52. In getting to the topic of the Righteousness of God, we see that Jesus is called the Branch of Righteousness, and the branch is called YHWH Righteousness; this is Jesus, not according to His humanity, but according to His divinity, thus it is His divinity that is YHWH our Righteousness, so that the Righteousness of God that saves us is the Nature of God. Jeremiah 33:15,16.
53. The Righteousness we see in the light of the Gospel is God’s Nature, thus God is our Righteousness. (Micah 7:9; 2 Corinthians 4:4; Romans 1:16,17).
The Righteousness of God that is to be seen is His Love to Israel, this is God Himself, for God is Love, it is not Christ’s obedience to the Law. (Micah 6:5; 1 John 4:8).
The Sun of Righteousness is the light that has Righteousness this is Jesus the Truth, not His perfect obedience to the Law, but it is His Nature of Love which heals sin, because His Name is also YHWH that heals. (Micah 4:2; Exodus 15:26).
The Righteousness that redeems is God Himself who dwells in us, not the perfect obedience of Jesus which was personal. (Isaiah 1:27; 1 John 4:4,16).
The Righteousness that works peace in the heart is the Righteousness of God which is imputed to us by Faith in justification giving us peace and thus assurance. (Isaiah 32:17; Romans 4:5; Romans 5:1,2).
God calls His right hand Righteousness, (this is His divinity). Isaiah 41:10.
a. God saves with His right hand which is His
Righteousness. Psalms 17:7. Psalms 60:5.
b. God’s name is His praise because of His Righteous
ness, which fills His right hand, thus His name and praise is the right hand of His Righteousness which is obviously His Divine Nature of Love. Psalms 48:10; Jeremiah 23:5,6).
c. Jesus is prophesied as YHWH on the right hand of YHWH, He is the High Priest that sits on the right hand of God, and as He is made unto us Righteousness, the Righteousness of God’s right hand is Jesus who is YHWH, thus this Righteousness is the divinity of Jesus. (Isaiah 41:10; Psalms 110:1,4,5; 1 Corinthians 1:30; Mark 16:19).
59. Christ the servant of YHWH is called in Righteousness, this is not His flesh, but obviously His divinity which is the real light to the Gentiles. (Isaiah 42:1,5,6; John 8:12).
To have strength and Righteousness in YHWH can never mean that His actions are His Righteousness, this has to mean His divinity which gives meaning and value to all His actions, and from which His actions come, thus this is the Righteousness of God - His Nature. Isaiah 46:24.
YHWH’s Righteousness is His salvation, and since this is what He saves with, it is the Righteousness of God, or God Himself who saves. (Isaiah 46:13; Philippians 3:9; Isaiah 43:11.
62. Following after Righteousness is seeking YHWH, thus YHWH is our Righteousness; this is indeed the Righteousness of God or God Himself. (Isaiah 51:1; Jeremiah 23:5,6).
YHWH’s Righteousness is His salvation which He saves us with, this is the Righteousness of God, it is also the Law in the heart, not the works of the Law or the righteousness of the Law which has to be performed, it is the Spiritual Law, or the principles of God’s divine Nature, thus this is His Love or Divinity. (Isaiah 51:5 - 8; Philippians 3:9; Romans 7:14).
The Righteousness that Israel were to be established in was the one that gives them peace as its effect, this is the Righteousness of God which comes by Justification resulting in the peace of the Spiritual mind, thus it is indeed the Righteousness of God that is different to the Law, it is the Love or Nature of God. (Isaiah 54:13,14; Isaiah 32:17; Romans 4:5; Romans 3:21,22; Romans 5:1,5; Romans 8:6).
Because the servants of YHWH has Righteousness from Him, their servant hood to God is their servant hood to Righteousness, thus this Righteousness is the Righteousness of God or God Himself. (Isaiah 54:17; Romans 6:18,22).
God’s Righteousness is the salvation He gives to us. This is why the Gospel gives salvation, because the Righteousness of God (God Himself) is in it, thus the Righteousness we receive as salvation is the Righteousness of God. (Isaiah 56:1; Romans 1:16,17).
67. The Righteousness of Jesus the redeemer is the Righteousness of God, the divine nature, and not His humanity, nor His perfect obedience to the Law of God, it is the Righteousness of God, God Himself, which, when within the man, saves him from sin. (Isaiah 59:16,17; 1 Corinthians 1:30; 2 Corinthians 6:16; 1 Corinthians 15:34).
The robe of Righteousness that covers us is not the Law, nor Christ’s perfect obedience to the Law, nor our Faith - inspired obedience. It is a Righteousness which causes us to obey the Law; this is the Righteousness of God which covers our hearts by justification and is our salvation; it is Christ (God ) Himself. (Isaiah 61:10; Romans 3:22,28,30,31; 1 Corinthians 1:30; Philippians 3:9).
We are made the Righteousness of God when Christ who is our Righteousness dwells in us by Faith; because when we are in Him, He (Christ) is in us. This is not the Law proper, or our faith - inspired works, or Christ’s perfect obedience to the Law of God, this Righteousness is the Love or Divinity of Jesus in us (2 Corinthians 5:21; 1 Corinthians 1:30; 1 John 4:13,15,16; 1 John 5:20).
70. When we receive Faith we receive the Righteousness of God who is Jesus Christ, and this is through divine imputation. This is obviously not works-righteousness from Christ, but the Righteousness of God which is apart from the Law, it is the divine Nature which we partake of. (1 Peter 1:1; Romans 4:3,5,9; 2 Peter 1:4).
