How did Jesus put it on the cross? ... 'Paid in full'. A works based Christianity look-a-like asserting that Jesus did not pay it in full, an adherent has to paid part of the price FOR GRACE!

Of course there is no price we can pay to have the Righteousness of Christ. Before we are Saved or after we are born again. A man cannot reconcile himself to God. ONY God can reconcile a destitute sinner -with no righteousness- to God. GOD has chosen to do that act of Grace for EVERYONE who believes in Whom God sent to reconcile us to Himself.

HOWEVER, once we have had imputed to us (that's the only way we can get righteousness on God's scale) the righteousness of Christ o that GOD's seed ABIDES in us (1 JOhn 3:9), THEN GOD expects our participation in the sanctification process which He, God, desires for His children.

Too often folks flip flop the Justification phase with the sanctification phase. And often these same people will deny there is coming a moment when God will glorify His Justified ones -regardless of how sanctified they have become- and sntch us outta here.
