What does the Bible say about righteousness imputed?
Answered in 2 sources
The Bible teaches that righteousness is imputed to believers by faith, as seen in Romans 4, where Abraham believed God and it was counted to him for righteousness.
Romans 4 clearly illustrates that righteousness is imputed to those who believe God. Abraham serves as a prime example; he believed God and was justified, not by his works, but by faith. The text emphasizes that righteousness is counted to those who do not work but believe in Him who justifies the ungodly. It also depicts the profound truth that this imputed righteousness comes without any works on our part, as stated by David, blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin (Romans 4:8). This shows that God's grace is foundational to our justification.
