Am I holy and righteous?? Answer: Yes!  2 Corinthians 5:21.  A lot of people do wonder if they are holy or righteous.. God has already made (by HIS authority, grace and power: Romans 3:20-26), believers in Christ, now the Saints, holy… for ye are one with God. (1 Corinthians 6:17). That is our spiritual geography that does not change based on works or the flesh. God has set us aside, sanctified us and justified us. (1 Cor. 6:11). We are DECLARED holy by God, not by our flesh works …but by our faith in Jesus Christ. For our flesh is dead, we are only perfected only in the Spirit.

This rebirth is a SPIRITUAL (John 1:12, 1 Cor 12:13, 2 Cor 5:17) awakening, where the Holy Spirit works in our hearts to bring us to new life IN CHRIST. Col 1:13-14.

Salvation by Grace through Faith

-
  Ever wondered what salvation is? And how you earn salvation? Popular mistakes have been known as what salvation is that we need to work to earn out salvation but this is the real meaning of salvation  Salvation is the redemption of humanity from sin and it's consequences through faith in Jesus Christ which leads to eternal life How do we know this? Eph.2.8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,  So now we need to understand that salvation is a gift from God Not a result of what we have done How do we know this? Eph.2.9 Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. We see that it's not a reward Which means that man can't earn their salvation. What are we putting our faith on? The gospel  And what is this gospel? It is the Goodnews about Jesus Check next post to know what the gospel is
