Romans 5 doesn't minimise this. It faces it honestly — and then shows you the only remedy that is equal to the disease: the cross.Discipledeck devotionThe Gift CardReligion is 'I obey so God will love me.' Gospel is 'God loves me, so I obey.' Stop trying to pay a bill that Jesus already covered.DiscipleDeck devotionThe Hammer and the DoorThe Reformation unchained the Bible. The best way to honor that history is to read it. Open your Bible to Romans 3:21-26 today. It is the "Magna Carta" of the Christian faith. Read it slowly and thank God that you don't have to crawl to get to Him.Discipledeck devotionThe Dirty Shirt and the Royal RobeJesus didn't just clean you; He traded places with you. He wore your dirty rags so you could wear His royal robe. You are accepted today not because of your behavior, but because of your new clothes.DiscipleDeck devotionThe Gift, Not the WageReligion says "I obey, therefore I am accepted." The Gospel says "I am accepted, therefore I obey." The order matters. If you are working for salvation, you are a slave. If you are working from salvation, you are a son.
