Lesson 232: GARMENT OF RIGHTEOUNESS

INTRODUCTION:
The garment of successful soldiers receives medal of success, so also God gives garment of righteousness to sinners who repent. In this study we want to look on the qualification to wear the garment, and what is this garment of righteousness. May the Lord teach us today, as we study at His feet in Jesus Name. Amen

1. WHAT IS THIS GARMENT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

It is a garment that can only be given by God. Better than the righteousness of man. It must be kept clean, cannot be burnt by fire. Only for the over comers, punishment is waiting for those who failed to wear the garment.
