Why is trusting in God's righteousness important for Christians?

Answered in 2 sources

Trusting in God's righteousness is important for Christians as it assures that our salvation is based on His unchanging character, not our own efforts.

Christ's cry during His suffering, as noted in Psalm 31, emphasizes reliance on God’s righteousness for deliverance. When He says, 'Deliver me in Thy righteousness,' He exemplifies the necessity of trusting in God’s perfect character, which does not waver like human efforts. This truth is affirmed in Romans 3:26, where God is described as both just and the justifier of those who have faith in Christ. For Christians, recognizing that salvation hinges on God’s righteousness provides immense assurance and fosters a deeper faith in the sufficiency of His grace.
