The Lord Our Righteousness

Obadiah Grew

How can a sinner be accepted as righteous by a holy God? This question lies at the heart of the Protestant Reformation and remains a vital part of Christianity to this day. In The Lord Our Righteousness, Obadiah Grew expounds the classic Protestant doctrine of justification. And as he shows, the glorious basis for our justification is the righteousness of Christ credited to all true believers. With theological rigor and pastoral comfort, Grew helps us understand from God’s Word how our justification comes by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone.

OBADIAH GREW (1607-1689) was a Puritan minister in Coventry, England. By 1682, he had become blind and was imprisoned for preaching. While in jail, he dictated sermons that were distributed and read in gatherings.
