How do we know that righteousness is necessary for salvation?

Answered in 1 source

Righteousness is essential for salvation as Scripture states that without it, one faces eternal consequences.

The necessity of righteousness for salvation is rooted in biblical teaching, emphasizing that without it, one cannot stand before a holy God. The dire consequences of living in unrighteousness are clearly described in Romans 2:8-9, which states that indignation and wrath await those who pursue unrighteousness. This underscores the reality that God's perfect holiness requires absolute purity, and sin cannot coexist with Him. Thus, righteousness is not optional but is critically necessary for anyone desiring eternal life with God.
