You probably think this is about cultural icon Michael Jackson, the so-called "king of pop," who was just declared "not guilty" on all counts.

No, I am talking about us, those of us who believe on the Lord Jesus Christ!  Even though we are actually guilty on all counts of violating God's Law, God declares us "not guilty."

"For all have sinned; all fall short of God’s glorious standard. Yet now God in his gracious kindness declares us not guilty. He has done this through Christ Jesus, who has freed us by taking away our sins. For God sent Jesus to take the punishment for our sins and to satisfy God’s anger against us. We are made right with God when we believe that Jesus shed his blood, sacrificing his life for us... " (Romans 3:23-25, NLT).

I don't know whether Michael Jackson is shouting or not, but he should be.  He had a great defense advocate.

For us, we definitely should be shouting!  We have the best Advocate in the universe, who has never lost a case.
