WORDs of Saving Grace - thy righteousness
Psalms 35:28 And my tongue shall speak of thy righteousness and of thy praise all the day long.
Thank God that salvation is not based upon our right deeds.
Titus 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;
Even at our absolute best we miss God's bullseye.
Psalms 39:5
... verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah.
Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
As a matter of fact in comparison to the righteousness of God - ALL our righteousness is worth throwing in the trash.
Isaiah 64:6 ... all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags;
The righteousness of God is given by faith in Christ. It is added to our account while sin was added to the account of the soul of Jesus. (2 Corinthians 5:21)
Sound to good to be true!?
That is why its called good news - "Gospel" and that is why i will always speak of His righteousness and not my own.
