In the Bible "unrighteousness " doesn't mean what most think it does!

We live under the New Covenant not the Old.

UNRIGHTEOUS doesn't mean if someone is sinful or not.

Under the New Covenant, sin is still sin, all sin and we still for short of the glory of God.

Now, no matter who / what you have been, UNRIGHTEOUSNESS is simply being a BELIEVER or NOT...are you RIGHTEOUS or NOT!

UNRIGHTEOUSNESS simply means , not that you are a Sinner but, that you are a Sinner who is RIGHTEOUS....YOU ARE COVERED BY THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF CHRIST IN YOU; NOT YOURSELF!!!

I think you should post at least one verse of the Word of GOD in your message. The Word is GOD, understand? What do you think?
For example: Romans 1:18 and 29-32

18 For the wrath of GOD is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the Truth in unrighteousnes

29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,

30 Backbiters, haters of GOD, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:

32 Who knowing the Judgment of GOD, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
 
Greetings in the Lord

The righteous live by faith.
The unrighteous lives according to this world and all it has to offer.
Hence, we can not serve God and mammon...why? We will love the one and hate the other.

The world is all around us. And according to the Preacher in Ecclesiastes, he tells us all through the book by his observations, this world, and everything in it is here for vanity and vexation of Spirit. To pull us away from God.

Could be the reason Jesus tells us to Forsake ALL, pick up your cross and follow me. Or, Be ye separate from this world.

All praise glory and honor be unto God. Amen
 
UNRIGHTEOUSNESS
G93 ἀδικία adikia 1) injustice, of a judge 2) unrighteousness of heart and life 3) a deed violating law and justice, act of unrighteousness
From G94; (legal) injustice (properly the quality, by implication the act); moral wrongfulness (of character, life or act): - iniquity, unjust, unrighteousness, wrong.
G94 ἄδικος adikos From G1 (as a negative particle) and G1349; unjust; by extension wicked; by implication treacherous; specifically heathen: - unjust, unrighteous.

UNRIGHTEOUSNESS, n. unri'chusness. Injustice; a violation of the divine law, or of the plain principles of justice and equity; wickedness.
Unrighteousness may consist of a single unjust act, but more generally, when applied to persons, it denotes an habitual course of wickedness. Rom 1:6. 2Cor 6.
Every transgression of the law is unrighteousness.
 
Titus 2:11 For the grace of God hath appeared to all men bringing salvation,
12 instructing us, that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly and righteously and godly in this present age;
13 awaiting the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
14 who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify to himself a people for his possession, zealous of good works.
 
We, who are Believers , are covered by the RIGHTEOUSNESS of Jesus.
That is what God is referring to when He he says we are RIGHTEOUS..
Christ RIGHTEOUSNESS in us!!!!
 
We, who are Believers , are covered by the RIGHTEOUSNESS of Jesus.
That does not apply to all "believers."
People can and do believe in the wrong faiths and doctrines.
Righteousness and the fine linen of the saints belong exclusively to those baptized in water and the Holy Spirit - Pentecostal Christians.
The Holy Spirit is our covering hiding our nakedness.

Nevertheless the foundation of GOD standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are His. And, let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. In a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. 2 Timothy 2:19-20

Revelation 22:11-12

11 - He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.

12 - And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
 
The Bible uses the terms righteous and unrighteous in two ways when it speaks of people.

The first is moral: acts of righteousness are fits of rage, greed, idolatry, lust etc; acts of righteousness flow from love, patience and faith.

The second is relational - our standing before God. Will God welcome us into his kingdom?
