    Righteousness IMPUTED:

    The righteousness that is declared by God in the person of Christ is that which He alone accomplished and that which is IMPUTED. A preacher, or anyone for that matter, who thinks that this is a minor doctrine is not of God.

    -- Righteousness imputed means Christ is the doer and perfecter of it.
    -- Righteousness imputed means God's justice fulfilled and wrath appeased (propitiated).
    -- Righteousness imputed means the grounds to bestow eternal life and blessing have been met to God's satisfaction.
    -- Righteousness imputed means that every jot and tittle of the Law has been honored on behalf of the elect.
    -- Righteousness imputed means the glory of God is honored as all boasting is removed.
    -- Righteousness imputed exalts the grace and mercy towards the redeemed.
    -- Righteousness imputed means God stands as God … And it is free.

    Once again we have the line - denies Pauline Justification. Did Paul write through inspiration the New Testament book of Romans including Romans Chapter 4? Of course. What does it say?

    Romans 4:21-25
    and being fully assured that what God had promised, He was able also to perform.
    Therefore IT WAS ALSO CREDITED TO HIM [Abraham] AS RIGHTEOUSNESS. Now not for his sake only was it written that it was credited to him, but for our sake also, to whom it will be credited, to us who believe in Him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead,
    He who was delivered over because of our wrongdoings, and was raised because of our justification.


    Thus Pauline Justification teaches those whose faith is credited by God as righteousness are those God justifies through the blood of the Lamb. So simple a child can understand it.

    So do you believe in Him who raised Jesus from the dead?
