Righteousness as a Gift (Galatians 2:21)
Galatians 2:21
Righteousness as a Gift
Paul draws a clear line between law and life from the Spirit.
Scripture: Galatians 2:21
I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness were through the law, then Christ died for no purpose.
Thought: Paul writes these words like a dagger into the heart of all religious effort. "I do not nullify the grace of God", as if it were a precious diamond one could carelessly drop. Original: צְדָקָה
Cross-references: Romans 5:1, Hebrews 10:14.
Tiny step
End self-accusation with a clear yes to Christ.
Prayer
Father, thank you that I am righteous in Christ and act from security today.
