War in Heaven

First Presbyterian Church of Baton Rouge

The revolution that became the Protestant Church was the discovery that Scripture teaches us to rely on Christ alone. We depend solely on the merits of Christ. I merit nothing. I am joined to Christ by faith, so that his merits become my own, and I am free from having to work for spiritual rewards. Jesus is good enough on my behalf. Now I can joyfully respond in thanks by living for Jesus’ whose merits alone save me.
