You know what's not in this passage 1948 because what son of David started ruling in 1948
That's what I'd like to know
When did they all get saved in 1948? No, that's a fraud that whole, you know, that's a whole nother sermon
But what we see here is Jesus because look at verse number
Six it says in in his days talking about the days when Jesus Christ will rule and reign on this earth in the millennium
In his days Judah shall be saved in Israel shall dwell safely and this is his name
Whereby he shall be called. I love this the Lord our
Righteousness. So what name is Jesus going to be known by the Lord our
Righteousness, let me tell you something. Jesus is our righteousness today when it comes to salvation
The Bible says in Romans chapter 10
It says brethren my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is that they might be saved
For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God
But not according to knowledge for they being ignorant of God's righteousness and going about to establish their own
Righteousness have not submitted themselves under the righteousness
Which is of God for Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone that believeth
What's the Bible saying? He's saying my desire for Israel is that they might be saved. Why are they not saved?
He said because they are going about to establish their own
Righteousness and listen if people today are not saved it's because they're going about to establish their own righteousness
Whether they call themselves Christian or Jew or Muslim
Whatever religious label they go by if they are going about to establish their own righteousness
They are not saved even if they claim. Oh, I'm Christian
No
If they're going about to establish their own righteousness
They need to be saved because Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone that believeth
Paul said and be found in him not having my own righteousness
Which is of the law but that which is through the faith of Christ the righteousness which is of God
By faith and so that righteousness that is imputed unto us when we believe on Jesus Christ
That is our righteousness. That is what gets us into heaven
That's why Jesus said accept your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees
You shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven. Let me tell you something
My righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the Pharisees. I don't care how separated they are because my righteousness is Jesus
That's the righteousness by which we get in heaven. Our righteousnesses are
as filthy rags
But his righteousness being imputed unto us
Will save us and get us into heaven. That's our ticket into heaven is through Christ through his righteousness
So that's why Jesus's name is called the Lord our
Righteousness and if he's not your righteousness, you're not saved
The Bible says salvation is not of works lest any man should boast that means if anybody thinks it's works
They're not saved because they would boast about that and say oh, yeah
I'm going to heaven because I'm such a wonderful person and what does he keep drawing back to when he talks about?
The righteousness that is of the law
What's he referring to they're keeping the commandments?
So a lot of people will have this twisted view where they say
You know, you don't have to do good works to be saved, but you do have to stop doing bad things to be saved
You know, it's not doing works that saves you but you do have to turn from your sins and stop doing those bad things
In order to be safe, but here's the thing. God says keeping the law is your righteousness
and it's a filthy rag and
Keeping the law includes not stealing isn't that keeping the law not fornicating not killing not
Committing adultery. Those are all your righteousness all those commandments that you keep and
So if you tell someone hey
You have to stop doing those that you have to turn from those sins or be willing to reverse this
Here's what you're saying to those people. Hey, your righteousness is going to help save you
Yeah, it's believing in Jesus and a little bit of your righteousness
You know where you're gonna turn from some of these sins and stop doing these things you're gonna you know
Follow the Ten Commandments or whatever. No, it's Christ our righteousness. That's gonna save us
so it says in verse 9 back in Jeremiah 23 and
We need preachers by the way. There are a lot of preachers who are right on salvation
They know it's by faith alone. They know it's by grace. They know it's not of works. They know it's not by the righteousness of the law
But it seems like they're afraid to fight against the false salvation
You know, they'll preach it right that it's by faith. But why won't they go after this repent of your sins crowd?
Why won't they go after this work salvation crowd? Why won't they go after the lose your salvation crowd?
We need some pastors and preachers that are not afraid to throw down and pluck up and break down and destroy these lies
So that they can build and plant that which is correct
