Our Righteousness • Conforming to God’s actionsand attributes • Not something we achieve, but something we receive • It becomes what we doandwhat we are • Doing, and being, right by God
I don’t understand myself, for I want to do what is right, but I don’t do it. Instead, I do what I hate.I want to do what is right, but I can’t. I want to do what is good, but I don’t. I don’t want to do what is wrong, but I do it anyway. Romans 7:15, 18 – 19, 24 – 25 (NLT)
I know that nothing good lives in me… What a wretched man I am. Who will rescue me from this body of death? Thanks be to God—through Jesus Christ our Lord! Romans 7:15, 18 – 19, 24 – 25 (NLT)
But now God has shown us a way to be made right with Him. We are made right with God by placing our faith in Jesus Christ. And this is true for everyone who believes, no matter who we are. For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard.
Yet God, with undeserved kindness, declares that we are righteous. He did this through Christ Jesus when He freed us from the penalty for our sins. For God presented Jesus as the sacrifice for sin. People are made right with God when they believe that Jesus sacrificed his life, shedding his blood. Romans 3:21 – 25 (NLT)
