Jer 23:6 In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.

*The entire Old Testament is understood only through the knowledge of the New Testament. Many begin reading the Bible on the first page, like you would most any book. The beginning of the Jewish Bible begins in Genesis. The Beginning of the Christian Bible begins with the Gospel of John. All of the Bible is about the same God and about the Messiah. All points to Jesus Christ.

So many trying by their good deeds to obtain a class of righteousness of our own. The Bible declares none righteousness, no not one. If we could somehow obtain righteousness by our behavior, there would have been no need for Jesus to die on the cross. But it was and is impossible to obtain righteousness by our own behavior. The righteousness accepted by God comes from faith. Even Abraham obtained righteousness by faith. It is God Who imputes Righteousness to us. It is His Righteousness. Having no righteousness of our own. But by faith, God imputes to us His Own Righteousness. He is our Lord our Righteousness.

Abraham believed God and it was accounted as Righteousness

Gen 15:6 And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness.

Rom 1:17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

Righteousness comes from faith in Jesus

Rom 3:22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
Rom 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

Righteousness without works

Rom 4:6 Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,
Rom 4:7 Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.

If we could be Righteous by following the law, Jesus didn’t have to die.

Gal 2:21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.

Having Zero Righteousness of our own.

Php 3:9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

Tit 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;

In Christ by Faith, we become the Righteousness of God

2Co 5:21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

He is the Lord God our Righteousness.
