Many today believe in the “Imputed Righteousness of Christ” I’ve heard a few different explanations on what exactly this is by those who believe in it. But here are what is mostly said;
The bible also states that our hearts are made pure by faith not by a magical transaction of righteousness.
So in short.
Imputed righteousness is nothing more than being made righteous by faith, not being made righteous by Jesus righteousness or his obeying for us. We still have to obey. Remember “LET NO ONE DECEIVE YOU… He that DOES RIGHTEOUSNESS, IS RIGHTEOUS, even as HE IS RIGHTEOUS”. Those that deny this are trying to deceive you.
- When we believe a transaction happens and we are clothed or cloaked with the righteousness of Christ.
- When we sin God does not see that sin but all he sees is Christ or his righteousness.
- Christ perfectly obeyed for us.
