Well, yes, I know Christ died for all men. But that works only in God's plan of imputation. By one man we were made sinners. Thus by One Man we can be redeemed. (Rom. 5:12-21) But you reject both the imputation of sin with Adam and the imputation of righteousness with Christ. Thus you...

Avoiding my question is playing games. You fear the answer. Stranger

You reject salvation by faith alone. You hold to a works salvation. You reject the imputation of both sin and righteousness. You will stand before God in your righteousness. Good luck. Since you reject both the imputation of sin and righteousness, I have a question. Who did Christ die for...

No they didn't. There are Christians there, but the nations are not Christian. The Christian presence is no longer in those areas because of the rejection of the Gospel. You need to read all I have said here in this thread. Yes, Europe is turning away from Christ. But because she was...

But He didn't direct Paul to Ethiopia, or India, or China, etc. etc. Thus Africa is not a Christian nation, nor is India, nor is China etc. etc. Europe, of Japheth, the white man, became Christian. The credentials of the white race can only be the blessing of God upon them due to their...

Imputation of Christ's righteousness comes when one places faith in Christ. So, naturally, he is being obedient to the call to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. And at that point he is declared righteous because he is covered in the imputed righteousness of Christ. And that point will...

You can do righteously. You can do righteous things. But only in view of having Christ's imputed righteousness declared unto you. No matter how good your righteous deeds are here on earth, they will not get you to heaven. The declared righteousness is just that...declared. It is you...

The righteousness of the saints (Rev. 19:8) is the imputed righteousness of Christ. It is not the imparted righteousness, which you like for some reason. It is the imputed righteousness. Yes, even in eternity we shall always and only be righteous due to the imputed righteousness of Christ...

Sorry, don't need your approval. That is all you are talking about. Anyone who doesn't hold to the imputed righteousness of Jesus Christ, is promoting their own self-righteousness. You can't have it both ways. You can't get past that we are not talking about ones sins. We are talking...

By faith we have the righteousness of Christ imputed to us. It is not the righteousness of faith, it is the righteousness of Christ. Thus it exceedes the righteousness of the Pharisees and Scribes. They stood in their own righteousness, that which was by the law. It is as filthy rags...

I say you are self-righteous because you promote your righteousness and not the imputed righteousness of Christ. I do look down on you and what your are trying to promote. I despise it and you. You should not think your righteousness saves you, period. Therein lies your problem. Your...

I'm offering your Scripture. You offer nothing but your self-righteous opinion. Why? God does make people righteous. Through imputed righteousness. That is obtained when one places faith in Christ. The believer stands in the righteousness of Christ alone. You can go ahead and dress...

And (Philippians 3:9) speaks to imputed righteousness. Stranger

No, it doesn't say 'their' like a certain group. It says, "we are all". My how you pervert the Scriptures. Paul later affirms the same. (Rom. 3:9-20) And there is no 'pretend' in our righteousness. It is our righteousness. It is the good things we do. It is us obeying the Law. It is...

I suggest you read it. "But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away." Now, go stand before God with those filthy rags covering you and then be surprised at the response...

You don't have to like imputed righteousness. But it is the way it is. Scripture is clear as many have pointed out. The only reason anyone denies it, is because it grates against their self-righteousness. If you want to stand before God in your own righteousness, go ahead. God can...

People oppose imputed righteousness because it makes them feel good to be accepted by God for their good works. They want to earn it. They want to deserve it. God has no problem dealing with your sins. He has no provision for your righteousness. Does any really want to stand before God...

You still haven't answered my question. Why are you righteous? Stranger

That you have received it, that it is imputed to you, means it is not yours. It is yours by declaration, by imputation. It doesn't originate with you. Does that bother you?....that God does not find your righteousness good enough? I asked you what your righteousness really looks like and you...

If it is Christ's, then how is it yours. That you have been covered by it, yes. That it is yours...why? What is your righteousness really look like? Stranger
