About the Church

Welcome to the new website for Faith Church of Grove, OK! My hope is that through this web site that God would be glorified. The church is God’s messenger on earth to spread the gospel of Christ. We invite you to come and worship with us each Sunday. For we are a community church where the whole gospel is preached in kindness and love. You matter to God and you matter to us.

“Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.”

ECCLESIASTES 4: 12

The Law, Jesus, and The Holy Spirit Day 2

Day 2
Jesus Justified by Faith

All the World Guilty And Justification by Faith

Romans 3:28-29 (NASB)
 28 For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the Law.
29 Or is God the God of Jews only? Is He not the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also, 30 since indeed God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith is one.
31 Do we then nullify the Law through faith? May it never be! On the contrary, we establish the Law.

Salvation In No One But Jesus

Acts 4:12 (NASB)

 12 "And there is salvation in no one else for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved."

Justification by Faith

Romans 3:21-31 (NASB)

 21  But now apart from the Law the righteousness of God has been manifested, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets,
22  even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all those who believe; for there is no distinction;
23  for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
24  being justified as a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus;
25  whom God displayed publicly as a propitiation in His blood through faith. This was to demonstrate His righteousness, because in the forbearance of God He passed over the sins previously committed;
26  for the demonstration, I say, of His righteousness at the present time, so that He would be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.
27  Where then is boasting? It is excluded. By what kind of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith.
28  For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the Law.
29  Or is God the God of Jews only? Is He not the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also,
30  since indeed God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith is one.
31  Do we then nullify the Law through faith? May it never be! On the contrary, we establish the Law.

We are not justified by works

Galatians 2:15-17 (NASB)

15  "We are Jews by nature and not sinners from among the Gentiles;
16  nevertheless knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the Law but through faith in Christ Jesus, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, so that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the Law; since by the works of the Law no flesh will be justified.
17  "But if, while seeking to be justified in Christ, we ourselves have also been found sinners, is Christ then a minister of sin? May it never be!

Faith Brings Righteousness

Galatians 3:10-14 (NASB)
10  For as many as are of the works of the Law are under a curse; for it is written, "CURSED IS EVERYONE WHO DOES NOT ABIDE BY ALL THINGS WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF THE LAW, TO PERFORM THEM."
11  Now that no one is justified by the Law before God is evident; for, "THE RIGHTEOUS MAN SHALL LIVE BY FAITH."
12  However, the Law is not of faith; on the contrary, "HE WHO PRACTICES THEM SHALL LIVE BY THEM."
13  Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us—for it is written, "CURSED IS EVERYONE WHO HANGS ON A TREE"—
14  in order that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles, so that we would receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
