How do we know righteousness is found in Christ?

Answered in 2 sources

Righteousness is found in Christ as He is the only source of true holiness, which is imputed to those who believe in Him.

The righteousness that pleases God cannot be achieved through our own efforts, as Romans 3:10 states, 'There is none righteous, no not one.' Instead, righteousness is obtained through faith in Jesus Christ. Romans 10:4 affirms that Christ is the end of the law for righteousness for all who believe, which means that righteousness is imputed to us—not earned—when we place our faith in Him. This divine exchange ensures that believers are clothed in Christ's righteousness, allowing them to stand justified before God. Understanding this fundamental truth is paramount for Christians, as it encapsulates the essence of the Gospel.
