START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION
(KJV) Romans 3:21
But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
A RIGHTEOUSNESS FROM GOD / ROMANS 3:21
This phrase refers to God’s redemptive (spiritually rescuing, saving, restoring) activity as it relates to human sin. Since we could never deserve His mercy or favor by our own efforts, through His grace God has provided a way for us to be restored to a right relationship with Himself. It is a way that satisfied His perfect justice (Romand 3:26) – which required a penalty and punishment for our sin – and yet provides forgiveness, freedom from guilt and victory over the power of evil. God’s plan of spiritual salvation saves people from the final consequences of sin and provides them with the gift of eternal life through faith in His Son, Jesus Christ (Romans 6:23). Receiving this gift is what makes a person righteous (right with God and empowered to live right by His standard). Spiritual salvation and righteousness are so directly related that throughout the Old Testament, God’s work of salvation and His display of righteousness are basically the same thing (Psalms 32:2; 98:1-2; Isaiah 46:13; 51:5-8; 56:1-2; 62:1). God’s righteousness, as revealed through the New Testament message of Jesus Christ, is still available to all who accept the forgiveness and new life made possible through Jesus’ personal sacrifice, which paid the full penalty for our sin against God. The power of this message to provide spiritual salvation (Romans 1:16) and to bring people into a right relationship with God is constantly fresh and relevant.
