Imputed

Webster's dictionary defines 'impute' as 'to credit to a person or a cause.'

Among the great mass of professed Christians, the grievous character of the transgression of the law of God is not understood.  They do not realize that salvation can be obtained only through the blood of Christ, through His imputed righteousness, but this alone will avail to make fallen man what he should be, and exalt him to become a member of the Royal Family of heaven.

In justification, Christ's character is imputed (credited to the believer's account).  Thus his standing before God is changed.

I think this is explained pretty plain, don't you?  I am sure you want your standing before God to be 'just as if you had never sinned'.  I can't think of anything better than that, can you?  Grandma Joan
