BY FAITH ALONE!

Galatians 3:2 – Devotional

Galatians 3:2

“This only I want to learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

I remember working with my dad building houses. Sometimes when we were fitting pieces of framing together, the ends might be a fraction of an inch off. I would hear my dad say, “Close enough.” I fear that many people are prone to apply that same attitude to their spiritual lives.

Just what is close enough in the spiritual realm? The answer is perfection. The second question is; whose perfection? It is certainly not ours. I have known thousands of people in my life and not one of them was or is perfect.

Do you think you can be good enough to make it to heaven? Most unsaved people will answer “Yes.” On the authority of God’s word we know that it is impossible to be good enough to assure an entrance into heaven!

It is not our own perfection that we need, but the perfection of Christ. He paid it all in our behalf. We can never be good enough in ourselves, but Jesus was good enough for all of us. By faith alone we need Him to provide us with salvation.

Blessings dear hearts! Walk with God today and be a blessing!
