Righteousness


Righteousness

Galatians 3:24  

So the law was put in charge to lead us to Christ that we might be justified by faith.

Galatians 5:4  

You who are trying to be justified by law have been alienated from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.

Galatians 5:5  

But by faith we eagerly await through the Spirit the righteousness for which we hope.

Ephesians 4:24  

And to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.

Ephesians 5:9  

(For the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth)

Ephesians 6:14  

Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,

Philippians 1:11  

Filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ—to the glory and praise of God.

Philippians 3:6  

As for zeal, persecuting the church; as for legalistic righteousness, faultless.

Philippians 3:9  

and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God and is by faith.

Get Your Eye off Yourself

 “Do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others.”  Philippians 2:4, NASB

What’s the cure for selfishness?

Get yourself out of your eye by getting your eye off yourself. Quit staring at that little self and focus on your great Savior . . .

Focus on the encouragement in Christ, the consolation of Christ, the love of Christ, the fellowship of the Spirit, the affection and compassion of heaven….- Max Lucado
