What is the ETERNAL RIGHTEOUSNESS of Almighty God?

The RIGHTEOUSNESS of Almighty God is the complete ETERNAL estate of moral and spiritual PERFECTION. Nothing lacking, nothing adding, perfect and absolute in all its ways. Incorruptible, indestructible, unchanging, and undefinable. Never can it be tainted nor altered. The fruit and outworking of RIGHTEOUSNESS can ONLY produce peace, completeness, equity, stability, harmony, and order (Isa. 32:17, 48:18, Rev. 21, 22:1-5).

Almighty God is ETERNALLY RIGHTEOUS and in ALL His ways HE is ETERNALLY RIGHTEOUS, COMPLETE, WHOLE, LACKING NOTHING, NEEDING NOTHING, ABSOLUTE and PERFECT in ALL HIS WAYS (bible verses).

For example; 2+2=4 is an absolute. It is complete, whole, perfect, and sound in all its ways; NEVER to be altered, NEVER to be corrupted. Whenever it is used it can ONLY bring about harmony, peace, stability, and order. All the efforts of Satan and man can NEVER change the absolute properties and completeness of 2+2=4 nor can ALL the efforts of Satan (the Father of lies and disorder - John 8:44) and fallen man (Eph. 2:1-2) alter nor change the ETERNAL RIGHTEOUSNESS and ABSOLUTE CHARACTER of Almighty God and His Person. Almighty God the ETERNAL Father, Son, and Holy Spirit ARE ETERNALLY ABSOLUTE and ONLY work and create in RIGHTEOUS ABSOLUTES! He is INDEED HOLY and DIFFERENT from all His finite creation!

Good to hear from my brother again!

Talking about the things of God never gets old. The most crucial dictionary definition for righteousness you cited is this:
1. Just; accordant to the divine law. Applied to persons, it denotes one who is holy in heart, and observant of the divine commands in practice; as a righteous man. Applied to things, it denotes consonant to the divine will or to justice; as a righteous act. It is used chiefly in theology, and applied to God, to his testimonies and to his saints. The righteous, in Scripture, denote the servants of God, the saints.

The reason I say that is because it fits in with the Bible's own definition in Psalm 119:172 "My tongue shall speak of Thy word: for all Thy commandments are righteousness."
This goes hand in glove with the Lord's own words in the Sermon on the Mount: "But seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you."

The concepts of righteousness and holiness require a Thinking Cap. Not many own one nor do they desire one..............

I will admit that thinking about these gives me a headache at times.

Let him who has ears to hear...........

Ears to hear and Thinking Caps are gifts.

True! A great pondering exercise or all!
We have to look at ourselves in God’s PERFECT mirror - and then see how He is RIGHTEOUS, COMPLETE and PERFECT and we are not at all, The 10 commandments are the mirror, and as we look we can see we can never keep them with our whole heart, soul, and mind perfectly because we are fallen (James 2:10). As we continue to see who we are and who God is, we are more aware of who He is and who we truly are (John 3:21).

Also, the creation (earth and heavens etc) were founded on natural laws, absolutes, laws (element table, science/moral) etc... He creates in absolutes to show He is ABSOLUTE and RIGHTEOUS (Rom. 1:19-20).

We have to be made COMPLETE and PERFECT in Him for we as fallen humanity can never do it our self. We are a broken egg as it were (Psalm 19:1-7, Rom. 3:23, 6:23, 10:2-4). That is really the GOOD NEWs or Gospel and why Jesus came to die for our transgressions against the RIGHTEOUS Person of Almighty God. He is the Propitiation (John 3:16-17, 1 John 4:10)

When we see HE is COMPLETE and PERFECT (RIGHTEOUS) and we are not (UNrighteous), then we are ready to be saved and see why Jesus is so ETERNALLY crucial for us in Adam’s fallen race (Rom. 5:12-2).

As you stated, how many really want to see and know this ETERNAL TRUTH (John 3:19-21)? After 30 years of walking with the Lord I have seen very few come to a saving relationship to the Savior as the Bible so simply, precisely and completely states. Unbelief (Heb. 11:6), tradition (Matt. 15:3-9) and the personal choice of blindness (John 9:39-41/ 2 Cor. 4:2-4) and the love of darkness (John 3:19-21) keep the world lost and ETERNALLY doomed (John 3:36)!

Amen! Great verse you shared in Psalm 119! I personally believe that Psalm 119 is all about the RIGHTEOUS character and Person of Jesus Christ (and God Head) and His RIGHTEOUS attributes; experiencing them and enjoying them in an abiding relationship to Him (Gal. 2:20/1 Peter 1:7-9)! and Matt. 6:33 is crucial and key for a saving relationship to God and all He has for us!

God speed bro!
