The Lord our Righteousness-Whitefield

Another sermon on Jeremiah 23:6 and specifically the phrase "JEHOVAH TSIDKENU" that is worthy of scrutiny was preached by George Whitefield. The text of the sermon can be found here at The Bible Bulletin Board. In this sermon Whitefield "proposes, through divine grace,

• I. To consider who we are to understand by the word Lord.
• II. How the Lord is man's righteousness.
• III. I will consider some of the chief objections that are generally urged against this doctrine.
• IV. I shall show some very ill consequences that flow naturally from denying this doctrine.
• V. Shall conclude with an exhortation to all to come to Christ by faith, that they may be enabled to say with the prophet in the text, "The Lord our righteousness."

The sermon is a bit lengthy, but certainly worth the investment of your time.
