20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
KJV
Most of the time we have a problem it cost us something, often great amounts, to get it fixed or solved. You have car trouble, you pay the garage. You have a plumbing problem, you pay the plumber. You have a medical problem, you pay the doctor. Most of the time we have a problem it costs something to have it fixed. We have no greater problem than the sin problem because from sin stem all the other problems of life. What will it cost to get that fixed, what will it cost to fix the sin problem? Verse 24 has the answer, we can be justified freely in Christ. The sin problem can be solved and it can only be solved in Jesus Christ and that justification is offered freely to all. Think of that for a moment, if you had the answer for all the worlds problems, and only you had that answer, what would you charge for those who came to you? Jesus, although He and He alone is the answer, charges nothing at all. I challenge you today to stop and think of all that Jesus Christ has done for you. Go back to the cross and see Him there, see the price paid for redemption, the price paid for the sin problem. Take some time then to just think of all He ahs done and is doing for you from the time you were saved. Then think of what He charges. If this does not make you bow before Him and thank Him, if this does not make you thankful for salvation is a deep, deep way, then you need to be sure you are saved.
