Romans (Program #57) – Righteousness – The Power of the Gospel (1)
Our God is righteous. He is right, He is just, He is righteous in all of His acts. In the redeeming death of Christ, the righteousness of God was not only manifested – it was satisfied. And now this righteousness becomes the power of the gospel.
We are going to see in the next two days that God’s righteousness is the power of the gospel and the foudation of our salvation. This is not a common thought to think of God’s righteousness as the power of the gospel …… what we need to see is not so much the power itself in this particular session; rather, we need to see the reason the gospel is so powerful – powerful enough to be called “the power of God unto salvation”. The reason for the power is that the righteousness of God is revealed in the gospel of God.
