We are the Righteousness of God
Can you even imagine it? We, you and me, saved by grace and now considered to be the righteousness of God.
Funny, it almost feels sinful to think that way, but God said it and it is true. Because of Christ's perfect sacrifice for us, we are now God's righteousness.
A lot of Christians want to tell us that we are poor sinners saved by Grace. True, we are saved by Grace, but we are no longer considered poor sinners. Stop letting religion tell you that you aren't good enough. In your own strength, no, you aren't good enough. But through Christ, we were given the gift of salvation.
Through His grace, we are now the righteousness of God. When God looks at us, He sees Jesus in us. Do you not know that you are the temple of the Holy Spirit?
Stop condemning yourself. There is now therefore, no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Stop trying to do things to earn God's love and grace. We are now His righteousness because of Christ. No matter what we do, or don't do, God has provided us with salvation, forgiveness of sins, past, present and future, and now sees us as perfect sons and daughters because of Christ.
Let's start enjoying the freedom we have in Christ, and start living through love for God and love for others. Don't let someone tell you that you are any less than the righteousness of God.
