What Does It Mean That, YHWH Is Our Righteousness?

"YHWH Is Our Righteousness" is one of the compound names of God that describes Him as, not only righteous but, righteousness on our behalf. How are we supposed to understand that Someone can be righteousness for us when that doesn't seem to work in our human relationships? When many see the fulfillment of this in the person of Jesus Christ, they assume it means we have no obligation to behave righteously anymore since He did it for us.

 

Commandments? Laws? Good works? None of these are meant to SAVE a person (they couldn't even at their best), but if our King has shown us and offered us His righteousness, should we continue in sin that grace may abound? Certainly not.
