False teaching. By the obedience of one are many made righteous Rom 5:19
The one is Christ-
Doing right and having faith has ALWAYS been what made one righteous.
In the case with Cain the jealous brother and murderer...who do you think was the righteous one, can or Abel?
Hebrews 11:4 By faith Abel offered God a greater sacrifice than Cain, and through his faith he was commended as righteous, because God commended him for his offerings. And through his faith he still speaks, though he is dead.
In the case with everyone on earth and Noah...who do you think was the righteous one?
The world was violent and wicked, but Noah was a preacher of what was right, so...
Genesis 6:8 But Noah found favor in the eyes of the LORD.
Genesis 7:1 The LORD then said to Noah, "Go into the ark, you and your whole family, because I have found you righteous in this generation.
How about Abraham? What happened because he obeyed and had faith in God?
Abraham. Genesis 22:18 and through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed me."
Job?
Job 1:1, 8 There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God...
How about David?
1 Kings 15:5 For David had done what was right in the eyes of the LORD and had not failed to keep any of the LORD's commands all the days of his life--except in the case of Uriah the Hittite.
Are you getting the picture?
Are you reading what is plainly written, and are you believing it?
Everyone who is righteous to God are those who do right and believe in Him.
How about Mary, the mother of Jesus.
Do you think she found favor with God because she did right?
Luke 1:30 But the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid,Mary; you have found favor with God.
How about Cornelius the first Gentiles to be saved and his whole household.
Acts 10:22 The men replied, "We have come from Cornelius the centurion. He is a righteous and God-fearing man, who is respected by all the Jewish people.
