Week 7: Friday Discipleship

  • 1 John 2:1-2

    My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world.

  • Psalm 103:10-12

    He does not deal with us according to our sins,
        nor repay us according to our iniquities.
    For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
        so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him;
    as far as the east is from the west,
        so far does he remove our transgressions from us.

  • Q-How can we, who have all sinned, be justified and made righteous before God?

    A-We are justified and made righteous before God solely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God presented as a sacrifice of atonement. This righteousness is received through faith in Jesus Christ, apart from any works or adherence to the law.

  • Isaiah 53:5

    But he was pierced for our transgressions;
        he was crushed for our iniquities;
    upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,
        and with his wounds we are healed.

  • *Establish a rhythm of cultivating devotion to Jesus.

    *Learn and internalize the Bible memory verse.

    *Commit the catechism to memory.
