01_24 Righteousness

The root of the first sin was that human beings went away from God’s path, and followed a path they chose for themselves. In this unit, we discuss the reasons, the goals, and the results of following God’s path, with God. We will aim to learn God’s righteousness; desire this; learn to walk in this path, and make this a permanent part of our lives.
