Pastor Joey Bonafacio gave us a very clear view
As the good news of Jesus series he did continue
He titled it "Our insatiable appetite for approval”
Our need for justification, there can be no removal
Our need for approval means we continually search
A historical need for acceptance even with a church
A need to prove ourselves can not be self-attained
And a need to be whole will always leave us drained
There are several problems with self-justification
It is exhausting, often leaving us with nothing to give
It is demanding emotionally, physically, and mentally
A never ending cycle - unsustainable fundamentally
The good news of Jesus through the Bible is seen
We are justified by faith, per Galatians two sixteen
We are also justified to be saved, per Romans one
We are justified to be sanctified, all of us bar none
