righteousness
Proverbs 21:21
Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness will find life, righteousness, and honor.
Which Path Will You Choose?
“Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful; but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and in His law he meditates day and night” (Psalm 1:1-2).
Galatians 3:11
Now it is evident that no one is justified before God by the law, for “The righteous shall live by faith."
Jeremiah 17:8
He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit.
Colossians 3:17
And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
Psalm 112:4
Light dawns in the darkness for the upright; he is gracious, merciful, and righteous.
Are You Becoming More Like Christ?
Growing in grace means to increase in Christlikeness through the unmerited power of God’s Spirit. Are you relying on the Holy Spirit to make you more like Jesus — in your home, your relationships, your job?
Marks of the Righteous
When the prophet Isaiah foretold the coming of Christ and his kingdom, he outlined what Christ’s true ministers would be like. In doing so, he defined our ministry in these last days when he said, “I want you to know the marks of the true people of God, those who will be ministering just before the Prince of Peace comes to reign.”
Proverbs 11:30
The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and whoever captures souls is wise.
