“Faith, Hope and Charity Bringeth Unto Me- the Fountain of All Righteousness”
Christ is the embodiment, the personification, of all righteousness. He is the fountain- the source and dispenser of all righteousness. We become righteous, pure, holy, and perfect through him and by his grace. The “fountain of righteousness” gives us “living waters” (see Jeremiah 17:13) even eternal life. Partaking of that gift is possible only as we have faith, hope, and charity in our lives. These principles lead us to him.
