Rest assured: Before God, the righteousness of Christ is all we need; before God, the righteousness of Christ is all we have.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I further believe that all must be saved through the merits of Christ.
To make your people understand what righteousness is, this must be the basis of all your teaching.
For even these are no less bestowed on him of pure grace, than are righteousness and salvation themselves.
Since we have placed justification in the revelation of Jesus Christ formed and brought forth in the heart, there working his works of righteousness and bringing forth the fruits of the Spirit.
Righteousness is easy in retrospect.
Each heartfelt prayer, each Church meeting attended, each worthy friend, each righteous decision, each act of service perfomed all precede that goal of eternal life.
It's easy to look at the things of this world to solve our challenges and obstacles in life, but when we submit our lives to Christ, His grace, mercy, peace and love will bring true fulfillment to our lives.
To become Christ-like is the only thing in the whole world worth caring for, the thing before which every ambition of man is folly and all lower achievement vain.
Where much is given, much is required. Our Heavenly Father asks His daughters to walk in virtue, to live in righteousness so that we can fulfill our life's mission and His purposes. He wants us to be successful, and He will help us as we seek His help.
To lovers of the truth, nothing can be put before God and hope in Him.
