A believer, child of God is NOT going to act like one if
they do not know in their heart of hearts who they are in Christ Jesus - ALL
that has been done by the Lord and WHO He is in them.
In Romans 3, Paul has led up to the explanation of the creation and the fall of man in Adam - this fall passed to all men (he will actually make that statement in Romans 5). The "fall" is sin, corruption, evil at its core and evil at its worst, death and helplessness to be right with God.
So then Paul talks about the Righteousness of God being provided through faith in His Son. Jesus Christ performed the true, perfect Righteousness when He was on earth in His body. Then as we all know, carried our sins and sorrows in His body on the cross. This is why God can offer righteousness now through faith in Christ Jesus -
"...that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus." Verse 26
Oh, but there is indeed more than this. The reality that Christ lives in us as Life and we are growing in Him, His ability, His Divine Nature (Peter says we are partakers of God's Divine Nature), by God's Holy Spirit is astounding. I need to be reminded. Peter said that he wrote "those things" to put us in remembrance. Why?
Satan fights again the Truth.
And reality is that we do not need to have yet another experience alone, another "wave" of God's Spirit, yet another movement. We need the restoration of the TRUTH being preached and taught to our hearts.
Get people believing just the TRUTH of God's Word and truly hear it preached and taught, and we will see indeed, a movement, an experience (reality) - we'll see JOY and PEACE in believing (Romans 15:13).
But as long as we have man's interpretations, leaven in the lump, debates and arguments, we really are missing the glory of God found in the face of Jesus Christ. We do not have religion, we have Jesus!
At the end of Romans 3, Paul emphasizes that a man is only justified through faith in Christ - apart from the deeds of the Law. He will do this again in Romans 4. Somehow this is important. It must not be passed over without registering in the depths of our hearts. Growing in spiritual understanding truly does change us.
So faith in Christ is not just for getting right with God. The whole GLORY of salvation is WHO we have become in Christ Jesus for REAL! We are not going to love one another fervently and purely, until we know who we all are in Him. For the true love of God will treat another brother as they are!
If you are God's child, and I am God's child and we both belong to God - well, that is pretty awesome - God, the Father wants all His siblings to honor one another. And we are to stimulate one another in the Truth for sure.
A friend and brother in Christ sent the following to us. He went through the epistles and simply penned all the Scriptures of who one is when they come to true faith in Christ Jesus. AND are born of Him through God's Spirit.
It is astounding, marvelous and all one needs to jump up and down for the rest of their lives. These are Scriptures of Truth - so the point really is to believe - to continue to believe - to live by the Truth.
"The just shall LIVE by faith."
You may not have time to read the below today. So copy and paste these Scriptures to ponder, eat, meditate, chew on over and over again - it's all right there! And praise God, may our conscience be filled with Christ and the glory of God in the Gospel and Great Salvation He has provided through Him.
When a heart is filled with the reality of Christ Jesus, one is truly and genuinely Spirit-filled! A Spirit-filled child of God KNOWS truth - knows Jesus Christ, the Father, the Holy Spirit, the Words of Life.
And perhaps as an exercise between you and Lord, take some time to write down what comes to mind and heart questions about our walk - where we may not fully understand all these rich truths.
Questions like: "Am I too casual in my thinking about the Scriptures; Am I truly living by wondrous faith in believing God; Do I need to be deeply filled with glorious truth; How is God's Word of Life impacting me as a vessel and in my life here and now...?"
Be blessed as you read God's Holy Word of Life and Truth. We can only dance for joy as we believe God.

Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? God who justifies?
Who is he who condemns? Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us?
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
As it is written:
“For Your sake we are killed all day long;
We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.”
Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
