How do we know that believing leads to righteousness?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible confirms that believing in God results in righteousness, as demonstrated in Genesis 15:6 where Abraham's faith was credited as righteousness.

The doctrine of justification by faith is rooted in Scripture, which reveals that faith, not works, is the means by which we are declared righteous before God. Genesis 15:6 details how Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness. This principle continues into the New Testament as Paul references it in Romans 10, clearly stating that ‘whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.' Righteousness comes through faith in God's promises and the work of Christ, ensuring that those who trust Him are secure in their standing before Him, unashamed and uncondemned.
