The death of Jesus Christ for our sins was necessary. For we cannot secure the blessing of salvation by virtue of our own righteousness.  Either we receive the GIFT of salvation FREELY, or do without it.  The apostle Paul illustrates this reality when he looks back in history.  Romans chapter four Simply put: Salvation is Christ Crucified; God Satisfied; The Believer Justified.

The apostle Paul articulates that salvation by grace is the driving instinct of the Believer and will always stimulate affection for an unswerving love for the Word of God.
