God's Gift of Righteousness
The Bible reveals that God imputes His righteousness to the believer at the moment of salvation. The word imputation itself is an accounting term used both in the Old Testament and the New Testament (Gen 15:6; Psa 32:2; Rom 4:3-8; Gal 3:6). Biblically, there are three major imputations that relate to our standing before God. First is the imputation of Adam’s original sin to every member of the…

Deceived
Galatians 6:3For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself. SEVENTH DAY ADVENTISM This belief is not only Calvinistic, but also begs the question: what nation (singular) do they think they are citizens of, since there are Seventh Adventists from almost every nation under the sun? Probably the “new Israel” I would imagine, as they are under the impression…

Justified in God's Sight
At the moment of faith in Christ, God’s righteousness is gifted to the believer (Rom 5:17; cf. 2 Cor 5:21; Phil 3:9), and he is at once made right with God and declared just in His sight. Divine justification is not by human works at all, “for there is none righteous, not even one” (Rom 3:10), “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Rom 3:23).

The Righteousness of Faith
When Abraham was still called Abram, before he was circumcised, he received God’s blessing of imputed righteousness through faith. Romans 4:9-10 – Authorised Version Cometh this blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness. How was it THEN RECKONED? when he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision?…
