After teaching on Exodus 22:26-27 and its parallel in Deuteronomy 24:10-13, I was led to talk about the common understanding in Christianity that all of our good deeds (acts of righteousness) are filthy rags. Thankfully, as I perused Christian teachers today, many have left this understanding for a more contextual view of Isaiah 64:6. However, there are many that still hold to the idea (popularized by Martin Luther). This lesson looks at several Scriptures showing that when we do good works from a genuine heart Yahweh considers us as righteous before Him.
