What is the relationship between imputation and justification?

Answered in 1 source

Imputation is the means by which justification occurs, with righteousness credited to the believer's account.

The relationship between imputation and justification is foundational in Reformed theology. Justification is the legal declaration by God that a sinner is righteous based on the righteousness of Christ being imputed to them. Imputation involves God attributing Christ's righteousness to the believer, while simultaneously not considering their sins as they are imputed to Christ. This integral connection assures believers that they are justified solely by faith and not by any works.
