"The Righteousness of God"


The Righteousness of God:
 
Anyone who confesses with his mouth Jesus as Lord, and believes in his heart that God raised him from the dead, shall be saved. For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.  Romans 10:9,10.
 
All who have faith in the Lord Jesus Christ are the righteousness of God by faith. Romans 3:21,22.
 
Who saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was centered unto him for righteousness. Now it was not written for his sake alone, that righteousness was imputed to him; But for us also to whom it (righteousness) shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justifications. Romans 4:3, 23-25 also 2 Cor. 5:21; Gal 2:16; 3: 6-9; Phil. 3:9.
 
If Christ be in you; you are a child of God the righteousness of God by faith.
 
To those who deny themselves of the grace of God accounting themselves greater than the word  of God by not accepting the righteousness of God by faith.
 
It is far greater than Esau's giving up his natural birth right than giving up your spiritual birth right.  To be born again you have been called, justified and glorified by God the only way to eternal life. If you were not His righteousness by faith He could not accept you for God can not deny Himself for He is pure, righteous, and Holy. Romans 8:30; Hebrews 12:16.
 
Fellow Saints rejoice in the righteousness of God by faith in our Lord Christ Jesus.
