What does Justified Rebel mean?

For those of you who do know me, I am sure that me coming up with a name like this doesn't surprise you. But I will explain it for those who don't.

The word Justified come from the theological term meaning that every human being on earth is unrighteous including me. The only human to live and be completely perfectly righteous was the God-Man Jesus Christ. Now when He died He took on the Wrath from God that was for sinners like you and me and when we come to believe and trust in Christ then we recieve His Righteousness. In short, Jesus took the wrath of His people and His people put on His Righteousness meaning we are now Justified.

The word Rebel should be easier to explain, lol. Well as the Bible us that we are rebellious in nature because since we are in darkness we hate the Light which is Christ. But since I am now saved by the Grace of God, I can I rebel against the worlds standards and desire by the power of the Holy Spirit for the Glory of Jesus Christ.

Don't think now that I am super strong or that I claim to be perfect. But with God's help I can resist temptation more then fall for it. I thank God everyday for His new mercies.

" There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus"- Romans 8:1

Purpose

Well I'm in the blogging world now which is pretty exciting. My purpose of this is to share thoughts about God to what gave me a stomach ache ( The sky is the limit, lol ). But mostly is to provide a place where I can grow in Christian maturity and maybe help people along the way. So welcome to my small little world of .... In a Rebel's mind.
