Righteousness

 

It is hard for us to understand that we can be righteous before God.  After all we are sinners and we will sin again and again.  It is in our nature to sin.  So how can we overcome sin and be  righteous?

7Dear children, do not let anyone lead you astray. He who does what is right is righteous, just as He is righteous. 8He who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil's work. 9No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God's seed remains in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God. 10This is how we know who the children of God are and who the children of the devil are: Anyone who does not do what is right is not a child of God; nor is anyone who does not love his brother.
1 John 3:7-10

We must also know that without God we are not able to be righteous.  In this day and age it is very common to hear others say that they beleive that they are basically good people and will end up in heaven when they die.  Do not be so easily deceived -without God we are destined for hell when we die.  God has given us a very sobering warning concerning this road to destruction.

There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death.  (Proverbs 14:12)

Therefore, to one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, to him it is sin. 
James 4:17
