Chapter 6: They Misunderstand what it Means to be Righteo...

What this episode covers

One of the most common and dangerous mistakes we can make is to think that we are righteous when, in fact, we are not. The Pharisees, for example, were convinced that they were in good standing with God. They performed religious duties and took part in acts of ministry. Unfortunately, while these actions are good, this is not a sign of true righteousness, and the Pharisees bore the brunt of Jesus’s most intense criticism. God doesn’t want us to do righteous deeds, he wants us to be righteous people. In this chapter, Don explains what that means and how it is accomplished.

We're your hosts, Marcus and Jessa Myer - a husband-and-wife team passionate about pursuing and telling the Truth. The more we study Scripture, the more we experience the ever-growing joy and pleasure found only in Jesus.

In each episode, we explore theology, doctrine, and practical wisdom that every believer should have the confidence to pursue. Join us as we uncover essential truths from Scripture and tackle difficult, sometimes controversial questions to provide you with biblical answers. Where the Enemy wants to keep the Church in a place of shallow faith and theological insecurity, our hope is that these conversations will equip you with boldness and assurance! Now, let’s grow deeper together
