Luke tells us what we must do to be righteous before God when he describes Zachariah and his wife, Elizabeth.
“And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.“
Luke 1:6 NKJV
We need to walk in the commandments of the Lord blameless, living them out.
“Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” Mathew 22:34-40
Do you love the Lord with all your heart and soul (will, mind and emotions)? And do you love others as you love yourself?
