The only Righteousness that please God is the Righteousness of His Son. What a beautiful glorious righteousness. God revealed His Glory to Moses which to me is the heart of the Law of Moses. God revealed that His glory is His heart: He is Gracious Compassionate Longsuffering Abounding in Lovingkindness Abounding in Faithfulness Forgiving (Merciful) Just This is the Righteousness of God. Only Jesus perfectly reflected the heart of God. Only Jesus was Perfect. "He that has seen Him has seen the Father." We are to clothe ourself with Christ...and abide in Him. He will then abide in us and bring His perfect rightousness with Him. God is interested in restoring us back into the image of God, which means we were created to reflect His heart. Coming to Him and receiving Christ, immediately and in a moment God imputes Christ's righteousness to us. Then day by day He imparts His righteousness to us as He abides in us. THus any righteousness we have is from Him and all glory is His. "For by beholding Him we are transformed into likeness from one degree of glory into another by the Spirit of the Lord." The glory of God revealed to Moses on Sinai was the Righteousness of Christ. That is why God had Him go up the Mount and radiate Light and Majestic glory before Moses and Elijah. Both men saw the glory of God and both were hidden in a Rock. That tells me that was Jesus revealing His glory to bothe Moses and Elijah in the OT. And He is revealing today to all who come to Him. He is "THE LORD our RIGHTEOUSNESS" God our Father now desires us to reflect His glory. "He predestined us to be conformed into the image of His Son." May GOd help us all to put on HIS: graciousness compassion patience Lovingkindness Faithfulness Mercy leading to forgiveness Justness He was anointed with the oil of gladness because He hated sin and loved righteousness. We too will be full of joy and gladness as we allow Him to shine and radiate His Righteousness thru us. "We have this treasure in earthen vessels." GOd bless you Thank you for your clear presentation of the truths of the gospel.

The only Righteousness that please God is the Righteousness of His Son. What a beautiful glorious righteousness.

God revealed His Glory to Moses which to me is the heart of the Law of Moses. God revealed that His glory is His heart: He is
Gracious
Compassionate
Longsuffering
Abounding in Lovingkindness
Abounding in Faithfulness
Forgiving (Merciful)
Just

This is the Righteousness of God. Only Jesus perfectly reflected the heart of God. Only Jesus was Perfect. “He that has seen Him has seen the Father.”

We are to clothe ourself with Christ…and abide in Him. He will then abide in us and bring His perfect rightousness with Him.

God is interested in restoring us back into the image of God, which means we were created to reflect His heart.

Coming to Him and receiving Christ, immediately and in a moment God imputes Christ’s righteousness to us. Then day by day He imparts His righteousness to us as He abides in us. THus any righteousness we have is from Him and all glory is His.

“For by beholding Him we are transformed into likeness from one degree of glory into another by the Spirit of the Lord.”

The glory of God revealed to Moses on Sinai was the Righteousness of Christ. That is why God had Him go up the Mount and radiate Light and Majestic glory before Moses and Elijah. Both men saw the glory of God and both were hidden in a Rock. That tells me that was Jesus revealing His glory to bothe Moses and Elijah in the OT. And He is revealing today to all who come to Him.

He is “THE LORD our RIGHTEOUSNESS”

God our Father now desires us to reflect His glory. “He predestined us to be conformed into the image of His Son.”

May GOd help us all to put on HIS:
graciousness
compassion
patience
Lovingkindness
Faithfulness
Mercy leading to forgiveness
Justness

He was anointed with the oil of gladness because He hated sin and loved righteousness. We too will be full of joy and gladness as we allow Him to shine and radiate His Righteousness thru us. “We have this treasure in earthen vessels.”

GOd bless you

Your insights and clarity in writing are tremendous; anyone who reads this will be richly blessed. God is present here. You have allowed yourself to be a conduit for Him, reaching many who are earnestly searching for truth. God not only speaks through the scholar with multiple degrees, but also through those who are humble and willing. I have been studying diligently for 4+ yrs after escaping from a legalistic church (SDA). I found this site after reading Malachi 3:1 where there is an obvious reference to Jesus being our covenant. Yes, He is our everything! I also loved your thoughts about the Christian 'church'. This has always been a difficult question for many. His 'church' is not found in one particular institution or belief system. Praise God. We saw how that worked out already with the Jewish nation! Thank you so much for placing your writings on the Internet! Joseph,

I recall a time when I was struggling to be a "better" Christian. The Lord asked me, "Just who is going to grow the fruit of the Spirit?" I realized it could only be the Lord. Then He gave me one very important word, "Yield." This helped me to stop struggling and walk with Him as a Christian. The Law of Love, the Law of Christ, is in our hearts. God richly bless! Lorin,

Recently, I had been studying the commandments of Christ contained in the New Covenant and was somewhat perplexed by the number of commandments listed in the gospels and the epistles. However, I came across your article Our Covenant and it explained my situation exactly. It has been a tremendous blessing reading the revelation that the Holy Spirit imparts to those who truly seek God. Christ in us is the hope of glory. Praise the Lord. Be encouraged, Brother Lorin Smith PS By the way, the site that lists the commandments of Jesus Christ is Berean Publishers. The author of those articles really needs to read a number of articles posted on this website. Dear Brother Joseph,
