LESSON NINE:

“BELIEVING THE GOSPEL OF JUSTIFICATION BY FAITH”

  Taken together, Romans Chapter Four and
  Chapter Five make Paul’s argument for total
  justification by faith in the finished work of Christ on
  the cross:

       “FOR BY ONE MAN’S DISOBEDIENCE MANY WERE
    MADE SINNERS, SO ALSO BY ONE MAN’S OBEDIENCE

                 MANY WILL BE MADE RIGHTEOUS”

                                           Rom. 5:19

  Here then is the hope of the gospel as presented
  by Paul:

        INDEED YOU CONTINUE IN THE FAITH, GROUNDED AND STEADFAST,

    AND ARE NOT MOVED AWAY FROM THE HOPE OF THE GOSPEL…”
                         THE GOSPEL MESSAGE OF

                  BY FAITH

Rom. 3:24                   Rom. 3:28

“BEING JUSTIFIED             “…JUSTIFIED BY FAITH
        FREELY                       APART FROM

BY HIS GRACE…”              THE DEEDS OF THE LAW”

                  Rom. 4:5

      “…BUT TO HIM WHO…BELIEVES ON HIM
              WHO JUSTIFIES THE UNGODLY,

HIS FAITH IS ACCOUNTED FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS”

                                 Rom. 5:9
                         “MUCH MORE THEN,
     HAVING NOW BEEN JUSTIFIED BY HIS BLOOD,
WE SHALL BE SAVED FROM WRATH THROUGH HIM.”
