Episode 5 — Put on the Breastplate of Righteousness
Brian Hedges emphasizes that the breastplate signifies practical, Spirit-empowered holiness—not self-righteousness but pursuing godly living rooted in the imputed righteousness of Christ. He explains that while justification (positional righteousness) forms the foundation, the breastplate represents a call to active obedience and sanctification (practical righteousness), protecting our inner being in spiritual warfare. He also gives five things we need to do to put on the breastplate of righteousness. Outline:
(4:44) 1. What Is It?
