Obedience leads to righteousness! Do you not believe it? Obedience to his commandments is the sole path to righteousness. That is the “garment” that you need desperately to be admitted to the wedding feast.Romans 10:4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.
The *garment* we put on is CHRIST. HIS righteousness is given to us.
2 Corinthians 5:21 For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

Do you not understand what the “end” of anything is?
The end is the purpose.
No righteousness is given to anyone. If it were, Matthew 7 would not be in the Bible.
Righteousness is the result of obedience. That is what the word says; ask WVKayaker, he posted the verses that say so.
Yeshua says so, Paul says so, John says so, James says so, Peter says so.
Metmom says no; who should we believe?
