What does the Bible say about righteousness before God?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that righteousness before God is attained through faith in Jesus Christ alone, not by works.

The Bible clearly states that no one can be justified by the deeds of the law (Romans 3:20). Instead, righteousness comes through faith in Jesus Christ, where His perfect righteousness is imputed to those who believe. This imputation is not based on our actions or worthiness but solely on Christ's obedience and sacrifice. The righteousness of God works out the faith relationship where believers are declared righteous before God, allowing them to stand blameless in His sight.
