How do we know Christ's righteousness is our own?

Answered in 1 source

Believers are covered in the righteousness of Christ, which is credited to them through faith.

The imputed righteousness of Christ is fundamental to the Christian faith. According to Romans 4:6-8, God imputes righteousness without works, meaning that believers are deemed righteous not based on their own merits but on Christ's perfect obedience and sacrifice. This righteousness serves as a wedding garment for the believer, as illustrated in Matthew 22:11-12, which signifies acceptance into God's kingdom. Therefore, through faith in Jesus, we are completely clothed in His righteousness and stand justified before God.
