I can't remember these terms from the bible.The bible of course.
The holiness requirement is not fulfilled in righteousness. The only holiness that is possible is to enter into Christ and HIS righteousness. We put on Christ to approach God. So then Jesus alone fulfills the holiness requirement.
But we can operate at the much lower level of loving others as ourselves....and inherit life.
The difference is either ruling...or being ruled over.
In the army in order to be an officer...you need to go through extensive studies and a vetting process. Then you get a commission that gives you responsibility for the lives under your care.
But a soldier has none of these responsibilities. He just does as he's told.
So it is with the holy....and the righteous.
The next age will fully embody these things.
You mean the CONCEPT is from the bible??
I like the idea of putting on Christ myself.
Mathew 22:11-14
Romans 13:14
Galatians 3:27; 4:21
Galatians 2:19-21
God sees His Son and not our sinful selves.
Or, we could say that He loves us through His Son.
