Dwelling in the Righteousness of Christ

Remember, it’s never about our own righteousness but about the righteousness of Christ credited to us. Our human effort, no matter how sincere, can never measure up to God’s perfect standard. In His sight, our self-made righteousness is nothing more than filthy rags. That is why we cannot depend on ourselves—we must rely completely on His perfect, finished work.

2 Corinthians 5:21 (CEB) – “God made the one who didn’t know sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.”
