An Exposition of Psalm 1 — Part Two

 (ID: 3243)

Psalm 1 tells us that the righteous will prosper, and the wicked will perish. So why do wicked people often appear to be prospering? Alistair Begg explains that while evildoers succeed in this life, they are unprepared to face their death. God has fixed a day of judgment for the unrighteousness of man, and only through faith in the righteousness of Christ will we receive God’s mercy on that day.
