Glory be to God! ** 🙋🏾♀️ STAY TUNED UNTIL THE VERY END OF THIS EPISODE! ** 🚩TUNE IN EVERY 2 TO 3 DAYS FOR NEW EPISODES! Follow me on Facebook under AuntCynthia Whitaker 😊💥 Join me today on the podcast (link below) as I discuss: The bad news is that true and perfect righteousness is not possible for man to attain on his own; the standard is simply too high! The good news is that true righteousness is possible for mankind, but only through the cleansing of sin by Jesus Christ and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. We have no ability to achieve righteousness in and of ourselves. But born-again again believers possess the righteousness of Christ, because “God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God” (2 Corinthians 5:21). This is an amazing truth!! On the cross, Christ Jesus exchanged our sin for His perfect righteousness so that we can one day, stand before Holy God and He will see not our sin, but the holy righteousness of the Lord Jesus! Amen!
This means that we are made righteous in the sight of God; that is, that we are accepted as righteous and treated as righteous by God on account of what the Lord Jesus has done. He was made sin; we are made righteousness. On the cross, Jesus was treated as if He were a sinner, though He was perfectly holy and pure, and we are treated as if we were righteous, though we are defiled and depraved! On account of what the Lord Jesus has endured on our behalf, we are treated as if we had entirely fulfilled the Law of God and had never become exposed to its penalty. We have received this precious gift of righteousness from the God of all mercy and grace. To Him be the glory!
And sadly, this sin-laden, vile, deceitful world says "NO!" to this wonderful Good News! Listen as I share an account of when preaching the Gospel to a lost soul who is dying from cancer, this hypocritical world says, "don't do that!" "She's going through enough already!!" You will see just how hypocritical their comments were in response. They say they have love for this person, but have no problem watching this person die in their sins! SMH! And this is what makes the preaching of the Gospel in this present evil age all the more critical, as we see history culminating and human beings dying every SINGLE day in their sins - GOING STRAIGHT TO A BURNING ! Nonetheless, the Gospel will go forth! Amen! 🎯 REPENT and BELIEVE and TURN back to God!
