Romans 8:38: For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Romans 8:39: Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
The ministry of reconciliation and justification is the heart of Paul's gospel, and this Ministry of Reconciliation is for us believer-saints and sons of God — is a most priceless gift - and a much more noble responsibility than simply performing as an Old Testament priest or anyone who tries to copy this Jewish priesthood. This present glory - reconciliation and justification and ambassadorship - is much more glorious. We are no longer priests, but saints and Ambassadors, and this is far more glorious than the priesthood:
II Corinthians 3:9: For if the ministration of condemnation be glory, much more doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory. II Corinthians 3:10: For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth. II Corinthians 3:11: For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is glorious.
ANY ONE who believes the above Bible truth will be guaranteed eternal salvation with the Lord Jesus Christ, and no man or earthly leader can separate us from the love of God who give us these things freely.
God covers your sin with the righteousness of Christ, imputing to you Christ’s righteousness in His declaration of His justification.
>>What verse in scripture explicitly says what you wrote?
The idea of imputation is derived from late medieval secular philosophy rather than from the Bible.

Imputed righteousness would have been a foreign concept to the earliest Christians.
