Declared by GOD, “Justified”

The Defiled Conscience
"Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. They profess that they know God; but in works they deny Him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate." Titus 1:15-16 (KJV)
His Faithfulness
"It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with Him, we shall also live with Him: if we suffer, we shall also reign with Him: if we deny Him, He also will deny us: if we believe not, yet He abideth faithful: He cannot deny Himself." 2 Timothy 2:11-13 (KJV)
Instruction to the Preacher
"Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

Using the Law Lawfully

Warn, Comfort, Support and Be Patient
"Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all. See that none render evil for evil unto any; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all." 1 Thessalonians 5:14-15 (KJV)
The Effective Work of the Word of GOD
For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe." 1 Thessalonians 2:13 (KJV)
