Bible Verse of the Week

"This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus."


Romans 3: 22-23

Hey REEF-ers

Hope you enjoyed the very first REEF of the very last term yesterday night!
As you guys all know, this term we're doing the topic, Justification and last night we kicked it off with "Justification through Grace".

What is grace? an undeserved gift from God; something we cannot boast about for it was not given due to our own works. How did God show His grace? through Jesus Christ and His death on the cross.

This study was a pretty massive one, very challenging and at first, hard to grasp.. but i'll sum it up with the main points:

- What is righteousness? Righteous = Justify; and vice versa
- Who is righteous? God, and those who believe in Him
- God declares us righteous and determines what IS righteous.
- Why do we need His righteousness? to form a new relationship with God
- Because God declares us righteous, He places the spirit in us to make us more "worthy" of being righteous.
