How do we know gospel righteousness is true?

Answered in 1 source

Gospel righteousness is affirmed by Scripture and the historical reality of Jesus Christ's life, death, and resurrection.

The truth of gospel righteousness is confirmed through the prophetic witness of the Old Testament as seen in Isaiah and its fulfillment in the New Testament with Jesus Christ. Isaiah 45:8 declares God’s active role in pouring down righteousness, which culminates in the revelation of Christ as the embodiment of that righteousness. Furthermore, the unity of God's attributes—His justice, mercy, and righteousness—finds its ultimate expression in Christ, who is both just and the justifier of those who believe (Romans 3:26). Historical events such as the life and resurrection of Christ substantiate the promise of righteousness offered to sinners.
