Why is not imputing sins important for Christians?
Answered in 1 source
Not imputing sins is crucial as it affirms our justification and acceptance before God through Christ.
The concept of God not imputing our sins to us is foundational for understanding our justification. As emphasized in 2 Corinthians 5:19, God’s decision to not count our trespasses against us highlights the depth of His grace and the completeness of Christ's atoning work. If God does not impute our sins, it means that we are fully accepted in Christ and can approach Him without fear of condemnation (Romans 8:1). This assurance transforms how Christians live; rather than despair over sin, they can live with confidence and joy, embodying a life of gratitude and obedience inspired by Christ’s love.
