—Psalm 33:1-5
by: Susan Bond.
“There are two kinds of righteousness: human self-righteousness and Christ’s righteousness. Man’s majors in law and minors in love. Christ’s majors in love and minors in law. The first majors in what God requires of us; the second, in what God has done for us. The first is a religion that leads to bondage, despair and death; the second, a religion that leads to joy, salvation and life everlasting. The first teaches salvation by faith plus works; the second, that salvation is by a faith that works.
Which kind of righteousness should we seek? The Bible teaches ‘There is none righteous, no, not one’ (Romans 3:10, KJV)” (Letter from F. David Charles to Leland W. Bond).
