How do we know the righteousness of Christ is imputed to us?

Answered in 1 source

We know the righteousness of Christ is imputed to us through faith in Him as our Surety and Substitute, enabling us to stand without fault before God.

The imputed righteousness of Christ is a foundational doctrine in Reformed theology, emphasizing that through faith in Christ, believers receive His righteousness as a gift. In Revelation 14, it's noted that those identified as the 144,000—the true people of God—are without fault before the throne of God because they are clothed in the righteousness of Christ. This means that they do not rely on their works but on the finished work of Christ, who justifies the ungodly by faith. The assurance of this imputed righteousness provides peace and the confidence that believers are accepted by God.
