"But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:"

Jesus is what makes us righteous, holy, and saved. Let's break down those words from church. Righteousness is being able to stand in front of God and be told you are not guilty. Holiness is a person's personality and actions that reflect the glory and holiness of heaven. Redemption is the gift of freedom that cost a lot to buy. Christians aren't always good. Hmm! This is true, we know. But we also know that God sees us as righteous, holy, and saved because of what Jesus did for us. That, my dear friend in Jesus, is what we call amazing grace.

We have a saving relationship with Jesus because of God's grace. Jesus is our Lord and Savior. As Christians, we know that Jesus' death on the cross was more than just a terrible injustice and the killing of a good man. Jesus is God's wisdom, and it is His wisdom that shows us how much He loves us. Jesus is our righteousness. He made us righteous by taking our sins upon Himself. Jesus is the one who keeps us holy. His blood washed us clean from the start, and it still does so today. Jesus is what makes us holy, and His death makes us righteous. Jesus is the price we had to pay to be saved from sin and death. Jesus is the only thing we need.
