The Biggest Game Changer: Christ's Resurrection-Our Righteousness-No More Condemnation

By Patience Ekunno

And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.--John 8:32It is imperative for the world to know that God has made everyone righteous in Christ, and also God has given eternal life to everyone in this world through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. However, this righteous life becomes reality only by faith in Jesus Christ. The world needs to know that the price for man's sins has been paid in full, and a righteous life in Christ is made available for anyone who will believe. Jesus Christ is a gift of righteousness and eternal life to man by God as an act of His love for the world.For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him. (John 3:16-17)God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God. (2 Corinthians 5:21)God demonstrated His love, His righteousness, and His Justice when He made Jesus Christ, who knew no sin to be the sin of the world. God did not send Jesus Christ to the world to condemn the world but to reconcile the world to Himself through Him. God laid the sin of the world upon Him. Jesus was crucified and went to hell on behalf of man, and on the third day, after his death, God raised Him from the dead in His righteousness and eternal life by the power of the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ became born again. He became a new creature--the first to be born among the dead. Christ's resurrection, therefore, became the biggest game changer God played against Satan that made man righteous. It disarmed the kingdom of darkness. Christ's resurrection not only restored dominion to man but also created a new man in man--a righteous man in an eternal union with God. There is no more condemnation but exaltation in Christ in heavenly places.Get ready to discover the following:What righteousness isHow God made man righteous in ChristThe new manThe importance of Jesus Christ's resurrectionSin issues were finally put to restThe mystery of Christ's resurrectionThe benefits of our righteousness in Christ6

Introduction

The Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ is the Gospel of righteousness and eternal life of God in Christ. For in the Gospel, the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith according to the scripture.

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. (John 3:16–17 NIV)

God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. (2 Corinthians 5:21 NIV)

God made Jesus who knew no sin the sin of the world so that through Him, the world would be made righteous and reconciled to God. Therefore, when Jesus was judged and crucified in the eyes of God, it was the sin of the world. The world was judged and crucified on the cross, depicting the death of sin of mankind.

So when Jesus Christ was raised from the dead, in the righteousness and eternal life of God, by the Spirit of God, a new creature was birthed. Man was birthed anew in the eyes of God, born in the righteousness and in the Spirit of the living God. In this, God reconciled the world to Himself, and through faith in Jesus Christ, this new man in the righteousness of God becomes a reality.

The Gospel of Jesus Christ is, therefore, the Gospel of righteousness in the eternal life of God, a reconciliation of the world to God. It is a deliverance from sin to righteousness in Christ and from death to the eternal life of God in Christ.

That God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. (2 Corinthians 5:19 NIV)

The world's knowledge of its righteousness in Christ is crucial to its salvation and our walk in Christ as sons of God, heir of His kingdom, and joint heir with Christ. This is God-given righteousness in Christ for everyone who will believe.

What I am saying is that as long as an heir is underage, he is no different from a slave, although he owns the whole
