Big Idea: The gospel plus nothing justifies us
1. The law can’t justify us because we’re all sinful (Rom 3:9-20)
- Everyone is a sinner
- The law teaches us how sinful we are
2. The good news is that Jesus came to justify sinners (Rom 3:21-26)
- Jesus’ arrival shows God’s righteousness
- Jesus’ arrival shows God’s grace
3. So, we trust in Jesus and not the law to justify us (Rom 3:27-31)
- Faith in Jesus, not our works, justifies us
- Everyone can be justified through faith in Jesus
