have faith, you're forgiven, & it's not by works

Romans 3

v28

Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.

I have 3 thoughts from Romans 3:

1. First, that I really need to focus on having faith, and believing in the Lord:

   v22

   Even the righteousness of God [which is] by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:

2. Secondly, once again, that our justification is not by the things that we ourselves do:

   v24

   Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

3. And finally, that I have been justified, and I need to remember that my past sins are forgiven and gone:

   v25

   Whom God hath set forth [to be] a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;

Praise the Lord.
