BLESSINGS TO THOSE TAKING IN RIGHTEOUSNESS,
I went back and searched the scriptures for the verses that had set our hearts ablaze in our Saturday morning Bible study for the three of us.
We had been discussing that the Jews under Judaism and many gentiles think that by doing Good Works we are made Righteous.
What we saw in Jeremiah was something totally different!!!
Jeremiah 23:5-6 NKJV
“Behold, the days are coming,” says the LORD, “That I will raise to David a Branch of righteousness; A King shall reign and prosper, And execute judgment and righteousness in the earth. In His days Judah will be saved, And Israel will dwell safely; Now this is His name by which He will be called: THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.
INCOMING SALVO…IN GRACE & KNOWLEDGE OF CHRIST…16 JAN. A.D. 2023
Counting it all joy IN CHRIST,
Ron
