How do we know God's righteousness is essential for salvation?

Answered in 2 sources

God's righteousness is essential for salvation as it reveals our inability to meet His standards and points us to Christ who fulfills the law.

God's righteousness is crucial because it reflects His holy nature and the requirement of perfect righteousness. According to Romans 10:3-4, many are ignorant of God's righteousness and thus try to establish their own, which is insufficient for salvation. Understanding God's righteousness reveals our sinful state and our need for a Savior. The law serves to expose our inability to keep it, driving us to Christ, who fulfills the law for us and is the end of the law for righteousness to all who believe. Hence, acknowledging God's righteousness leads to true salvation.
