Jeremiah 23:6

This is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.

I will go in the strength of the Lord God: I will make mention of thy righteousness, even of thine only.

It will always give a Christian the greatest calm, quiet, ease, and peace, to think of the perfect righteousness of Christ.

How often are the saints of God downcast and sad! I do not think they ought to be. I do not think they would if they could always see their perfection in Christ.

He hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

The Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.—Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.—As by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

We are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags.

I will go in the strength of the Lord God: I will make mention of thy righteousness, even of thine only.
