Imputed Righteousness (Edgar J. Dye)

The cry is heard, "We need more preaching about grace!" I have been through three cycles of that demonstration in my life time and we are in the midst of a fourth. Thing is, this controversy has been raging since the time of Augustine and Pelagius.

About forty years ago, error was being taught concerning Romans 4:11 and related texts. Just recently, a brother has argued in his blog and the pulpit of the local church of which he is a servant: "On the cross, God saw our sins in Jesus and inflicted our deserved punishment on Him. Consequently, when God looks at those embracing His grace, He sees Jesus' righteousness. This divine exchange grants us the assurance of salvation, ensuring we will receive what Jesus is accomplishing, both now and at the final judgment."

This audio sermon to which you are about to listen was preached by Edgar J. Dye 40 years ago. In it he addresses what the Bible says and means by the phrase imputed righteousness. He also answers the error then preached, and through the marvel of modern technology, which is now being promoted. I hope you will listen and study.
