Good News ·Restoration

God has provided for our restoration to Him.

We can regain the personal relationship with Him that was abrogated when Adam and Eve disobeyed His Word. 

The price has been paid for the restoration of our own human dignity. 

It is all summed up in the word righteousness.

The message of the gospel is that God has charged our sins to Christ’s account, and has now credited His righteousness to our account.  2Cor.5:21 

Consequently, we can stand in God’s presence with all the legal rights of a Royal Family Member—a child of God.   Jn. 1:12

The Living Bible says: God showed His great love by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners…and now He has declared us not guilty…

Since, when we were His enemies, we were brought back to God by the death of His Son, what blessings He must have for us now that we are His friends and He is living within us! Now we rejoice in our wonderful new relationship with God—all because of what our Lord Jesus Christ has done in dying for our sins—making us friends of God.Rom.   5:8-11 LB

Peter wrote: Who His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness.   1st Pet.2:24
