We've been gracefully redeemed by faith in Christ Jesus who never accuses us but came to reveal the Love of the Father in Himself, for the Salvation of our souls (John 3:16-17). The Law accuses the sons of men, having brought forth the realization of sin and condemnation; yet, grace came through Jesus Christ who justifies us before the LORD, our Heavenly Father, as the blessed one who ever lives to make intercession for us (John 1:17, Deut. 11:26, Gal. 3:12-14).
Although, Jesus Christ "always lives to make intercession," we all need to receive Him for the redemption of our souls because whether or not a man keeps the Law - ritual without the reality of faith in Christ Jesus who fulfilled it, as God's Word - he will never have eternal life; for nobody is justified by their own works or religious practices, but by faith in the only begotten Son of God, who empowers us with the Holy Ghost (Heb. 7:25, Romans 2:12, Galatians 2:16).
PRAYER: Thank You, LORD, Jesus Christ, for Your redeeming Blood, which has so graciously set me free from all accusations, giving me the boldness, through the Holy Spirit, to declare the Good News of Salvation to all who need hope. Please keep me motivated to proclaim Your Word in love but never to accuse anyone, so that souls may realize the Truth, receiving Christ in repentance from dead works to personal faith and a Divine, intimate experience of Your Love,
Amen.
From John 5:45
