A Devotion for your drive into work:  If God alone justifies those who trust in Christ, why weigh yourself down with self-justification, defensiveness, or religious achievement today? Drawing from Romans 3:21–26 and Galatians 2, Pastor Brian Noble clarifies the biblical terms “just” (God’s perfect righteousness) and “justifier” (the one who makes people righteous). The gospel proclaims that justification is not by works but by faith in Christ’s finished work; to attempt self-justification is to “nullify the grace of God.” Believers are called to live crucified with Christ—dead to old sin and alive to God’s Spirit—so there is no need for defensiveness, fear, or comparison. The public square application: enter every conversation and mission field assured that God’s acceptance and justification are secure, and let this confidence lead to love, humility, and courageous gospel witness to all. We are transforming our hearts so we can shape the public square.
