(Audio) Breastplate of Righteousness | Mark Bubeck

About this sermon

Website: http://www.brministry.org | App: http://get.theapp.co/725c The sermon centers on the breastplate of righteousness as a vital component of the Christian's spiritual armor, emphasizing that true protection in spiritual warfare comes not from self-effort but from the imputed, positional righteousness of Christ, which must be actively appropriated through faith. It highlights the danger of passive reliance on God's provision without personal engagement, illustrating how believers often fail to fight the battle actively, expecting God to act without their participation. The breastplate symbolizes the protection of the soul's most vital spiritual organs—heart, mind, and will—by aligning the believer with God's holiness, which stands in stark contrast to Satan's darkness. The sermon unfolds three dimensions of righteousness: positional (already ours in Christ), experiential (to be daily claimed through prayer, Scripture, and the Holy Spirit), and future (fully realized at Christ's return). Ultimately, putting on this breastplate is not a passive state but a deliberate, daily act of repudiating self-righteousness and embracing God's righteousness as the foundation for spiritual victory and holy living. #markbubeck #breastplateofrighteousness #armorofgod
