As believers in Jesus, God has assigned His righteousness to us through His Son.  By His grace, through faith in Jesus, we have been made right with God and righteous in God!  Hallelujah!  That is why we He is called Yahweh-Tsidkenu…or…”Yahweh our Righteousness.”

Jeremiah 33:16

In those days Judah will be saved and Jerusalem will dwell in safety; and this is the name by which she will be called: “Yahweh is our righteousness.”

2 Corinthians 5:17-21

17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. 18 Now all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation. 20 Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. 21 He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

“When He shall come with trumpet sound, oh, may I then in Him be found. Dressed in His righteousness alone, faultless to stand before the throne.”
