Righteousness from God by Faith
Series Reformation Season 2022
59
After months of excruciating torment over his sins, the Roman Catholic priest Martin Luther finally was able to grasp the meaning of
Rom. 1:17: it was not his own religious good works that qualified him for entrance into Christ's kingdom, but the grace of God that bestowed on him righteousness from God. In a second of time, Luther was changed from a condemned sinner to a justified man in the eyes of God. Faith in Christ was the means by which a sinner received justification. Human works would not suffice; only Christ's mercy and power could change a person's status from guilty sinner to one clothed with Christ's righteousness. Such is the happy status of all whom Christ calls to himself.
