Breastplate of Righteousness Explained
- The breastplate of righteousness represents our position in Christ's righteousness, protecting our spiritual heart and vital organs.
- This righteousness is not ours but imputed to us by Jesus' perfect life and sacrifice.
Human Righteousness Is Insufficient
- Our righteous acts, apart from Christ, are like filthy rags compared to God's perfect holiness.
- Human good deeds cannot earn righteousness or entry to heaven.
Imputed Righteousness by Faith
- Through the great exchange on the cross, Jesus took on our sins and imputes his righteousness to us by faith.
- This position of righteousness is secure and cannot be taken by Satan.
