Jehovah Tsidkenu

Passage: Jeremiah 23:1-6

Preacher: Bob Grove

Series:Name Above All Names

Detail:

Why do we need “Jehovah our Righteousness”?
   1.  Because our sin makes us unrighteous.
          Ecclesiastes 7:20
          Romans 10:10–12
          Psalm 53:2–3

   2.  Because our righteousness comes from Jesus.
          2 Corinthians 5:21
          1 Corinthians 1:26-31
          Romans 3:21–24; 4:2–5

How to detect self-righteousness
   •  We dismiss criticism.
   •  We justify ourselves.
   •  We blame others.
   •  We can't apologize.
   •  We never confess our sins.

How to live in God's righteousness
   •  Trust Christ alone for your righteousness.
   •  Start your day thanking God for His forgiveness.
   •  Walk in holiness as a response to grace.
