Righteousness: By Faith, NOT By Law (Romans 9:30-10:13)

Michael Argabrite, February 11, 2024
Part of the Great Is Thy Faithfulness: Romans 9-11 series, preached at a Sunday Morning service

In explaining why so few ethnic Israelites had believed Jesus as the Christ, Paul contrasts two kinds of righteousness, two sources of a right standing with God:

I. Righteousness by works: the empty, impossible attempt to establish righteousness on our own terms, just as Adam and Eve did in the Garden when they tried to clothe themselves.

II. Righteousness by grace through faith: the perfect standing of Jesus with his Father given to us because of his goodness, and not ours.
