What does it mean to come to God in the robe of righteousness?

Answered in 1 source

Coming in the robe of righteousness means approaching God clothed in Christ's merit, not our own.

The concept of coming before God in the robe of righteousness is significant in understanding our acceptance before God. In Jacob's story, Rebecca dressed Jacob in Esau’s garments to deceive Isaac, yet in the believer's life, it symbolizes being clothed in the righteousness of Christ. This illustrates that we can only be accepted by God when we are covered by Christ's merit, as our own works are insufficient for righteousness. This deepens our understanding of grace, emphasizing that salvation and acceptance are purely by faith through Christ.
