"And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God require from you, but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways and love Him, and to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul." Deuteronomy 10:12

In Micah 6 we see,
"With what shall I come to the Lord,
And bow myself before the High God?..." Vs. 6 " He has shown you, O man, what is good; And what does the Lord require of you But to do justly, to love mercy, And to walk humbly with your God?" Vs. 8

Psalm 15 in my New King James Version is entitled, The Characteristics of the Godly:
"Lord, who may abide in Your tabernacle?
Who may dwell in Your holy hill? Vs. 1

      Vs. 2-5 answers these questions:
2 "He who walks uprightly, And works righteousness, And speaks the truth in his heart;
3 He who does not backbite with his tongue, Nor does evil to his neighbor, Nor does he take up a reproach against his friend;
4 In whose eyes a vile person is despised, But he honors those who fear the Lord; He who swears to his own hurt and does not change;
5 He who does not put out his money at usury, Nor does he take a bribe against the innocent."
       The result:
5b "He who does these things shall never be moved."

Concerning access:
Jesus says, "I am the door; if anyone enters through Me, he shall be saved..."
John 10:9

"Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand..." Romans 5:2-3

*Jesus is the way!

Of righteousness and truthfulness:
Jesus in His Sermon on the Mount says,
"For I say to you, that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven."
Matthew 5:20

"...Put on the new man which was created according to God, in righteousness and true holiness." Ephesians 4:24

"Therefore, putting away lying, each one speak truth with his neighbor, for we are members of one another." Ephesians 4:25

As part of the armor of God, Ephesians 6:14 says, "Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness."

The Apostle Paul prays that the Philippians, "Having been filled with the fruits of righteousness which comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God." Philippians 1:11

"These are the things you shall do; speak each man the truth to his neighbor; give judgment in your gates for truth, justice, and peace."
Zechariah 8:16
We know that it is only in Christ that we are able to stand in righteousness and truth. For in Jesus is truth and it is He who has become our righteousness!

*Jesus is truth!

And we see in 1 Corinthians l:31,
"But by His doing you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption."

All praise and thanks to you Lord, for this life you have lovingly called us unto! And, thank You for the provision of the Holy Spirit who leads us in our walk here on earth.
"...Walk in the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh."
Galatians 5:16
All glory be to our Mighty God.  Amen
