GOD IMPUTES RIGHTEOUSNESS to BELIEVERS in CHRIST

“For what does the Scripture say? ‘Abraham BELIEVED GOD, and it [his faith] was accounted to him for RIGHTEOUSNESS.’ Now to him who works, the wages are not counted as grace but as debt. But to him who does not work but BELIEVES on HIM who JUSTIFIES the ungodly, His FAITH is ACCOUNTED for RIGHTEOUSNESS.

BLESSED is the one to whom the LORD shall NOT IMPUTE SIN.

Now it was not written for his [Abraham’s] sake alone that it was imputed to him, but also for us. It [RIGHTEOUSNESS] shall be IMPUTED to us, who BELIEVE in HIM who raised up JESUS our LORD from the dead, who was delivered up because of OUR OFFENCES, and was raised because of OUR JUSTIFICATION.” [1]

Hallelujah! Salvation is guaranteed to BELIEVERS in CHRIST. HIS righteousness is imputed to us by GOD. JESUS CHRIST is the LAMB of GOD who takes away the sin of the world.

[1] Romans 4:3-5, 8, 23-25
