John 1:16-18
16 And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. 17 For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. 18 No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him.
Everything in Christ we have been given, even His righteousness! What the law of rules we could never keep could not do, Jesus Christ did and gives us who come to Him truth of who He is and we are - and unmerited favor, grace, which we never could deserve. We only now can see God in Christ alone; Jesus reveals the Father to us, as He Himself is God's word and God. This is the true God and eternal life.
