Titus 3:4-7
4 But when the kindness and the love of God our Savior toward man appeared,
5 not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit,
6 whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior,
7 that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
(NKJ)
XXX What justifies us with God is when we stand on His Word and not our own words. I dont mean standing on the interpretation of His Word. But actually quoting Gods Word. Because then we are following the Holy Spirit because the Holy Spirit only quotes Gods Word to us. A man is justified by works, and not by faith only.
Acts 13:38-39
