Philippians 3:9

Righteousness Through Christ

⁸ More than that, I count everything as loss, for the sake of the exceeding value of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord. And for his sake I have lost everything, and count it as refuse, if I may but gain Christ and be found in union with him; ⁹ Any righteousness that I have being, not the righteousness that results from Law, but the righteousness which comes through faith in Christ--the righteousness which is derived from God and is founded on faith. ¹⁰ Then indeed I shall know Christ, and the power of his resurrection, and all that it means to share his sufferings,
