Imparting God’s Righteousness

“Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ:”
‭‭2 Peter‬ ‭1:1‬ ‭KJV‬‬
Peter had obtained the precious faith to believe in the risen Christ even after denying and disregarding the Word Jesus had spoken to him.  But with repentance he received forgiveness and the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ.  We receive the righteousness of God only through repentance and forgiveness...this is the like precious faith that each person receives who is able to repent and depend on the mercies of our God for forgiveness.  That’s how Peter received the righteousness of God.  This is how we receive the righteousness of God.  Only through Jesus our Saviour.  Let’s thank Jesus for imparting His righteousness to us and we obtain the like precious faith with us.  Thank You Jesus.
