Christ, the True Temple: David’s Covenant Fulfilled

| PREACHING CHRIST’S ’ALIEN’ RIGHTEOUSNESS CREDITED TO US |

Justification is a two-fold declaration of God that we are both ”Not Guilty” and also ”Perfectly Worthy” on account of Christ’s substitutionary death and meritorious life.

God not only sees you just as He sees Christ, but you are personally united with Christ and His merit imputed through Word & Sacrament. 

Be ”fed with your ears” [Martin Luther] by Law & Gospel Preaching proclaiming Christ’s Person & Work, His ’Alien’ Righteousness, in Forensic Justification.

Rest in the renewing of your mind as Scripture interprets Scripture through Christ in His unfolding story. 

Hear like ancient believers as Christ, the Word, that is both ’Author’ and ’Actor’, explains all that Moses, the Prophets & all the Scriptures say concerning Him.
