None Righteous, But One!
from TRUTH, TRUTHhttp://legacy.sermonaudio.com/rss_search.asp?keyword=TRUTH on SermonAudio Hosted by Rev. Mitchell C. Dick
This sermon reflects on the Reformation by examining the doctrine of total depravity as presented in Romans 3, emphasizing that no individual, society, or church possesses inherent righteousness before God. The preacher argues that humanity's fallen state, originating in Eden, renders all self-made efforts to establish peace or moral standing futile, a truth that historically dismantled the pride of the Roman Empire and the Church of Rome. By citing Old Testament scriptures such as Psalm 14 and Ecclesiastes, the message underscores the universality of sin and the impossibility of achieving salvation through the works of the law. However, the sermon pivots to the gospel truth that while there is none righteous among men, there is one righteous God who provides Jesus Christ as the sole source of justification. This theological framework calls believers to abandon self-reliance and trust exclusively in the imputed righteousness of Christ, finding peace and confidence in the grace of God alone.
