Imputation of Righteousness, July, 1998

Summary

The sermon explores the doctrine of imputation of righteousness, emphasizing that righteousness and justification come solely by God's grace through faith, not by works. Using Abraham as the primary example, the preacher explains that Abraham's faith was credited as righteousness before the law and circumcision, illustrating that salvation is by faith alone. The message highlights the blessedness of those whose sins are forgiven and covered by God, and stresses the importance of faith as a gift from God that assures believers of their righteousness in Christ. The preacher also touches on the reconciliation through Christ and the believer's joint inheritance with Him.
