For taking your time to study remain blessed. THE POWER OF SALVATION THURSDAY FEBRUARY 9 TEXT: ROMANS 10:1-13 Key verse: “For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy” Romans 9:15-16. God is the foundation and basis of man’s salvation. He accomplished the salvation of man in Jesus Christ on the cross of Calvary. The apostles stressed the importance of salvation through Jesus when they said, “neither is there salvation in any other, for there is none other name under heaven…”. Christ is the sole source of our salvation via His sinless life and His substitutionary atonement; He shed his blood for the remission of our sins. Only a perfect, complete and incorruptible righteousness can secure a perfect and complete salvation, and this we find in Christ. It is surprising how many people do not care to know the source of power for their salvation. They go about to establish their own righteousness and have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. Human efforts, no matter how good it is, cannot justify man before the righteous God. The only way to receive God’s blessing is for the barrier of sin to be destroyed, and the only source of power in existence to destroy it is in Christ. Salvation does not have its source, foundation and actual accomplishment in the willing or the working of any man. It is remarkable that sinning youth generally are ignorant of God’s righteousness. They fail to understand the conditions on which God can treat them as righteous. They constantly make effort to do something of their own to give them relief and to shut out the voice of their consciences. They can never earn salvation by their self-righteousness, they can never earn salvation by just being moral, they can never earn salvation by the service they render in the church, ministry, school fellowship or on other good things they do. They cannot satisfy the holy God by their own power. The ground of salvation is a righteousness that satisfies God’s justice; and it must be a righteousness that permanently constitutes the sinner acceptable to God through Jesus. He is the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world. We are justified by faith that is through Christ; it is accepting, receiving and resting upon Christ alone for salvation. Thought for the day: The ground of salvation is righteousness that satisfies God’s justice in Christ. Song for the day: In the hollow, of His hand (2x), I am safe whatever may betide me. . . Bible reading for the day: Leviticus 7-9; Matthew 25:31-46 #horemow.
