20/20 Focus on JESUS

20/20 Focus on JESUS
Each day we need to keep our eyes focused on JESUS - 20/20! I am sorry that I did not continue this blog into the beginning of 2021. Nine months passed by before I was convicted to return to this blog and encourage us to look at JESUS, with clear vision, via a daily scripture reading. Yellow highlights are names/descriptions of JESUS that we'll add to the list on the right.

2020 for JESUS - Day 236: JESUS is GOD... GOD'S RIGHTEOUSNESS...

Romans 3:1-8 The Faithfulness of God -




Romans 3:1-8

What advantage, then, is there in being a Jew, or what value is there in circumcision? 
Much in every way! First of all, the Jews have been entrusted with the very words of GOD.
What if some were unfaithful? Will their unfaithfulness nullify GOD’s faithfulness? 
Not at all! Let GOD be true, and every human being a liar. As it is written:
‘So that you may be proved right when you speak
    and prevail when you judge.’
But if our unrighteousness brings out GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS more clearly, what shall we say? That GOD is unjust in bringing HIS wrath on us? (I am using a human argument.) 
Certainly not! If that were so, how could GOD judge the world? 
Someone might argue, ‘If my falsehood enhances GOD’s truthfulness and so increases HIS glory, why am I still condemned as a sinner?’ 
Why not say—as some slanderously claim that we say—'Let us do evil that good may result’? Their condemnation is just!
