ed opinion:  we must have correct knowledge of our father God as well as a zeal for him. We must come to know and understand and submit to God’s righteousness.

God’s word (with some paraphrasing): for Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. Righteousness based on faith says, “don’t look for Christ up there or down there, but realize that Christ is as near you as the word”.  He should be on your lips and in your heart.  Confess with your mouth your lord Jesus’s words and believe in your heart that God, your father, raised him from the dead, and you are saved.  With your heart you believe and are justified, and with your mouth you agree with what your Lord says. Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame; for everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. Believe that Jesus is the Messiah.
