Topic: Righteousness and Obedience

Jesus is righteous therefore when you are “in” Jesus you are righteous. Being “in” Jesus is having faith and trusting Jesus.

Our obedience is never well enough as we are imperfect. If we were/are perfect then we were/are not iligible for Grace as we wouldn’t need it. You come to God thru Jesus “just as you are” imperfect.  Our obedience is good enough only BECAUSE we are IN JESUS.  It is Jesus’ obedience not our obedience that is considered good enough.  Being “in” Jesus is  having faith and trusting Jesus.  

God the Father looks at and considers Jesus' righteousness and obedience not ours. We are accepted as acceptable to God the Father through our Faith and Trust “IN JESUS”.

======================================

Commandments AFTER Grace:

  • Put God the Father first in ALL things.
  • Love your Neighbor as you love yourself.

If you do these two things, the rest just come about.
