Breastplate of righteousness: Living committed to righteousness

1st Peter 2:24a | ​​He personally carried our sins in his body on the cross so that we can be dead to sin and live for what is right


Titus 2:14 | He gave his life to free us from every kind of sin, to cleanse us, and to make us his very own people, totally committed to doing good deeds.
