Who and what are the righteous? For those who believe there is no God, the righteous doesn’t exist. If fact, right or wrong, good and evil would only be something arbitrary subject to whatever someone, any person will say it is. Everyone would determine its meaning for themselves. This makes the terms essentially meaningless. If man was made and created by God, then righteousness is behavior and actions approved by God. Some things can be known by and through conscience. A conscience informs us of good and evil. What we wouldn’t want others to do to us our conscience informs us we shouldn’t do to others. Who then are the righteous among us? Who among us behaviors and actions are approved by God? How many would God find among us if He began to count the righteous? Abraham thought about his nephew lot when God informed him He would destroy the city of Sodom. Who are we thinking about? Abraham wanted to save his nephew. Who do we want to save? God could not find 10 righteous individuals and destroyed the city. But for Abraham’s sake, he spared his nephew Lot. Righteousness is a matter of faith. It has also been by faith, not by works. Believing in God, living for God and pleasing God in one’s time. God is still counting the righteous. And for their sake, the world is not destroyed. When the righteous reach a certain point or number only known to God, then God will call for an end of this world. At that time, the righteous through all generations will be revealed and the unrighteous shall all perish.
