the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction:

For if, because of one man's trespass, death reigned through that one man, much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and the free gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man Jesus Christ.

But if Christ is in you, although the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.

And because of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, righteousness and sanctification and redemption,

I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness were through the law, then Christ died for no purpose.

filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which comes through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God that depends on faith—

Greeting

Simeon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have obtained a faith of equal standing with ours by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ:
