Real righteousness in scripture has a price. In the bible there is no black Friday sales on the price of perfect acts of real righteousness. If you tell me that God demands righteousness that is practiced by a man then there are two kinds of righteousness. There are two kinds of salvation.
If there are two kinds of righteousness then man is the judge. It would cause an endless argument on what the acceptable standard of a righteous act and according to every man. So you could demand compliance in a organization as the proof of biblical righteousness and get every person to comply. What you are saying is that the righteousness of the organization meets the standard of the righteousness of Christ or you would create two standards that are equal which is a contradiction. You know that some people live like there are two standards. But they will never admit it.
If there are two standards of righteousness then there are two prices that qualify it as righteous. The whole point of the reality of the biblical righteousness is there is no price that man can pay to get that righteousness. But yet you can qualify by paying the other price even tho is infinitely lower in which there is not consequence of falling short of Christ standard. Now you are playing with peoples conscience because your are making the standard mysterious. There is only one true price. There is only one true value. If there were two different values then Christ is not the only real man.
