The righteousness of God is one of the more challenging doctrines taught in all of the Scriptures. On one hand, it is an encouragement, because it means that God will always deal righteously with His people. But on the other hand, it is terrifying, because it means that God will also judge in righteousness and require perfect righteousness from anyone who would hope to enter into His kingdom.
