How God Accepts You

God accepts you through his Son Jesus Christ. Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God (Romans 15:7 NIV). Christ is the way for you to be completely acceptable to God. He died for your sins. He gives you his righteousness. He gives you the everlasting love of God. That's how you are accepted by God through faith in Christ. 

Jesus is the way all believers are accepted by God. Trusting Christ brings total acceptance with God. He will never reject you, because you believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. God is well pleased with his Son. You are well pleasing to God in Christ alone. Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:1 NIV).

Know that you are fully accepted by God as a believer in Christ. Jesus Christ died on the cross to take away all your sins. By faith you receive his righteousness placed upon your account. By faith you have received his gift of eternal life. You are acceptable to God and free from all condemnation.

Share the good news of Jesus with someone today. Tell others that God forgives all our sins in Christ. Be sure to tell them how God accepted you by faith in Christ. Accept others as Christ accepted you.
