Bible Verses About Righteousness Imputed

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

But the righteousness that is by faith says: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’ (that is, to bring Christ down)

It is because of Him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God: our righteousness, holiness, and redemption.

God made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.

So also, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”

But whatever was gain to me I count as loss for the sake of Christ.

More than that, I count all things as loss compared to the surpassing excellence of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ

and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God on the basis of faith.
