Sunday's sermon: Jesus Christ Was Raised for Our Justification https://www.scottlapierre.org/raised-to-life-for-our-justification/
Romans 4:25 says, “[Jesus Christ] was delivered up for our trespasses and raised to life for our justification.” The first half looks back to Good Friday when Jesus died for our sins. The second half moves to Easter Sunday. This is what we’re celebrating today: Jesus being resurrected for our justification. Justified means, “Declared righteous.” What does this have to do with Jesus’s resurrection? Jesus is our Substitute. He died in our place and took the punishment we deserve. If He stayed dead that would mean He was a sinner and unable to save us. But his resurrection reveals he is our perfect substitute who could die in our place and take the punishment we deserve.

Achan thought his sin was private — that nobody would know and nobody would get hurt. But in Joshua 7, we see that hidden sin always brings painful consequences.
This message reminds us that unconfessed sin affects not only us, but those around us — our families, churches, and communities. Yet through confession and repentance, there’s always mercy and restoration in Christ.
