Please wake up!

That verse does not say that any righteousness can or will be “imputed” to anyone!

Our righteousness comes exactly as the apostles told us. His Torah absolutely must be written on our hearts.

When it is so written, we will find ourselves obeying all that is commanded of us.

If your hope is for anything else, it is written on the excrement that characterizes all that the human mind can imagine.

Just what do you think Isaiah was provided?

The covenant is solely with those that love Torah; Paul made that abundantly clear in Hebrews.

Yeshua also made it clear in Matthew 7:21-23

If you insist on being a “worker of iniquity” (without Torah) you will hear those words at the great white throne as Yeshua speaks them to you.

Just keep on imputing your own preferred interpretation (idios ipsalusos) to the words we are given with your churchian sound bites.

ME wake up??? Here was the post I responded to:

>> Metmom: “Our garment of righteousness is the righteousness of Jesus Christ imputed to us which is credited to our account when we believe.” <<

You: Nowhere is that absurd lie to be found on the word. That is a false gospel from the adversary.

I then showed you Scripture that stated we ARE clothed with the "garment of righteousness" from the Lord. So now you insist that righteousness being "imputed" to anyone is my own "idios ipsalusos" (whatever THAT means!) and that I am a “worker of iniquity”. So I offer the following passages that very specifically say that Christ's righteousness IS imputed to us just as much as it was to Abraham through faith from the start (they aren't even "churchian soundbites" either). You can choose to ignore them like you have been doing with most of the other verses provided to you and work your way to salvation - though it will be you and your fellow Roodians who will hear some scary words at the Great White Throne Judgment. You can call this "excrement" if you want, but that will only further your condemnation:

    You see that his faith was working with his actions, and his faith was perfected by what he did. And the Scripture was fulfilled that says, “- Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,” and he was called a friend of God. (James 2:22-23)

    What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, has found? For if Abraham were justified by works, he has whereof to glory; but not before God. For what said the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness. Now to him that works is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. But to him that works not, but believes on him that justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. Even as David also describes the blessedness of the man, to whom God imputes righteousness without works, Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.(Romans 4:1-8)

    Comes this blessedness then on the circumcision only, or on the uncircumcision also? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness. How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision. And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed to them also: And the father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had being yet uncircumcised. (Romans 4:9-12)

    For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith. For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect: Because the law works wrath: for where no law is, there is no transgression. Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all, (As it is written, I have made you a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who vivifies the dead, and calls those things which be not as though they were. Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall your seed be. And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah's womb: He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform. And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness. Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him; But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; Who was delivered for our offenses, and was raised again for our justification. (Romans 4:13-25)

    What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith. But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, has not attained to the law of righteousness. Why? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumbling stone. (Romans 9:30-32)

    But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ to all and on all them that believe: for there is no difference: For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God has set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believes in Jesus. Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? No: but by the law of faith. Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law. (Romans 3:21-28)

    1 Corinthians 1:30
    But by His doing you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption,

    2 Corinthians 5:21
    He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

    Romans 10:4
    For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.

    Romans 5:17
    For if by the transgression of the one, death reigned through the one, much more those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.

    Romans 4:5
    But to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited as righteousness,

    Romans 5:17
    For if by the transgression of the one, death reigned through the one, much more those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.

    Romans 4:5
    But to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited as righteousness,

It sure looks like Paul was writing especially for you! Some more: http://bible.knowing-jesus.com/words/Imputed
