THE BIBLE DOES NOT TEACH AN INCOMPLETE IMPARTED RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH LEAVES A PERSON IN SIN AS LUKEWARM LAODICEAN RELIGIONS TEACH TODAY

The Bible says in Mattt. 7:17-20: 
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.

18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
We see here the bible does not teach of person manifesting unrighteousness and unrighteousness at the same time. At any given time a person either represents a good tree or a bad tree.
This is confirmed by 1 John 3:7
7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

1John 2:29 tells us how the person becomes righteous like Jesus to do righteousness.
1John 2:29
29 If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him.

That is they are born of God through spiritual rebirth.
So righteousness imparted by God is in sinfreeness. This would mean that imputed righteousness would have taken away all sin from the person. Examining the Greek word "logizomai" which is translated "imputed" or "counted" or "reckoned" one would understand the word means "to esteem, or count or consider in ones mind" so that imputation is an esteeming of righteousness by God to the penitent person. Now considering that imparted righteousness is a total giving of righteousness that leaves no sin in the person (sinfreeness) one could see that the esteeming or imputing of righteousness by God is simply the way how God gives or imparts righteousness to a person. That is God just as to think something to be a certain way and becomes that way, He esteems things into being.
Those that hold Laodicean religious views of an imparted Righteousness that is together with sin or in sin need to and must accept these third angel message truths otherwise they will remain Lukewarm and will be spewed out of the mouth of God in accordance with Revelation 3:14-16, I quote:
14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
You see the false idea of Imputed righteousness is one in which a person is righteous and unrighteous at the same time, thus Lukewarm, which is really an unconverted state in which one bares no good fruit, for one is yet a bad tree and all their righteousness is as filthy rags.
May God's Holy Spirit attend the thoughts of the reader that they may be truly saved by the true imputed righteousness of Christ which makes a person sinfree within like Christ. And I repeat:
1 John 3:7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

WHAT OUR INQUIRY ABOUT OURSELVES SHOULD BE?

WHAT OUR INQUIRY ABOUT OURSELVES  SHOULD BE? We are in the very last days, we are told that the last controversy will be very short. “We are standing on the threshold of great and solemn events. Prophecies are fulfilling. The last great conflict will be short, but terrible. Old controversies will be revived. New controversies will arise. We have a great work to do. Our ministerial work must not cease. The last warning must be given to the world. There is a special power in the presentation of the truth at the present time. How long will it last? Only a little while.” Ellen G. White, Selected Messages bk. 3, pg. 419. And in view of the lateness of time, what should be the inquiry of everyone? We are told: “The inquiry of everyone should be ‘whose am I? To whom do I owe allegiance? Is my heart renewed? Is my soul reformed? Are my sins forgiven? Will they be blotted out when the time of refreshing shall come?” Ibid, pg. 419. We must needs examine ourselves to see if we...

MRS WHITE QUOTES ON THE 1888 MESSAGE REJECTION

1. “The Lord in His great mercy sent a most precious message to His people through Elders Waggoner and Jones.” — TM p. 91. 2. “God gave to His servants a testimony that presented the truth as it is in Jesus, which is the third angel’s message, in clear distinct lines” — TM p. 93. 3. “The message of the gospel of His grace was to be given to the church in clear and distinct lines, that the world should no longer say that Seventh-Day Adventists talk the law, the law, but do not teach or believe Christ.

EGW QUOTE ON SINFUL NATURE

We are told that Jesus had our “sinful nature.” “He took upon Him our sinful nature.” Ellen G. White, Signs of the Times, 7/30/02. “In him was no guile nor sinfulness,….yet He took upon Him our sinful nature.” Ibid. From what we have just read, we see that the term “sinful nature” for Mrs. White does not mean that the person has sin for she says that Jesus was sinfree. But what does sinful nature mean that the person? A. It means human nature affected by sin not infected with  sin. B. It means human nature weakened by sin, but not resided by sin. C. This is the Mind, Emotions/Passions, Flesh and Experience weakened by sin, but not necessarily indwelt by sin. D. It is quite true that man’s sinful nature, a nature weakened by sin, in the average sinner may have sin in it. So sinful nature for the sinner in sin is a nature weakened by sin, but the man has sin in this nature. E. This means the man has sin in his Mind, Passions/Emotions, Experience, and sin in his flesh is sin in his Mi...
