This is a very misunderstood topic. The righteousness of God has been lowered into something far less than miraculous and divine in our time. But let's give ourselves a chance to get things right.
I would like to begin by listing a few examples of the righteousness of God in action...from the bible.(I hope others will contribute as well)
Ananias and Sapphira lost their lives to the Spirit because they lied to God...how?
By the righteousness of God. No one laid a finger on them. God judged them according to His righteousness and holiness.
It is crucial to understand the scale of things and be able to understand comparisons...in order to understand the things of God.
For instance....God hides Himself as well as many things about Himself...from the wicked, the proud and the self-interested. But He reveals them to babes...the humble...the merciful and the diligent. This is according to righteousness. HIS righteousness.
