The document discusses five truths from Romans 3:23-28 about how Christians relate to God. The truths are: 1) Christians are not guilty but declared not guilty by God, 2) All of a Christian's sins have been taken away by Jesus, 3) Jesus paid the punishment for a Christian's sins, 4) A person is made right with God through faith and believing in Jesus, and 5) Christians are made right through faith alone rather than good deeds and works.

2. Romans 3:23-28 – For all have
sinned; all fall short of God’s
glorious standard. 24Yet now God in
his gracious kindness declares us
not guilty. He has done this through
Christ Jesus, who has freed us by
taking away our sins.

3. 25For God sent Jesus to take the
punishment for our sins and to
satisfy God’s anger against us. We
are made right with God when we
believe that Jesus shed his blood,
sacrificing his life for us.

4. God was being entirely fair and just
when he did not punish those who
sinned in former times. 26And he is
entirely fair and just in this present
time when he declares sinners to be
right in his sight because they
believe in Jesus.

5. 27Can we boast, then, that we have
done anything to be accepted by
God? No, because our acquittal is
not based on our good deeds. It is
based on our faith. 28So we are
made right with God through faith
and not by obeying the law. NLT
