@Stranger,
Since you are misrepresenting me in so many ways; and because I also believe that I need to at this point believe that all of my own righteousnesses are as filthy rags (in spite of Revelation 19:8 (kjv)): I am not going to continue this conversation with you.
I bow out.
I do not say that I am convinced of your pov; but I am not going to argue against it any further.
I will continue to believe what the scripture says in 1 John 3:7, Romans 5:19, and Matthew 5:6.
I believe that the apostles used great plainness of speech in what they wrote (2 Corinthians 3:12 (kjv)); and it is clear to me that the verses referenced above speak of imparted and practical righteousness; while they also are not in denial of imputed righteousness.
Since you yourself admit that the doctrine of sanctification is not negated by imputation, I'm not certain what your beef is.
Because all I'm saying is that sanctification comes as the result of imputation.
In imputation God declares the ungodly person to be righteous (Romans 4:5); and it is impossible for God to lie (Hebrews 6:18, Titus 1:2). So God calls those things which be not as though they are, thus creating a new reality (Romans 4:17) of that which He has declared; that the person who was one moment before ungodly, is now righteous...in reality...and this means, in the practical and in the imparted sense.
Through the obedience of one shall many be
made righteous (Romans 5:19).
Those who hunger and thirst after righteousness will be
filled (Matthew 5:6).
Those who
do righteousness are righteous
even as He is righteous (1 John 3:7).
