Second Peter 1:1 says, “Simon Peter, a slave and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have been allotted faith equally precious as ours in the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ. ” This precious faith is allotted to us in the righteousness of God. The Bible speaks of three kinds of righteousness: First, Christ Himself is righteousness, and Jesus Christ becomes our righteousness. When God places us in Christ, Christ becomes our righteousness ( 1 Cor. 1:30 ). Second, there is the righteousness of Jesus Christ Himself. This refers to His walk and deeds while He was on the earth. Romans 5:18 speaks of “one righteous act, ” which is the righteous act of Christ’s death on the cross. God does not reckon Jesus’ righteous act as our righteousness, but He makes Jesus Christ our righteousness; thus, the righteousness of Jesus qualifies Him to be our Savior. Third, there is the righteousness of God. This refers to all of God’s doings being reasonable, legal, and therefore righteous ( 1:17 ; 3:21-26 ). Romans 1:17 For the righteousness of God is revealed in it out of faith to faith, as it is written, “But the righteous shall have life and live by faith. ”
Romans 3:21-26 But now, apart from the law, the righteousness of God has been manifested, witness being borne to it by the Law and the Prophets; Even the righteousness of God through the faith of Jesus Christ to all those who believe, for there is no distinction; For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, Being justified freely by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus; Whom God set forth as a propitiation place through faith in His blood, for the demonstrating of His righteousness, in that in His forbearance God passed over the sins that had previously occurred, With a view to the demonstrating of His righteousness in the present time, so that He might be righteous and the One who justifies him who is of the faith of Jesus.
The Living under God's Governmental Administration
in His Salvation and the Provisions of the Divine Life
Chapter 10 (LSM) CWWL, 1955, vol. 2
I Pray that all who have this song - meaningfully or not - will encounter the loving Grace in our Lord Jesus Christ, who, is more sufficient for us all. Amen!
God's dealing with His redeemed people through the Trinity was for the purpose of keeping them in the enjoyment of His riches through His divine dispensing. Without the Angel of Jehovah, Jehovah had no way to go with them in their midst. For Jehovah to be with His people, there was the need of the Angel. Today without Christ, God has no way to be with us. Furthermore, the cloud and the pillar of cloud were necessary for God to come to His people and stay with them. Similarly, today the Spirit, the pneumatic Christ, enables God to come to us and stay with us so that we may enjoy His presence. The crucified Christ as the cleft rock is our standing and hiding before the manifested God. Hymns, #298 says, "On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand; / All other ground is sinking sand." Hymns, #206 says, "I stand upon His merit; / I know no other stand." Because the crucified Christ, Christ in His death, is our standing and our hiding, we can communicate with and contact God. The merciful and governmental God and the rebellious, stiff-necked people can be brought together only through the Angel, the pillar of cloud, the cleft rock, and the hand of Jehovah, which typify Christ as God's sent One, the pneumatic Christ, Christ in His death, and Christ as the covering in God's manifestation. Because of the operation of the Trinity in this way, we now enjoy God's continual presence. Moreover, He manifests Himself to us, and we see Him in a hidden way. We have a standing and a hiding, a covering. This all-inclusive care of the Divine Trinity is for the purpose of His remaining with us to dispense Himself for our enjoyment.
