Let me ask you this: Is there such a thing as a righteous man on this Earth? God tells us that our righteousness is as filthy rags before Him: But we are all like an unclean thing, And all our righteousness are like filthy rags; We all fade as a leaf, And our iniquities, like the wind, Have taken us away. And there is no one who calls on Your name, Who stirs himself up to take hold of You; For You have hidden Your face from us, And have consumed us because of our iniquities. Isaiah 64:6-7 Why then, does He go on to say that there is a such thing as a righteous man when referring to the effective, fervent prayers of men and women such as Elijah?? The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months. And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit. James 5:16-18 Is God confused? What is going on here? Either there is a such a thing as a righteous person or there isnt? Wussup with you, Jehovah God? What is going on? Let us look at this Scripture: For I say to you, that unless your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 5:20 The Pharisees and the the Saducees of Christ day were the religious leaders that relied on self-sufficient, worldly class built upon self-judgment models in which they justified their pride, lust, and sins. Hmmm? It appears that the Lord is referring to a different type of righteous in some of these passages. Let us take a peak at another Scripture: “Is this not the fast that I have chosen: To loose the bonds of wickedness, To undo the heavy burdens, To let the oppressed go free, And that you break every yoke? Is it not to share your bread with the hungry, And that you bring to your house the poor who are cast out; When you see the naked, that you cover him, And not hide yourself from your own flesh? Then your light shall break forth like the morning, Your healing shall spring forth speedily, And your righteousness shall go before you; The glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard. Then you shall call, and the Lord will answer; You shall cry, and He will say, ‘Here I am.’ Isaiah 58:6-9 Hmmm?? It appears that when an individual humbles themselves, seeks Gods face, turns from their wicked ways, and prays with fasting that they remove the strongholds that the fallen angels, which work in collusion with satan, have placed over them, those yokes that prevent bodily renewal and spiritual cleansing, and upon doing such there is a righteousness that the Lord instill within a vessel for the operation of light, life, and the way of love, which is Christ. Dont take my word for it, test everything with His Word: If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14 It certainly appears that the Lord wants our righteousness to come from him, not ourselves, and upon seeking Him and working for it, one may become more righteous. Do you know what I mean?? This is why Moses had to wear a veil! Woah!! A veil. Therefore, since we have such hope, we use great boldness of speech— unlike Moses, who put a veil over his face so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the end of what was passing away. But their minds were blinded. For until this day the same veil remains unlifted in the reading of the Old Testament, because the veil is taken away in Christ. But even to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies on their heart. Nevertheless when one turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord. 2 Corinthians 3:12-18 It also appears that the Bible, the Word of Creation and Life, is our mirror for the transforming of one into a more righteous and holy man or lady of the Lord. Do you know what I mean? We literally have no light in our spirit once we reach the age of accountability, but upon believing in our heart that Jesus is Lord and confessing with our mouths that God raised Him from the grave, we begin to shed light. The Word is light! Do you know what I mean? Is it possible that one may acquire such an amount of light and righteous from the Lord through His Holy Spirit that they become a righteous man or lady? Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing. 2 Timothy 4:8 Yes! There is a freaking Crown of Righteousness! Woah!! So, we should ask ourselves: When is one righteous? Not the self-sufficient righteousness of the religious leaders of Christ day that attempted to hide and conceal their darkness through slander, gossip, rape, lies, murder, thievery, and persecution of the . . . Godly righteous . . . but Godly righteousness? When is one in align with Godly righteousness?? Well, let us take another look as James 5:16-17: The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months. And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit. James 5:16-18 It did not rain for 3 and a half years after Elijah did what?? Did He not . . . perform the will of God!? For such is the will of God that by doing [right] you may silence the ignorance of foolish men. 1 Peter 2:15 Theres that word right again. Do you know what He means?? It definitely appears that there is a such thing as a righteous person when an individual is in align with the Lords will, doing the right thing according to thelight and leadership of the Lord, and there is a Crown of Righteous that one is earning each time they are living and standing in the gap for righteousness and in the righteous man or lady zone! Do you know what I mean!?!?! Amazingly enough!! There is a such thing as a righteous person on this Earth, even among sinners. Glory be to God! But let me tell you this. Dont boast about it when you are living in His righteousness unless it is in His will and in His name and in His glory, for the sake of plundering hell, populating heaven, and shaming and disgracing disobedient and lawless criminals within our bodies elect, lest your righteous turns back into dirty, little judgment rags fit for the covering of sins by collusion with other sinisters of the Gateway to hell and for the Celebration of the Will that Is of little ole beelzebubby himself. Remember, you are created in the image of God: Spirit; Soul; Body You are three peoples in one! Intriguing, isnt it!? God the Father is the intangible, He created matter God the Son is the tangible, He shaped it into form God the Spirit is the vehicle of momentum, working the other two together through the momentum of Grace Look also at the following Scripture: And God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” Exodus 3:14 God is the beginning of thought, of idea, the start of all things prior to their invention, but three in one, just like He created us! Let us worship Him not just with our minds, but with our hearts. One will never fully comprehend these wisdoms with worshipping Him with their minds only. Let us make our fellowship about worshipping Him, not our own righteousness and sins through misdirection. Glory be to God!
