Filthy Rags

by Mike Ratlifff

6 For all of us have become like one who is unclean,
And all our righteous deeds are like a filthy garment;
And all of us wither like a leaf,
And our iniquities, like the wind, carry us away. Isaiah 64:6 (LSB)

We have looked deeply at the Biblical definition of our Salvation over the last several posts. In this post we will continue to do that. One of the attacks on the Gospel in our time comes from several sources, but with the same focus. That focus is to change what our salvation actually is and what it accomplishes and why it is necessary. In many of my posts over the years that this ministry has been online I have bought up the number one false form of salvation that our enemy ensnares so many people into. It is some form of works-righteousness. When I first began this ministry I did a series of posts on Ephesians 2:8-10.
