Lutheran Confession Quote

III.  The Righteousness of Faith Before God

Against both the errors just mentioned, we unanimously believe, teach, and confess that Christ is our Righteousness neither according to His divine nature alone nor according to His human nature alone.  But it is the entire Christ who is our Righteousness according to both natures.  In His obedience alone, which as God and man He offered to the Father even to His death, He merited for us the forgiveness of sins and eternal life."

Formula, Epitome III 3.
