So you don't agree with Episkopos regarding imputed righteousness? I wonder you have never refuted him on that......it is very important foundational doctrine.
You want God's righteousness imputed to you. But only God is as righteous as God. God would never consider us to be as righteous as He is. God would never impute His power to us. God would never attribute to us a level of holiness that He possesses.

God doesn't inspect us and declare we are as righteous as He is. Quite the opposite. He sees that we are depraved without Him.

The fact that you don't know that means you are building on an ENTIRELY different foundation than Christ. And even if you did, giving you the benefit of the doubt, it would be wood, hay and stubble.

The truth is that those who enter INTO Christ are COVERED with God's righteousness. Which is unknown among those who name and claim based on bible reading. Otherwise God imputes righteousness....to the righteous. To those who DO righteousness and obey His laws. God also imputes iniquity to those who do iniquity and are lawless. Blessed is he who departs from iniquity, so that he no longer can have iniquity imputed (attributed) to him/her.

This whole narrative is fully misunderstood.
