GOD SEES YOU AS... RIGHTEOUSNESS!

Upon acknowledging that Jesus is exactly who He says He is, God sees you as being righteous! That simply means that He accepts you into His family and treats you just as if you were His most favorite! Righteousness means that because of your acceptance of Jesus, you now have the ability to stand before God as though you have never ever made a mistake. WOW, what great news! It also means that you no longer have to carry a sense of guilt or condemnation for any past mistakes you may have made. It is as though you are perfect. Perhaps this sounds to good to be true? No way, this is what Love, Christianity and the Gospel is all about-Good News!

Being God and being man, Jesus alone could pay our judgment so that we don't have to pay it. He pays it fully and completely, apart from any effort on our part. He is our Savior, and that is why he voluntarily died on the cross.

But he was wounded for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities... (Isaiah 53: 5, 6 ESV)

Jesus was a living sacrifice, one to whom God could legally transfer our sins to and bear out the just penalty. Jesus paid the price
for our sins. When we turn to Christ, recognizing our sin before a holy God, and our need of reconciling ourselves to God, by faith
we turn to the work of Jesus Christ that he promises to us.

There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. (Romans 8:1)

We are now completely free, having fully satisfied the law of sin and death by placing our faith in Jesus Christ. And now we have
true peace with God.
