The concept of "through Him" emphasizes the mediatory role of Christ in salvation. In John 14:6, Jesus declares, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." This underscores the belief that Jesus is the sole pathway to reconciliation with God, fulfilling the messianic prophecies of the Old Testament, such as Isaiah 53, which speaks of the suffering servant who would bear the sins of many. everyone who believes is justified from everything from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses Persons / Places / Events 1.

Jesus Christ The central figure through whom justification is offered, fulfilling what the law could not accomplish. Teaching Points Justification by FaithEmphasize that justification, or being declared righteous before God, is available to everyone who believes in Jesus Christ. This is a gift of grace, not earned by adherence to the law. The Limitations of the Law The law of Moses, while holy and good, was never intended to be the means of salvation. It reveals sin but cannot remove it. Only through Christ can we be truly justified. The Universality of the Gospel The message of justification through Christ is for everyone, regardless of background or previous adherence to the law. This underscores the inclusive nature of the Gospel. Freedom in Christ Believers are freed from the burden of trying to earn righteousness through the law. This freedom should lead to a life of gratitude and service, not a license to sin. Faith and Works While justification is by faith alone, true faith will naturally produce good works. These works are the fruit of a transformed life, not the means to earn salvation.(39) And by him.--Literally, in Him, as the sphere in which forgiveness was found, rather than as the instrument through whom it came. All that believe are justified.--Literally, with a more individualising touch, every one that believeth is justified. The latter verb is not found elsewhere in the Acts. It is interesting to note in this, the first recorded example of St. Paul's teaching, the occurrence of the word which, as time passed on, came to be almost identified with him and with his work. It is clearly used, as interpreted by the "forgiveness of sins" in the context, in its forensic sense, as meaning "acquitted," "declared not guilty." (Comp. Note on Matthew 12:37.) From which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.--The words are full of meaning, as the germ of all that was most characteristic in St. Paul's later teaching. The Law, with its high standard of righteousness (Romans 7:12), its demand of entire obedience, its sacrifices which bore witness to the burden of sin, yet had no power to liberate conscience from its thraldom (Hebrews 8:1-3), had taught him that its function in the spiritual life of man was to work out the knowledge of sin (Romans 7:7), not to emancipate men from it. The sense of freedom from guilt, and therefore of a true life, was to be found, as he had learnt by his own experience, through faith in Christ. "The just by faith shall live" (Habakkuk 2:4; Romans 1:17; Galatians 3:11). . . . Verse 39. - Every one that believeth is for all that believe are, A.V. Here, then, is the great gospel message of grace, "the gospel of the grace of God," as St. Paul speaks in Acts 20:24; the proclamation, consequent upon the death and resurrection of the Lord Jesus, of a free and full forgiveness of sins to all that repent and believe the gospel (Acts 20:21); see Acts 2:38; Acts 3:19; Acts 4:12; Acts 5:31; Colossians 1:14, etc., and Matthew 1:21; Luke 1:77. Note, too, how adroitly the apostle points out the superiority of the gospel which he was preaching to them over the Law, and the pre-eminence of Christ over Moses.Parallel Commentaries ...
