What does it mean to receive a righteous man's reward?

In Matthew 10:41, Jesus states that whoever receives a righteous man in his name will receive a righteous man's reward. This righteous man's reward is not reserved for individuals who appear outwardly righteous but is found in every believer because they are one with Christ. This teaching highlights that all believers, regardless of their earthly status, partake equally in the grace of salvation and the righteousness of Christ. Therefore, the reward for those who show hospitality to the brethren reflects the universal grace afforded to all Christians.
