Ephesians 6:14 — “Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness.” A soldier’s breastplate protected his vital organs, it was a lifesaving piece of armour. So is righteousness to the Christian.
In this sermon, we think about what righteousness is and about how it’s something we desperately lack. We are reminded that it’s God who gives us righteousness, on account of what His Son accomplished for us. We then see the way in which this righteousness protects us from two of Satan’s most powerful attacks.
