Preacher: Jeremiah Fyffe _Romans 3:21–26 _ 2024-04-07 | ProPresenter TITLE: Gospel Glory — Part 1 SCRIPTURE: Romans 3:21–26 GOSPEL GLORY THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD APART FROM THE LAW THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD THROUGH FAITH THE REDEMPTION THAT IS IN CHRIST JESUS GOD’S KINDNESS VINDICATED — THE JUST AND THE JUSTIFIER John Murray Redemption contemplates our bondage and is the provision of grace to release us from that bondage. Propitiation contemplates our liability to the wrath of God and is the provision of grace whereby we may be freed from that wrath. Ezekiel 33:10–11 (ESV) And you, son of man, say to the house of Israel, Thus have you said: ‘Surely our transgressions and our sins are upon us, and we rot away because of them. How then can we live?’ Say to them, As I live, declares the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from his way and live; turn back, turn back from your evil ways, for why will you die, O house of Israel? The 1689 Baptist Confession (Article 11) By His obedience and death, Christ fully paid the debt of all those who are justified. He endured in their place the penalty they deserved. By this sacrifice of Himself in His bloodshed on the cross, He legitimately, really and fully satisfied God’s justice on their behalf. Yet their justification is based entirely on free grace, because He was given by the Father for them, and His obedience and satisfaction were accepted in their place. These things were done freely, not because of anything in them, so that both the exact justice and the rich grace of God would be glorified in the justification of sinners. John Bunyan, The Pilgrim’s Progress, 1688 So I saw in my dream that just as Christian came up to the cross, his burden loosed from off his shoulders and fell from off his back and began to tumble, and so continued to do till it came to the mouth of the sepulchre, where it fell in, and I saw it no more. Then was Christian glad and lightsome and said with a merry heart, “He hath given me rest by His sorrow and life by His death.” Then he stood still awhile to look and wonder, for it was very surprising to him that the sight of the cross should thus ease him of his burden. He looked therefore and looked again, even till the springs that were in his head sent the waters down his cheeks.
