The Relevance of God's Word

The Favor of God reaches us in His Son Romans 5:20-21:


Romans 5:20 "The law was brought in so that the trespass might increase. But where sin increased, grace increased all the more, 21 so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."

The Favor of God reaches us in His Son:
God's favor never actually reaches us through the Law, because in our own efforts we always fall Short of the Favor of God offered to us in the Law. The favor of God offered to Jesus in the Law, reached Jesus because He was sinless and perfectly obeyed the law. Hence, the Favor of God reaches us Through His only begotten Son; Indeed, His Grace reaches in Jesus' righteousness
