RE: The Righteous Will Live By Faith
we are the righteousness of God in christ Jesus. Righteousness is our nature, it is a gift that we received from God. no one can earn the righteousness of God by his or her good work. our faith is a powerful tool that enhances our language against situations and challenges.
I don't agree @souljay that 'Righteousness is our nature.' It is our nature to sin because of Adam and Eve original sin. Righteousness is the nature of the Lord and only through Him can we be found righteous. Thank you for commenting.
It was our nature to sin but now we are in christ we have the nature of God. So we are righteous in nature. Only unbelievers are still having the sinful nature. We are God's children now. We are no longer condemned because of Adam's sin(Romans 5:17)
