I began to understand that the righteousness of God is that by which the righteous lives by a gift of God, namely by faith.
Let your reverence for the presence of God prevent your sinning against Him and let it motivate you to live a life pleasing to the Lord
Grace gives a Christian his form and being, his work and his working, for all working is from the inward being and form of things. By grace we are what we are in justification, and work what we work in sanctification. (Works, 6:245) Richard Sibbes
Augustine of Hippo
Christ, though guiltless, took our punishment, that He might cancel our guilt, and do away with our punishment.
Christ so took and bare our sins, and had them so laid upon him, as that he underwent the punishment due unto them, and that in our stead: therefore, he made satisfaction to the justice of God for them. John Owen
