The doctrine of justification by faith, a cornerstone of Christianity, emphasizes that salvation is not earned through our own efforts, but rather received as a gift through faith in Jesus Christ's sacrifice. This concept was a central point of contention during the Protestant Reformation, and remains a fundamental belief for many Christians today.
The law, both in the Old Testament and as the moral law, serves to reveal our shortcomings and need for a Savior, but cannot justify us before God. Only through faith in Jesus can we receive the righteousness of God, as his perfect life and atoning death are credited to our account.
This understanding of justification by faith, as presented in Romans, is a message of hope and liberation for all who believe. It frees us from the burden of trying to earn our salvation and invites us to embrace a life of gratitude and obedience, empowered by the Holy Spirit to fulfill God's law out of love rather than obligation.
