Rom.10:10 For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

Here a legal Christian's reads the words “unto righteousness” their thinking goes immediately to the laws/commandments, and/or their religions laws, but is this the righteousness Paul spoke to here, or another?

Romans 6:18 Being made free from sin, you became bondservants of righteousness.

Well, let us reason, can a Christian's with their mouth confess the Old Law and be saved? Can they confess a religion and be saved? In fact, can they confess anything other than Christ and be saved? So who's righteousness are we confessing? Most Christian's really don't understand that Christ Jesus righteousness replaced the righteousness of the Old Law, or for that matter any laws created to punish sin in humans!

Romans 6:19 I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh, for as you presented your members as servants to uncleanness and to wickedness upon wickedness, even so now present your members as servants to righteousness for sanctification.

A sinner must confess Christ Jesus righteousness which removes their judgment as the lamb of God, in their heart, and with their mouth. Simply put, one cannot legal confess something before God in a contract of faith through some legal religious organization, no! Why? Because Christ gave a complete heart sacrifice to God too gain us. So what is Christ Jesus righteousness? It is his perfect life without sin abolished our deserved judgment under God's law for sinners. Christ was a self-righteous man, not needing forgiveness of sin through blood. He walk in his own integrity and gave us that perfect life as a gift of God's love.

Romans 8:10 If Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the spirit is alive because of righteousness.

Romans 9:31 but Israel, following after a law of righteousness, didn't arrive at the law of righteousness.

Hence, fulfilling the Old Laws judgment against human convicting them of being a sinner deserving of death. Now Christ righteousness stands as the thing saving us, but legally our knowing this does not save us, or by repeating the words Christ Jesus over and over again, no! What saves us is our own love and faith in God goodness towards us as a Father, whom we love because he is so good as withholding nothing to save us from this body under going death.

Subsequently, this love cannot be legislated, bought or sought through a lack of faith which is imputing evil to a good Father that gives only good gift to his children. Hence, this is what was lost by Adam and Eve, and must be gain through our own faith in love.

Romans 10:3 For being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they didn't subject themselves to the righteousness of God. 4 For Christ is the fulfillment{or, completion, or end} of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.

James 1:16 Don't be deceived, my beloved brothers. 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning shadow. 1:18 Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.
