What does it mean that Christ will bring in everlasting righteousness?

Answered in 1 source

Christ brings in everlasting righteousness by fulfilling the law and being the perfect mediator for our justification.

The phrase 'bring in everlasting righteousness' signifies the profound truth that through Christ, believers receive not just temporary but eternal righteousness. This righteousness is achieved through His obedience to the law and His sacrificial death, which offers atonement for sin. As is articulated in Romans, Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes, meaning that He satisfies all the demands of justice and provides His righteousness to those who trust in Him. Consequently, believers are seen as righteous in God’s sight, not because of their works, but solely because of Christ's perfect obedience and sacrifice.
