BELIEVING IN CHRIST LEADS TO RIGHTEOUSNESS.
*Having faith in Jesus Christ or believing that Jesus Christ is the only way to righteousness and salvation, is what makes the difference between born-again Christians and non-believers.
*Believers n the gospel of Jesus Christ know that faith in the complete work of salvation by Christ on the Cross is the believer’s guarantee for righteousness, and not obedience to the law.
*Christians are glad that anyone in Christ is guaranteed righteousness of faith through Christ. Philippines 3:9 says, “And be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith”.
*The gospel of Jesus Christ preaches the righteousness of faith through Christ Jesus, and for that, the gospel in John 3:18 says that: “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God”.
*According to the gospel, anyone who believes that Jesus Christ the Son of God, who knew no sin, but became sin for his sake, and also bore all the shame of flogging and crucifixion for sins not committed; is made righteous through faith in Christ.
*To corroborate the above statement, 2Corinthians 5:21 says:”For He (God) made Him (Jesus) who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him (Jesus).
*Believe in Jesus Christ and be saved. It sounds simple but it is true; simply because God loves you through Christ !
