For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone that believeth. The word, “End”, in the Greek is translated, “Goal”. Think about a footbal team? They have a playing field with a goal line, goal posts with uprights and a cross bar. To win the game they need to cross the goal line to score points. Their goal is set on the goal line. The law had it’s goal set on Christ! Every human who tried to score on the law lost! You remember that old song, “I fought the law and the law won”! Only at the Cross was the law defeated because it could not stop Christ from scoring for us! His righteousness won the game and beat sin! Sin could not win because sin was not on His team called Trinity! On mortal teams sin was on both sides and all teams lost. So join Christ’s team and let Him lead block for you into paths of righteousness! God Bless! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

Does Justification Make One Inwardly Holy? Romans Chapter 3 Verses 19-20
These verses form a key conclusion in Paul’s argument regarding sin and righteousness. In the previous verses, Paul has quoted the Old Testament to demonstrate man’s sinfulness (vv. 10-18). The “law” (v.19), referring to the Old Testament, was designed to silence all mankind under the conviction that they have nothing to say against the charge of sin. Likewise, the law was intended to convince all men of their guilt, or liability to punishment before God. Paul concludes that since all men are guilty, they cannot be “justified” by their own personal character or conduct (v. 20). Justification is a legal term meaning to remove guilt (liability to punishment) of the sinner. IT DOES NOT INVOLVE MAKING ONE INWARDLY HOLY but merely declares the demands of justice have been satisfied. Hence, there are no grounds for condemnation (Romans 8:1). Not even obediance to the law can justify one before God. Paul reasons, because the very nature of the law is to prove to each person that he or she is sinful and deserves God’s punishment. Thus the purpose of the law is to lead people to renounce THEIR OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS and TRUST in the IMPUTATION OF CHRIST’S RIGHTEOUSNESS as the only grounds for acceptance with God. In Conclusion; The above subject of justification applies to all whether saved or not! Many of us after getting saved through ministries and good works can fall into the trap that it is all the good stuff we do that makes us Holy! If we can remember it is Christ’s Righteousness that has, is and will continue to save us! Thankyou. James Sasse.

Buy One Get Everything Free!
This is better than buying one and getting one free! If you were the only person on earth God still would have purchased your Sin on the Cross by His Blood to set you free!

Christ has made you free to live in Holiness, peace, joy, love, security, assurance, blessing, richness, health, and freedom! The cost of our freedom came at a great cost to Christ on the Cross! His yoke is easy and His burden is light! Source; Pastor Charles, Bangalore India.
Debt!
Proverbs Chapter 22, Verse 7, says; “The rich ruleth over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender”. America is in trouble because of her personal and public debt! We got to our present mess by bad habits! Our culture continues to disregard Biblical values! If any people or nation spends more than it takes in a crisis is just ahead! The only way to stop this is for Americans to get their own house in order and then elect leaders in Washington who live within Biblical values and do not spend more taxes than they take in! Also reduce the tax burden on fellow Americans so they have more to spend to help our economy! Also for the rich to understand that they have an obligation to help the poor and not to take away their hope for a better tomarrow! Jesus paid a debt he did not owe and took upon himself my sin and has brought redemption to my life! I owe a debt I cannot pay and understand His grace did for me what I cannot do for myself! Thankyou. James GodWhoisGod.com
Another Weiner in Washington!
Yes, the hot dog stand is open again in Washington and has cooked up another weiner! The latest ugly head to rise up in Washington is Representative Wu. The good news is that a majority of our leaders do not do this stuff and are Faithful to their families and their country! We do have some representatives who walk around up on the hill like the insane on steroids! The Bible says that those who are faithful in small things are faithful in much! The Bible also says our sins will find us out! We cannot hide from God and we cannot hide from man. Sooner or later who we are will come out! We all need to repent of our sin and turn from our wicked ways! Let God replace your Sin with His righteousness through Jesus Christ our Savior! Thankyou.
Is God gay?
If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. (Leviticus 20:13) You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination. Nor shall you mate with any animal, to defile yourself with it. Nor shall any woman stand before an animal to mate with it, it is perversion. Do not defile yourselves with any of these things; for by all these the nations are defiled, which I am casting out before you. (Leviticus 18:22-24).
