Basic Theology: Imputation - Conclusion

Imputation

Conclusion


How then shall we live our lives?

We were slaves to sin because of the fall of Adam. Now we are no longer slave to sin, but we are the righteousness of God.

The Holy Spirit produces through us God’s righteousness.
Ephesians 2:10, “We are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them

The imputed righteousness becomes the basis for righteousness imparted through us by the Holy Spirit.

Imputation is the firm foundation upon which we are justified by grace through faith.

    1. The sin of Adam is imputed to all his descendants, i.e., it is reckoned as theirs, and they are dealt with therefore as guilty.
    2. Our sins are imputed to Christ, i.e., he assumed our “law-place,” undertook to answer the demands of justice for our sins.
    3. The righteousness of Christ is imputed to those who believe, and they become the righteousness of God.
