And the result of doing what is right will be peace; and the outcome of righteousness will be calmness and confidence forever.

But here's the plot twist — God's way of making things right has nothing to do with following every rule perfectly. And honestly? The law and all those old prophets were pointing to this the whole time.

Listen up — don't let anyone mess with your head about this: if you're actually doing what's right, then you ARE righteous, just like Jesus is righteous.
