Thank you, Jay.

Hello @Jay Ross, What have you discovered? In Christ Jesus Chris

Hello @mailmandan, Thank you for your response. If I behave in a manner that causes offence in my daily life, I apologise. Similarly, if I have consciously behaved in a manner which is not Christ-like I apologise to my Heavenly Father, as I would have done to my Father in the flesh. However...

Hello @Ronald Nolette, Yes, our 'standing' before God is sure, for it is based on His promises in Christ Jesus. The righteousness of God has been imputed to us, in Christ Jesus: He has declared us to be 'not guilty'; for the penalty for our sin has been paid by the Lord Jesus Christ Himself...
