The Lord our Righteousness

by George Whitefield

Audiobook available in the app
A powerful evangelistic sermon on Jeremiah 23:6, preached during the Great Awakening in Glasgow (1741). Whitefield passionately argues that sinners cannot be saved by their own moral efforts but only through the imputed righteousness of Christ. He dismantles objections from those who accuse this doctrine of undermining morality, showing instead that true good works flow from faith. The sermon culminates in an urgent appeal to embrace Christ's righteousness as the only foundation for acceptance before God.
