Christ that's the gospel you and I can never stand in the presence of a holy God unless we are clothe from on high with a righteousness that is not our own thanks for listening to ultimately with RC Sproul this is a podcast from liger Ministries for more information about liger and to discover thousands of free resources to help you grow in your Christian faith visit ligonier.org [Music] [Music]
