the sacrificial love of Jesus, we were made just, innocent, and free from the shackles of sin.

Our conversation centers on the pivotal notion that Jesus is the embodiment of our worthiness for salvation. He is not just a historical figure; He is the righteousness of God made manifest. By examining the significance of His blood on the Cross, we understand how He serves as our mercy seat—the propitiation for our sins, rendering us justified before the Father.

While justification is a precious gift earned through Christ's suffering, we also address a crucial aspect of grace: the tendency to take this gift for granted. Consider how every gift carries a cost for the giver and how our gratitude—or lack thereof—can shape our relationship with God.

Join us as we reflect on the responsibility of receiving this gift of righteousness. We consider how our giving towards God should be a voluntary act, just as being a witness to His grace ought to be a choice we make.

Tune in to this enlightening episode to deepen your understanding of God’s incredible generosity and the transformative power of daily living out His righteousness. Let’s journey together, thanking God for the gift of justification and inspiring each other to live out our new identities in Christ!
