As finite humans, we have limitations and tendencies that cause struggles in living the Christian life. A turning point in my life involved the recognition that my flesh clouds my perspective on important truth.
The Record of Debt
In this week’s episode we discuss the powerful truth that we learn in Paul’s letter to the Colossian church when he says, “having forgiven us all our trespasses, by cancelling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross.” This reference and others in Scripture clearly state that those who are in Christ are forgiven for all sins; past, present, and future.
This is a jolting truth that we struggle to believe. Some fear that this could lead to hyper-grace or antinomianism. Scripture teaches us, however, to focus on “the things that are above.” These beautiful truths are evidence of the very nature, the essence of God. All means all. We can rest in our judicial acquittal because of the finished work of Jesus Christ. And that truth prompts us to live lives of obedience to our Lord rather than continuing in the captivity of the sin that we once celebrated.
The Finished Work of Jesus Christ
The result in our lives is humility. We humbly worship the God who saved us and has forgiven us when we grasp these beautiful truths. This is the basis for our living lives that glorify God. This is the basis for our eternal confidence before Him. Jesus Christ is preeminent, and we can rest in Him.
