When we minister the message of GRACE to others, they can grow in righteousness. Godliness results from ministering the new covenant of GRACE, because it is a ministry of righteousness. The message of GRACE tells people that righteousness is available by faith. But now the righteousness of GOD apart from the law is revealed…even the righteousness of GOD which is through faith in JESUS Christ to all and on all who believe (Romans 3:21-22). In addition to this initial gift of righteousness (imputed, or credited to our account in heaven), GRACE also provides ongoing practical righteousness (imparted for our daily lives on earth): That the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the SPIRIT (Romans 8:4).
