You can have everlasting righteousness by placing your faith in Jesus Christ, who is our righteousness before God.
To attain everlasting righteousness, one must put faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, as Scripture defines Him as our righteousness (Jeremiah 23:6). Through faith, believers are united with Christ, who fulfilled the law and offers His righteous standing to all who trust in Him. Romans 3:22 states that the righteousness of God comes through faith in Jesus for all who believe. This act of faith involves not only belief in Christ but also surrendering one's life to His lordship, recognizing that all good works stem from this relationship. As you grow in understanding and rest in God's word, you will continually experience the peace and assurance that comes from being clothed in the righteousness of Christ, which secures eternal life and communion with God.
