Justified by faith

 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: Rom 5:1

Since we have been justified [that is, acquitted of sin, declared blameless before God] by faith, [let us grasp the fact that] we have peace with God [and the joy of reconciliation with Him] through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed).

Faith based justification. Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.

Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; 22 even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: 23 for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; 24 being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: 25 whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; 26 to declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.

27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith. 28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.

Dear friend, have faith in God and in the Lord Jesus Christ. For salvation the word is near you, the words are in you mouth and heart. For with the heart man believes and with mouth confession is made unto salvation. For whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

It was good enough for me and I pray it will be for you.

God Bless you,
