Son revealed in Paul; justified by faith of Christ; sealed in him

Paul goes so far as to anathematize even angels, if they should pervert the gospel of Christ. “But when God, who set me apart from my mother’s womb and called me through his grace, was pleased to reveal his Son in me, that I might proclaim him among the nations, immediately I did not consult with flesh and blood, nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me.” For the one who has once obtained the initiation and revelation from God did not need the tutoring that comes from humans. Yet we ask this: whom did the Father reveal to blessed Paul? Or whom did he command him to proclaim among the nations? Was it God the Word and Only-begotten Son, not united to flesh and become human economically? Then how is that true? For he proclaimed the same one both human and God together, saying one Son and Lord, Jesus Christ.

“But knowing that a human is not justified from works of law except through faith of Jesus Christ, we also believed into Christ Jesus, that we might be justified from faith of Christ and not from works of law.” If believing God had justification as its wage—for those before us were also justified thus; for it is written that Abraham believed God and the faith was reckoned to him unto righteousness—how is Emmanuel not God, if indeed it is true that believing into him we are justified?

From Ephesians. “In whom you also, having heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, in whom also having believed you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, who is a pledge of our inheritance unto redemption of the acquisition, unto praise of his glory.”
