The Who of Our Righteousness and The How of Our Righteousness
Jeremiah 23 “Woe to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture!” says
the LORD. 2 Therefore thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, concerning the shepherds who care for

to them. Behold, I will attend to you for your evil doings, says the LORD.

be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:
6 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which
thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.
The Anointing of King David
(1 Sam. 16)
Jeremiah 23 “Woe to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture!” says
the LORD. 2 Therefore thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, concerning the shepherds who care for
my people: “You have scattered my flock, and have driven them away, and you have not attended
to them. Behold, I will attend to you for your evil doings, says the LORD.
5 “Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will raise up for David a righteous Branch,
and he shall reign as king and deal wisely, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the
land. 6 In his days Judah will be saved, and Israel will dwell securely. And this is the name by which
he will be called: ‘The LORD is our righteousness.’
31 “Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will make a new covenant with the house of
Israel and with the house of Judah— 32 not according to the covenant that I made with their
fathers in the day thatI took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant
which they broke, [h]though I was a husband to them, says the LORD. 33 But this is the covenant that
I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the LORD: I will put My law in their minds,
and write it on their [i]hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. 34 No more shall
every man teach his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the LORD,’ for they all shall
know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the LORD. For I will forgive their
iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.”

DOUBLE IMPUTATION
Genesis 15 After this, the word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision:
“Do not be afraid, Abram.
I am your shield,[a]
your very great reward.[b]”
2 But Abram said, “Sovereign LORD, what can you give me since I remain childless and the one who
will inherit[c] my estate is Eliezer of Damascus?” 3 And Abram said, “You have given me no children;
so a servant in my household will be my heir.”
4 Then the word of the LORD came to him: “This man will not be your heir, but a son who is your
own flesh and blood will be your heir.” 5 He took him outside and said, “Look up at the sky and
count the stars—if indeed you can count them.” Then he said to him, “So shall your
offspring[d] be.”
6 Abram believed the LORD, and he credited it to him as righteousness.
4 What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh, discovered in this
matter? 2 If, in fact, Abraham was justified by works, he had something to boast about—but not
before God. 3 What does Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as
righteousness.”[a]
4 Now to the one who works, wages are not credited as a gift but as an obligation. 5 However, to
the one who does not work but trusts God who justifies the ungodly, their faith is credited as
righteousness. 6 David says the same thing when he speaks of the blessedness of the one to
whom God credits righteousness apart from works:
7 “Blessed are those
whose transgressions are forgiven,
whose sins are covered.
8 Blessed is the one
whose sin the Lord will never count against them.”
Matthew 3 The Baptism of Jesus
13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John.14 But John tried to deter
him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?”
15 Jesus replied, “Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all righteousness.” Then
John consented.
16 As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was
opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on him. 17 And a voice
from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.”

For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of
God in Him. 2 Corinthians 5:21
5 However, to the one who does not work but trusts God who justifies the ungodly, their faith is credited as righteousness. 6 David says the same thing when he speaks of the blessedness of the one to whom God credits righteousness apart from works

Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
