about righteousness
Romans 1:17 For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed--a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: "The righteous will live by faith." (Habakkuk 2:4)
Romans 3:21-24 But now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.
1 Peter 3:18 For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive in the Spirit.
because I am going to the Father
John 16:28 "I came from the Father and entered the world; now I am leaving the world and going back to the Father."
John 7:33 Jesus said, "I am with you for only a short time, and then I am going to the one who sent me."
and about judgment because the prince of this world now stands condemned
John 12:31 "Now is the time for judgment on this world; now the prince of this world will be driven out."
2 Corinthians 4:4 The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
