The world is under God’s “judgment”
Ever since “Adam’s fall”,
God’s “justice” does not excuse sin
Absolutely no sin at all.
Hence God’s judgment on sin
And on the entire world:
Remember sin is any “transgression”
As shown in God’s Holy Word.
But God demonstrated His mercy
When He sent Jesus, His Son
To break all of sin’s shackles
And bring us glorious “freedom”.
This speaks of our redemption
And our freedom from sin’s bondage,
Making Jesus our kinsman “Redeemer”
That relieved us of sin’s luggage.
In Christ we are set apart
This in fact is our “sanctification”:
It is the work of the Holy Spirit
That follows our “justification”.
In Christ we are made “righteous”
And set apart for God’s holy use,
It is “just as if I’d” never sin,
Satan has no grounds to accuse.
