Abraham was righteous not because of his works or who he was. Instead, Abraham was justified by faith because he believed that God will deliver on his promises. This week, Rev. Jeremiah Cheung explains how we, like Abraham, must have faith that salvation is accomplished only by what Jesus did on the cross, not by our own works.
Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness. This week, Ptr. Jared Co reminds us that we are justified by faith alone and not by our works. Let us reflect on this truth from the Gospel and be thankful for God’s grace.
Hindi natin kayang bayaran ang ating mga kasalanan sa pamamagitan ng mabuting gawa, relihiyon, o sariling kagalingan. Samahan natin si Ptr. Michael Cariño itong linggo kung saan ipapaalala niya na ang tanging paraaan na tayo ay mapapawalang-sala ay dahil sa pagtitiwala kay Kristo.
We often say that salvation is a gift and we are justified freely but often forget the cost of this redemption. God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement so that we may be saved through faith. In this message, Rev. Jeremiah Cheung reveals the three main aspects of Christ’s redemption—the atonement sacrifice, the blood of Jesus, and the faith of man.
