Rom 4:5
But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
Rom 5:6
For when we [The elect] were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
These verses tells us something about the elect ! First that by nature we are ungodly, children of wrath as others..Eph 2:3
3Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
Amen being children of wrath by nature as others is just another way of saying, that we were ungodly..
But one of the Great Gospel doctrines is described in Rom 4:5 is that God justifieth the ungodly..
Now , get this, The elect are Justified before God. by the obedience and righteousness of Jesus christ [Rom 5: 18-19] while we are dead in
tresspasses and sins, while we are by nature children of wrath even as others, and while by lifestyle, ungodly. While we the elect are in this very sinful condition, that we are Justified by Jesus christ blood and clothed in His imputed righteousness, even though we dont know it at the Time, but God knows it , because He is the one who did it..
Rom 8:33-34
33Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.
34Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
You see, most false teachers today think that Rom 8 :33 applies to post conversion, but it also applies to pre conversion, for God Justifieth the ungodly, before they are converted..
Thats why its of grace..Titus 3:7
That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
Its by grace because of the sinful condtion we are in by nature when we are Justified before God .
