How do we know the righteousness of God is found in Christ?

Answered in 2 sources

The righteousness of God is manifested through the obedience of Christ, particularly in His death, which fulfilled the requirements of the law.

The righteousness that God requires of us is rooted in the obedience of Christ, as seen in passages like Romans 8:3-4, where it states that God condemned sin in the flesh of His Son so that the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us. Furthermore, 2 Corinthians 5:21 asserts that God made Christ to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. This underscores that Christ's sacrificial obedience alone is accepted as our righteousness before God.
