What does the Bible say about Christ's righteousness?
Answered in 12 sources
The Bible describes Christ as 'The Lord our Righteousness' (Jeremiah 23:6), emphasizing the connection between Christ and the righteousness He provides.
Jeremiah 23:6 presents a profound view of Jesus as 'The Lord our Righteousness,' showing that His righteousness is intrinsically tied to His person. It cautions believers against viewing righteousness merely as a separate garment from Christ. Instead, we should recognize that Christ Himself embodies righteousness, and it is through Him that we are clothed in this righteousness. Understanding Him as our righteousness expands our view of salvation and the security it offers.
