HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS: OUR KEY TO HEAVEN!


HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS:  OUR KEY TO HEAVEN!

IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR US TO BE PERFECT!

Deuteronomy 6:24-25 - And the LORD commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear the LORD our God, for our good always, that He might preserve us alive, as it is at this day.  And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do all these commandments before the LORD our God, as He has commanded us.

Isaiah 64:6But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousness is as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.

GOD HAS PROVIDED RIGHTEOUSNESS FOR THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN HIM!

Jeremiah 23:5-6 - Behold, the days come, says the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth.  In His days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely:  and this is His name whereby He shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.

Jeremiah 51:10 - The LORD has brought forth our righteousness:  come, and let us declare in Zion the work of the LORD our God.

Matthew 6:33But seek first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness....

Romans 1:16-17 - For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ:  for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one who believes; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek (Gentile)For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith:  as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

Romans 3:20-23Therefore by the deeds of the Law there shall no flesh be justified (declared righteous) in His sight:  for by the Law is the knowledge of sin.  But now the righteousness of God without (apart from) the Law is manifested, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets; even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe:  for there is no difference:  for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.

Romans 4:2-5 - For if Abraham were justified (declared righteous) by works, he has whereof to glory; but not before God.  For what do the Scriptures say?  Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousnessNow to him who works is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.  But to him who does not work (does not count on his own works), but believes on Him Who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

Romans 5:17-18 - For if by one man's (Adam's) offence death reigned by one; much more those who receive an abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by One, Jesus Christ.  Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of One the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.

Romans 10:1-4Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.  For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.  For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.  For Christ is the end of the Law for righteousness to every one who believes.

2 Corinthians 5:21 - For He (the Father) has made Him (Jesus) to be sin for us, Who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him.

Galatians 2:21 - I do not frustrate the grace of God:  for if righteousness come by the Law, then Christ is dead in vain.

Galatians 3:21-22 - For if there had been a Law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the Law.  But the Scripture has concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

Philippians 3:9 And be found in Him (Jesus), not having my own righteousness, which is of the Law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith.

Hebrews 11:7 - By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.


OUR GOOD WORKS CANNOT SAVE US!
THE FINISHED WORK OF CHRIST CAN!
TRUST IN JESUS CHRIST WHILE YOU STILL CAN!
