Topic: Righteousness Through Christ [26/04/2017]
And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: Philippians 3:9. Read: Isa 64:5-7
Please note, when you say it's not possible, that particular thing remains impossible to you. Because all things are possible to them that believe in the God of possibilities. Many do not believe any can be perfect and righteous as Jesus said in Matt 5:48 because they don't understand how it works. The righteousness of a man the Bible says is like a filthy rag. This is not the righteousness we are talking about. No. Not the righteousness that comes from the law.
The righteousness and perfection Jesus talked about is the one through Faith in Him. man is too filthy for God to behold, but when you surrender your life to Jesus Christ, His righteousness envelops you before God to behold. God can no longer see you as you are, but sees you through Jesus’s righteousness. You are righteous through faith in Christ Jesus, not because of your work, no. You are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus only when you have faith on the finished work of Jesus on the cross of Calvary.
