What does the Bible say about righteousness and faith?

Answered in 1 source

Righteousness is by faith apart from works, as demonstrated in Romans 4.

The Bible explicitly teaches that righteousness is obtained not through the law or works, but by faith. In Romans 4, we see Abraham's faith counted as righteousness before any works or ceremonies, like circumcision, were established. This shows that righteousness is a gift from God, based on trust in Him, rather than human effort. This aligns with the historic Reformed understanding that justification comes through faith alone, grounded in God's grace.
