The following are some of THE RIGHTEOUS.  After they were called by God they sinned:

ABRAHAM - lied, committed adultery

LOT - lived in Sodom and Gomorrah by choice - incest with daughters

MOSES - committed murder - disobeyed God

DAVID - committed murder and adultery - disobeyed God

SOLOMON - had many wives and concubines - built temples to false gods

PETER - denied the Lord - turned against the Gospel in Galatia

DEMAS - loved this evil world and forsook Paul

MARK - deserted his call during a mission trip with Paul and Barnabas

How can these and many others in the Bible who sinned be THE RIGHTEOUS?  Perhaps these articles can help you understand "the teaching about righteousness."
