What does the Bible say about divine righteousness?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that divine righteousness is essential for salvation, and it is imputed to believers through faith in Christ.

Divine righteousness refers to the holiness and moral perfection of God that is essential for the salvation of sinners. According to the Scriptures, it is not a righteousness that we can achieve on our own but is granted to us through faith in Jesus Christ. Romans 5:19 states, 'For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.' This righteousness is part of the great doctrine of justification, where believers are declared righteous in God's sight not based on their own works, but on Christ's perfect obedience and sacrifice.
Scripture References: Romans 5:19, 2 Corinthians 5:21
