    Put on the full armor of God starting with the Belt of Truth, who is Jesus Christ, then put on the Breastplate of Righteousness, which is a clean heart provided by Christ’s sacrifice.

    Jesus is anointed by a sinful woman while eating at the house of Simon the Pharisee. Jesus' conversation with Simon serves as a warning about self-righteousness.

    I. Introduction A. So, Simon invited me to his house for dinner, and I went because I knew some of the best of our society would be there. a. But I also went because I heard he was going to be inviting the man called Jesus. b. If the stories about him are true it’s about time he mingled with ...read more

    Jesus' baptism teaches us about the importance of Biblical baptism in the life of a Christ follower.

    This week I read about a small country church that had just concluded a revival meeting and was conducting a baptism service in the local river on a cold January day. After baptizing the first person, the pastor turned to the man and asked him if the water was cold. “Naw,” the man ...read more

     | 7,023 views

    This message reveals the differences between one who responds to life’s hurts and insults according to righteousness, and those who respond according to revengefulness.

    Righteousness vs. Revengefulness Text: Eph. 4:31-32; Gen. 50:21 Intro: According to Webster’s Dictionary, revenge means, “to inflict damage, injury, or punishment in return for (an injury, insult, etc.) retaliate for.”(1) A shorter, modern-day definition would simply be “payback, settling ...read more

    Making clear His attitude toward the Old Law, Jesus challenged the religious leaders teaching and raised the bar when it came to righteous living.

    Righteousness Begins in the Heart Matthew 5:17-20 To some who were confident of their own righteousness (don’t miss that statement) and looked down on every¬one else, Jesus told this parable: Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.

    Lot - The Struggle Of Righteousness

    Contributed by Timothy Darling on Mar 19, 2009
     | 5,977 views

    The stories in Genesis present Lot in a very negative light, but Peter and Abraham thought he was righteous. It is a time for adjusting our interpretation.

    Lot – The struggle of righteousness Genesis 18:16-33 This is a classic passage because it depicts something that we somehow know we should not do, bargaining with God. Abraham, out of concern for his nephew Lot, in an episode that sounds like an auction, begs God to be merciful. Five times, ...read more

     | 4,359 views

    This is the eight message in a series that examines the reality of our sin problem based on Romans chapters 1-5. This message examines the fact that God declares us righteous based on faith and not works.

    We have a hard time believing that anything is totally free. Whenever we see something free, we immediately assume that there are strings attached. The majority of us have experienced those hidden strings. “You have won a free vacation.” “Download the free clipart.” ...read more

     | 38,234 views

    God calls us to live righteous lives. But Romans tells us that no one is righteous. So, God wants to me to be righteous. I want to be righteous... but no one is righteous so I can’t be righteous. How can that possibly make sense?
