Measure for measure, my righteousness vs your righteousness...a wash. Tie.
You are no more righteous than I am. Same back at me. Neither of us would win an award.
WHOLE LOT of righteous indignation been echoing back and forth across this indignant Nation
lately.
Comes from a cosmos flailing around on a sand foundation.
So, who is Righteous?
God.
I can hear the ungodly now:
"I AM more righteous than you, Doug, and certainly more righteous than the imaginary God you have been fooled into believing!"
You may be more Righteous than I am.
But you are not righteous compared to God.
Who isn't imaginary. Or the confused remnant of some poor earlier theology.
Here's the thing-because I am a Christian, Christ's Righteousness has been imputed to me.
I am not righteous. But He is. And by His Righteousness I am righteous before God.
Measure yourself against His Righteousness. Do it.
Sand.

Neither your righteousness nor mine will ever gain us entrance to Heaven.
But if Christ accepts you? Brings you into His family?
Golden.
The righteousness of Christ is purer then any graven love of a Pagan. He loved to the death.
