Study 9: Justification Explained, By Redeeming Grace (3:19-31)
[This recording picked up two audio sources resulting in an echo effect. Jared hopes the listener/watcher will forebear the unpleasant sound in view of benefitting from the teachings.]
This study begins a new section in Paul’s letter to the Romans—How Are Sinners Secured Salvation By God? Paul divides his answer under four headings, unfolding the various roles assumed by the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit under the terms and promises of the gracious covenant. He begins in (3:19-5:21) with the role of God the Son, in the person of the Lord Jesus Christ. This study examines Paul’s explanation on the central message of the gracious covenant—justified freely by the Father’s grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus (3:19-31).
