What are the Benefits? Part ONE

Paid vacation, paid sick leave, 401K, and stock options are all benefits that you might have in certain jobs.  Then there are other benefits that might not be mentioned when you first decide to take the job or join the group.  Wellness program, education program, discount program.

Maybe being part of this organization has the potential to bring other things that you may have never thought possible. 
Today we begin a Four Part Series exploring the benefits of justification in the believer’s life.

Romans 5:1-2 NASB  Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,  (2)  through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we exult in hope of the glory of God.
One benefit which is sometimes overlooked is proper work environment.  We like to have policy that guarantees no strive between the employee and the boss.  Paul tells us that we have this.  He plainly states in verse one that we have peace with God through Jesus Christ.

When we are saved, the war is over and all enmity between our soul and God has been removed.  We have been changed from foes to friends.  How much easier is it to work for someone when there is no friction between you and the boss.
The next benefit is an open door policy.  We have access to God.  When we believe in Jesus we are brought in as sons and daughters.  We rejoice in hope of the glory of God.  We know without a doubt that one day we will see the fullness of God.  We cannot comprehend this here on earth and we won’t get over the wonder of it through all eternity.

Next week we will look at the Professional Development Program.
