Jesus didn't die on the cross for a single righteous person as there are are non righteous, we "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God!" Romans 3:23
No one is righteous:
Psalm 143:2
Enter not into judgment with your servant, for no one living is righteous before you.
Romans 5:6
For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.
Christ died as a ransom for many:
Matthew 20:28
Even as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
Chris died for His sheep:
John 10:15
just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.
Chris died for His bride:
Ephesians 5:25
Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.
Saved by grace through faith, not by works, but for good works!
Ephesians 2
And you were dead in the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience - among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind. But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ - by grace you have been saved - and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.
Repent:
Acts 2:38
And Peter said to them, "Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Acts 3:19
Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord,
Salvation in NO other name but in CHRIST ALONE:
Acts 4:12
Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name (Jesus) under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.”
Romans 1:16-17
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed—a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.
