How does Christ establish righteousness for His people?

Answered in 1 source

Christ establishes righteousness for His people by fulfilling the law and bearing their sins in His sacrifice.

Christ establishes righteousness on behalf of His people through His perfect obedience to the law and His sacrificial death. By living a sinless life, He fulfilled all requirements of righteousness that we could never meet. Furthermore, in Isaiah 3:11, we see the consequences of sin, yet we find hope in Christ who bore those consequences in our place, thus making us righteous before God. This righteousness is imputed to believers, meaning they are credited with Christ’s perfection, allowing them to stand before God without fear of condemnation.
