| The only Righteousness we can manifest is of the Holy Spirit. We receive the Holy Spirit by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. It is the Righteousness of Faith which makes us acceptable to God.
In the Righteousness of Faith we are perfected. How so?
Christ Jesus has imputed His Righteousness to us through His Faith. We cannot detract from nor Add to the Righteousness of Christ.
Our Focus should Not be on developing our own Righteousness. Rather it should be on testifying to the Righteousness of Christ Jesus.
