Imputation of Righteousness by the faith of Jesus

Imputation of Righteousness by the faith of Jesus
When God imputes Righteousness to us we become Righteous within. For God imputing Righteousness to us is God giving Himself to us by imputation. Jer.23:5-6 tells us Yahweh is our Righteousness, that is the Righteousness of the Righteous is Yahweh Himself. This is due to the conscious indwelling of God in the heart as they consciously hold the faith/ the revealed truths in the heart. So God imputes Himself as RIghteousness to us through the faith - the revealed truths.
Impute (Gk logizomai) means to consider/esteem/ count. When God esteems or imputes something to be a certain way it becomes that way. When God counts or esteem Himself as part of our conscious experience it becomes that way in reality so we actually have an experience of the Love of God through the faith the revealed truths of Christ.
The following text shows we obtain Righteousness by the imputation of faith
Rom.4:3-6
3 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted (Gk. logizomai) unto him for righteousness.

(Note: Abraham believing God for Righteous is Abraham believing the reveal truths of God or the word of God for Righteousness, see Gen.15:3-6)
4 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned (Gk. logizomai) of grace, but of debt.
5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted (Gk. logizomai) for righteousness.
6 Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth (logizomai) righteousness without works,
Note: Impute does not mean to credit something to a place called an account like in banking. Impute simply means consider or to put things together in one's mind.
So the imputation of God's Righteousness actually gives you Righteousness. Hence the reason 1 John 3:7 tells us, "Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous." And 1John 2:29 tells us " If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him."
So my Dear facebook friends do meditate on these things with your bible and God will reveal the truth to you. Much love and peace in Jesus Holy name. Be truly Holy and Sinfree by the imputation of God's Righteousness through faith - the revealed truths in Jesus name. Amen.

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.

Summary Conclusion on the Righteousness of God

It is true to say that the Righteousness of God is the Law of God proper, it is equally true to say that it is Christ’s perfect obedience to the Law, for Christ is God, and all His historical obedience was righteousness. To claim that all God’s salvific administration towards sinful humanity is the Righteousness of God is to be on target, for so also do the scriptures speak. But what is the Righteousness of God that is imputed to us? What is the Righteousness of God that is given to us in Justification and is our salvation? It is none of the Righteousness of God we have referred to above. What we are looking for is a Righteousness of God that is without the Law, that is, a Righteousness of God that is APART FROM the Law of works, a Righteousness of God that is DIFFERENT to the Ten Commandments, this is the Righteousness of God that we are given in Faith for our Justification and salvation. The scriptures of the First and Second Witnesses speak of this unique Righteousness whi...
