Rest assured: Before God, the righteousness of Christ is all we need; before God, the righteousness of Christ is all we have.
Faith is the means by which the righteousness of Christ is given to us.
One thing, and only one thing, is necessary for Christian life, righteousness, and freedom. That one thing is the most holy Word of God, the gospel of Christ.
Believing that you are the righteousness of God through Christ Jesus and simply receiving the gift of no condemnation gives you the power to go and sin no more.
We shall never be clothed with the righteousness of Christ except we first know assuredly that we have no righteousness of our own.
We have to find in Christ, not a mask that conceals our face, but an entire wardrobe of clothing, which is His righteousness.
Remember this-all the sighing, mourning, sobbing, and complaining in the world, does not so undeniably evidence a man to be humble, as his overlooking his own righteousness, and living really and purely upon the righteousness of Christ.
Nothing can damn a man but his own righteousness; nothing can save him but the righteousness of Christ.
