The Gospel Is… Offensive• To those who believe: wisdom & power
Romans 3:23–26 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified as a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus… so that [God] would be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.
