What does the Bible say about salvation and righteousness?

Answered in 3 sources

The Bible teaches that salvation comes solely through the person and work of Jesus Christ, who provides the garments of righteousness to His people.

According to Scripture, salvation is granted not through our own works or merits but through the imputed righteousness of Christ. Isaiah 61:10 reveals that God clothes His elect with the garments of salvation and the robe of righteousness, representing the righteousness of Christ that is given to believers. This truth underscores the Reformed understanding that believers receive salvation as a gift, rooted in God's grace alone, as reflected in Ephesians 2:8-9, where we learn that it is by grace we have been saved, not by our works.
