How does God judge according to righteousness?

Answered in 1 source

God judges according to righteousness by evaluating one's standing in Christ or their works, separating the redeemed from the unredeemed.

God's judgment is executed with absolute righteousness, as stated in Acts 17:31. Those who are in Christ are judged not on their works but on their faith in Him, receiving eternal life due to Christ's righteousness imputed to them. In contrast, those not found in Him are judged by their works, revealing their sinfulness and inability to meet God's perfect standard. This dichotomy emphasizes that God's judgment is based upon the righteousness of Christ as the only standard for acceptance into His eternal kingdom.
