Wrong is Always Wrong

Wrong is wrong, regardless of whether it is legal, you get caught doing it, you do it for the right reasons, someone else influences you, or the other person is doing even worse.

Sermon: Self-Righteousness

Self-Righteousness

Self-Righteousness is sinful. It is the outgrowth of arrogance. However, what many believe to be self-righteousness is not. It is not carefully obeying God’s law. It is not zeal and dedication to the Lord. It is not reproving and rebuking sin, and refusing to fellowship it. We need to differentiate between self-righteousness, and the righteousness of God!
