52. The Gift of God's Righteousness

This time I'm doing a teaching that's a bit longer than normal for the Grace Roots podcast, although it's a very simple teaching. The Apostle Paul reveals to us that the righteousness of God is something that we can never earn or maintain through keeping God's law or through our good works. The good news is that while we were sinners, and had never done anything good, and had never done anything right, God made us right by giving us His very own righteousness. This could never be accomplished through the law. It's something that can only come from God. He gives it to us freely, by His grace, through faith, not our works.

44. Saved by Grace Through Faith Apart from Works

We are saved by grace, through faith, apart from works.  If our works have anything to do with it, then it's no longer grace.  When we were saved, we were saved despite having had bad works.  Now, we still have bad works sometimes, but those bad works don't "unsave" us.  Otherwise, it would no longer be grace by which we're saved.  We're saved either by grace or works, but it can't be both.
