May 5, 2024
Stephen McHarg explores the concept of righteousness in Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, defining it as "whole person behavior that accords with God's nature, will, and coming kingdom." He examines various contrasts of righteousness in Matthew's Gospel and emphasizes that true righteousness goes beyond external adherence to the law, focusing instead on internal purity and right relationships with both God and others.
