ROMANS 1:16 NKJV
For I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL of CHRIST, for it is the POWER of GOD to salvation for everyone who BELIEVES, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.
Meaning of Israel - To rule as God
Israelites were God chosen people to rule as God.
Our righteousness is not acceptable to God.
Believe that Jesus is the only righteousness.
Righteousness is the ability to stand before Jesus and the Devil without fear, condemnation, guilt, shame and inferiority.
ROMANS 1:17 TPT
This GOSPEL unveils a CONTINUAL REVELATION of GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS —a PERFECT righteousness GIVEN to us when we BELIEVE. And it moves us from RECEIVING LIFE through faith, to the POWER of LIVING by faith. This is what the Scripture means when it says: “We are RIGHT with GOD through LIFE-GIVING FAITH !”
ROMANS 5:16 TPT
And this free-flowing gift imparts to us much more than what was given to us through the one who sinned. For because of one transgression, we are all facing a DEATH SENTENCE with a verdict of “GUILTY! ” But this gracious gift leaves us FREE from our many failures and brings us into the PERFECT RIGHTEOUSNESS of GOD —ACQUITTED with the WORDS “NOT GUILTY! ”
Sin was not imputed to anyone when there was no law.
We deserve punishment. We deserve to die. We deserve to go to hell.
But Jesus took the punishment that we deserved on Himself.
Acquitted - free (someone) from a criminal CHARGE by a verdict of not guilty:
"she was acquitted on all counts"· "the jury acquitted Bream of murder"
When we are set free, we are legally set free.
God legally finished the redemption for us.
Go out from the jail of fear, cage of condemnation, guilt, shame and inferiority and hold our head up high.
ROMANS 5:13 KJV
(For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not IMPUTED when there is no law). In the legal and theological sense of the word it means to put something to someone’s account upon adequate grounds as the judicial reason for reward or punishment. So that to impute sin means to IMPUTE the GUILT of SIN. The obligation to satisfy justice that is guilt, the guilt of our sin.
ROMANS 3:23 NKJV
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
ROMANS 6:23 NKJV
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
ROMANS 8:1 TPT
So NOW the CASE is CLOSED. There remains no accusing voice of condemnation against those who are joined in life-union with Jesus, the Anointed One.

For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which RECEIVE ABUNDANCE of GRACE and of the GIFT of RIGHTEOUSNESS shall REIGN in LIFE by ONE, JESUS CHRIST.)
The Guilty Person cannot rule and reign as Judge and King
Only a Righteous Person can rule as Judge and King
Who can Rule and Reign in Life?
JESUS [JEHOVAH-TSIDKENU] and his Righteous Shepherds
We need to understand more and more of His righteousness.
ROMANS 5:19 TPT
One man’s disobedience opened the door for all humanity to become sinners. So also one man’s obedience OPENED the DOOR for many to be made perfectly right with God and acceptable to him.
ROMANS 5:20 TPT
So then, the law was introduced into God’s plan to bring the reality of human sinfulness out of hiding. And yet, wherever sin increased, there was more than enough of God’s grace to triumph all the more!
ROMANS 5:21 TPT
And just as sin reigned through death, so also this SIN-CONQUERING GRACE will REIGN as KING through RIGHTEOUSNESS, imparting ETERNAL LIFE through JESUS, our LORD and MESSIAH! [JEHOVAH-TSIDKENU]
Think of what Jesus's righteousness has done for us despite of our sins.
