Onfire Agape Radio show 's guest preacher, Pastor Francis Karuga, teaches that righteousness is a gift of God. He shows in the scriptures that You did nothing to become right when you believe in God. It is a gift for you that Jesus purchased with his own blood, therefore righteousness before God cannot be earned. Pastor Karuga warns that many believers are defeated today because they are trying to earn their own righteousness by their law - keeping and good works.
