..And so it’s the same with righteousness – we learn His will ..His ways. Righteousness means to be accepted – it’s acceptable before God. It’s accepting His teachings ..His Word. It is allowing the Word to change us and mold us more and more into His image. It’s all about learning God’s will .. obeying that will. This is the idea of righteousness. If that is working in your heart your life – and you desire all of that which I have just said – then you will be persecuted because of that. ‘ Be Sure Your Persecution Is For Righteousness Sake. ‘
God Will Do It Through Us
For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 5:20
