Text: Jeremiah 23:5-6, NKJV
Though we live in a culture that conveys that man is inherently good and righteous, the Bible reveals the truth that mankind has no righteousness of our own. Because we have a sinful nature that continually rebels against God, it is impossible for us to achieve righteousness by our own efforts. This reality would lead us to hopelessness and despair if Jehovah Tsidkenu, The Lord Our Righteousness, hadn’t intervened. God graciously sent His righteous and perfect Son, Jesus Christ, to give His life for us so that through His death and resurrection those who believe in Him will be counted righteous in Christ. Do you know Him? Are you living for Him? We invite you to listen today, believe in Jesus, and be counted among the righteous.
