The Blessings on the Righteous

2 Corinthians 5:21 is our ‘Golden Text.’  It explains one of the vital things the Lord Jesus did for us when He redeemed us from sin, sickness and the curse of the Law.  Jesus took our sins and the punishment for our sins upon Himself.  He gave us His righteousness or right standing with God the Father.  When we become a Christian, our past sins are cleansed and we become a child of God the Father.  We are loved by the Father as much as He loves Jesus.  Here are some of the blessings that are legally ours because we are righteous.  Declare that because you are a Christian, all of these blessings are yours.
