[FONT="]Christ clothes us in His righteousness[/FONT][FONT="]
Isaiah 61:10[/FONT][FONT="]
(10) I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, [/FONT][FONT="]he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness,[/FONT][FONT="] as a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels.
[/FONT][FONT="]Romans 3:22[/FONT][FONT="]
(22) Even [/FONT][FONT="]the righteousness of God which is by faith[/FONT][FONT="] of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
It is only the righteousness of Christ which can make us perfect, no amount of obeying can make us perfect, Christ lived a perfect life for us (His righteousness). We are not only saved by His death but by His life.
[/FONT][FONT="]Romans 5:10[/FONT][FONT="]
(10) For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be [/FONT][FONT="]saved by his life.
[/FONT][FONT="]We are not saved by good works we are saved for good works
[/FONT][FONT="]Ephesians 2:8-10[/FONT][FONT="]
(8) For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
(9) Not of works, lest any man should boast.
(10) For we are his workmanship, [/FONT][FONT="]created in Christ Jesus unto good works,[/FONT][FONT="] which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
The only way we can overcome is to surrender to Him (die to self)
[/FONT][FONT="]Romans 6:16[/FONT][FONT="]
(16) Know ye not, that to [/FONT][FONT="]whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey[/FONT][FONT="], his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
We are not saved by our works but, by His works, all we can do is to surrender and let Him work in us
