Indeed.Forgive me for butting in here, but I need clarification.
Your premise is: Through "one Man's" ("Christ," I assume) righteous act, men are justified and declared righteous.
Your conclusion is: Righteousness is "tied directly to an action," which was a decision made "within the Spirit of the Living God."
You have switched from accrediting the Son of God with righteousness, to a decision made by God the Holy Spirit, have you not?
What was the specific "righteous act" that justified sinners? When was it decided, and who performed it?

Like Mystery stated earlier: "God does what He is, not is what he does."
In other words:
"What God is like should be used to explain what God is doing in the Scriptures."
