How do we know our righteousness is through faith?

Answered in 1 source

We know our righteousness is through faith because the Scriptures declare that faith is the means by which we are justified before God (Romans 4:5).

Our righteousness before God is established through faith as articulated in Romans 4:5, which states that to the one who does not work but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, their faith is counted as righteousness. This underscores the core of sovereign grace theology: our righteousness is not based on our works but on Christ's faithfulness. The believer's assurance flows from the understanding that the righteousness of Christ is imputed to us, granting us right standing with God. Thus, the believer can confidently wait for the hope of righteousness promised in Scripture, knowing it is a work of God rather than a product of their merit.
