This is the audio from the June 21, 2026 sermon, “Summer With the Son: Being Righteous!”, shared by Tom Lemler at the Deer Run Church of Christ.
Matthew 5:17-20
“Not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ — the righteousness that comes from God and is by faith.”
Philippians 3:9 (NIV)
Being Righteous is possible when we understand how God cleanses us from all unrighteousness so that we are . . .
-
Reminded: Matthew 5:17
- Having a righteousness in Christ involves being reminded of the inability of the law to save us and thus our need for a Savior.
-
Intentional: Matthew 5:18
- Having a righteousness in Christ is possible when we are intentional about pursing a relationship with Him through faith.
-
Good: Matthew 5:19
- Having a righteousness in Christ changes our view of good from being based on what we do to being a product of whose we are.
-
Honest: Matthew 5:19
- Having a righteousness in Christ will cause us to be honest with God, with our self, and with others about the nature of our relationship and obedience to Christ.
-
Transformed: Matthew 5:20
- Having a righteousness in Christ comes as we are transformed in our way of thinking so that our righteousness indeed exceeds that of the Pharisees because it has a different source.
