"THE WORKINGS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT: John 16:8-11(And when he comes, he will convince the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment: concerning sin, because they do not believe in me; concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father, and you will see me no more; concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.)

JUSTIFICATION AT THE CROSS – Gal. 3:24

 The justification of sinners from the beginning to the end is by the free grace of God, through the life and death, of Jesus Christ.  The word freely in the original means without cause and this describes the character of those whom God justified for Christ’s sake, at the cross. God declares sinners just (perfectly righteous) on account of the Lord Jesus Christ.  Having fully accomplished the work, all the blessings of forgiveness and pardon were immediately applied to the account of those for whom He finished it.  In time, God causes all whom He has redeemed and justified in Christ to look to Christ alone as their only ground of justification.  They are to believe on Him, and rest on in His work accomplished and applied for them at the cross.  Therefore, we need to look on the redemptive work that Jesus accomplished for us and be grateful always.

Anniversary Song / Hymn

THE OLD RUGGED CROSS

  1. On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
    The emblem of suffering and shame;
    And I love that old cross where the dearest and best
    For a world of lost sinners was slain.
    So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,
    Till my trophies at last I lay down;
    I will cling to the old rugged cross,
    And exchange it some day for a crown.
  2. Oh, that old rugged cross so despised by the world,
    Has a wondrous attraction for me;
    For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above,
    To bear it to dark Calvary.
  3. In the old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine,
    A wondrous beauty I see;
    For ‘twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died,
    To pardon and sanctify me.
  4. To the old rugged cross I will ever be true,
    Its shame and reproach gladly bear;
    Then He’ll call me someday to my home far away, Where His glory for ever I’ll share.

- George Bennard 1913
