The God Of Righteousness
Dr. Warren W. Wiersbe | May 29, 1977Selected highlights from this sermon
We live in a society made up of individuals with sick hearts—hearts tainted by sin. Our greatest need is for righteousness—not riches, not popularity or fame. Jesus Christ is the only way we can attain the righteousness that God demands of us. Through Christ’s righteousness, we can glorify God, which is the only thing that matters.
What kind of righteousness do you have?
Transcripts for Dr. Wiersbe's sermons are forthcoming. Below is an outline of his message.
The only question we should be asking about our decisions is, “Is it right?” not, “Is it safe?” or “Is it popular?”
God does not compromise His standards.
In heaven, no one is going to ask you if you were popular or rich. The question is going to be whether you glorified God by doing what is right.
