A Righteousness Acceptable to God

"...A ND BE FOUND IN HIM , not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith." - PHILIPPIANS 3:9 [KJV] Here are the two righteousnesses clearly laid down, in one or other of which we must all stand before God—the righteousness which is of the law, and the righteousness which is of God by faith in Christ. But bear this in mind, that a righteousness to be available before God must be a perfect righteousness .

Only when we understand by faith that the guilt and penalty of our sin has been dealt with justly in the death of our Substitute will we renounce all human means to satisfy God and look to the righteousness He provides in Christ. By looking to Christ and His finished work of righteousness the conscience is purged, purified and satisfied! - Gospel report by preacher Gary Shepard Sovereign Grace Baptist church of Jacksonville, North Carolina USA Please find enclosed link to Audio Gospel Sermons & Contact Info: https://www.sermonaudio...
