Justification © John Stevenson, 2012

And He also told this parable to some people who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and viewed others with contempt (Luke 18:9).

Two men went up into the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee stood and was praying this to himself: “God, I thank You that I am not like other people: swindlers, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax collector. 12 I fast twice a week; I pay tithes of all that I get.” (Luke 18:10-12).

But the tax collector, standing some distance away, was even unwilling to lift up his eyes to heaven, but was beating his breast, saying, “God, be merciful to me, the sinner!” (Luke 18:13).

I tell you, this man went to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted. (Luke 18:14).

And when all the people and the tax-gatherers heard this, they ACKNOWLEDGED GOD’S JUSTICE, having been baptized with the baptism of John. (Luke 7:29).

He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. (2 Corinthians 5:21). His righteousness Our sin

Romans 4:1-2 What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh, has found? 2 For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not before God.

Romans 4:1-2 What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh, has found? 2 For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not before God.

Romans 4:3 For what does the Scripture say? “And Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”

Romans 4:4-5 Now to the one who works, his wage is not credited as a favor, but as what is due. 5 But to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited as righteousness,

Romans 4: just as David also speaks of the blessing upon the man to whom God reckons righteousness apart from works: 7 “Blessed are those whose lawless deeds have been forgiven, and whose sins have been covered. 8 Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord will not take into account.”

Romans 4:23-25 Now not for his sake only was it written that it was credited to him, 24 but for our sake also, to whom it will be credited, as those who believe in Him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead, 25 He who was delivered over because of our transgressions, and was raised because of our justification.

Romans 5:1-2 Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we exult in hope of the glory of God.

Romans 5:6-7 For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die.

Romans 5:8-9 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him.

God is infinite.God is infinite. God’s righteousness is infinite.God’s righteousness is infinite. Anything less than God’s righteousness is separated from that righteousness by an infinite gulf.Anything less than God’s righteousness is separated from that righteousness by an infinite gulf. Therefore, the righteousness that God demands must always be an infinite righteousness.Therefore, the righteousness that God demands must always be an infinite righteousness.

Sin is contrary to God’s righteousness.Sin is contrary to God’s righteousness. Therefore, sin is infinite in demerit.Therefore, sin is infinite in demerit. Because sin is infinite in demerit, it demands an infinite punishment against the sinner.Because sin is infinite in demerit, it demands an infinite punishment against the sinner.
