4 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “righteousness” →
I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.
Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law.
For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.
