<< Ummm... That's what I said.  ;-D  My contention was with the statement that
 JESUS' righteousness was imputed to us.  If this were true, then once His
 righteousness, His perfect righteousness that is above question was put in
 us, we would be forever perfect just like Him: We could not sin.  Like I
 said, that is the whole corner stone of the "once saved, always saved"
 heresy.  It goes like this: >>

Bro. Tim,        When is righteousness, His perfect righteousness is put in
us, we are only righteous in His eyes.  And we can always disqualify ourselves
for His righteousness. We don't necessarily believe in eternal imputation, are
once imputed always imputed. The Word of God says it something like this, that
when we repent of the evil that we have done that he does not remember our
sins against us, but when we sin then He does not remember our righteous
deeds. Not a direct quote, brother.  We never intended imputation to mean that
we could never sin again, and it has never meant to us, once saved always
saved is heresy.
