Episode notes
Shame Rooted In Eden
- Nakedness became linked to shame from the fall in Eden and marks human self-awareness of guilt.
- R.C. Sproul shows that covering ourselves with garments is a symptom of our fallen condition.
Judgment Exposes Our Clothing
- Scripture often depicts judgment as exposure and stripping of garments to reveal sin.
- Sproul connects this imagery to our need to be unclothed of false righteousness before God.
Seek Christ’s Righteousness
- Do not rely on your own righteousness, which Sproul calls 'rotten rags.'
- Come to Christ to be clothed with His righteousness if you expect to stand before a holy God.
