Arguably the Most Important Sentence in Scripture

Arguably the most important sentence in scripture, it begins and ends with God. It is one complete and perfect thought from beginning to end. It speaks of the Father, the Son, and is Holy Spirit inspired; it is the words of God.
It holds seven key truths about God and man’s relationship to God:

1. That God is Holy
2. That man is radically depraved and worthy of all condemnation
3. That God is a Just Judge
4. That God is Love
5. That God is Merciful
6. That man is justified only by the free Grace of God through faith
7. That God is Righteous

It is good news; it is the gospel of Jesus Christ. I hold it dear to my heart reflecting on it often throughout the day, and it comforts me through the night. Thank you LORD for your merciful grace upon me a sinner, worthy of all condemnation.

“For there is no difference; for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had past over the sins that were previously committed, to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.”
