Jesus Blood And Righteousness

The question of whether Paul teaches that Christ's righteousness is imputed to the believer has been debated for roughly four hundred years. Some of the questions that arise are: What is the connection between Adam and the rest of the human race? How did Christ fulfill the role of the second or new Adam? How can the "ungodly" stand before a righteous God? In Jesus' Blood and Righteousness, Brian Vickers investigates the key Pauline texts linked historically to the topic of imputation. Though Vickers spends a good deal of time on the particulars of each text, he keeps one eye on the broader biblical horizon; like any doctrine, imputation must be investigated exegetically and synthetically. This book, and its conclusion that the imputation of Christ's righteousness is a legitimate and necessary synthesis of Paul's teaching, is a valuable contribution to the ongoing debate on imputation.

Christians have been ever prompted to the higher life by the spirit of God. All who are justified freely by His grace will walk no more after the lusts of flesh. Why is this so? The Spirit that kept Jesus is now in them. They now possess an unselfish spirit through faith in the merits of Christ and seek to separate from sin and self-will. He who gave His life knows how to impart it to us. Many realize justification by faith must involve more than cleansing of a record. Surely, the power to justify a lost sinenr must also contain power to transform the life. A heart yearning to be like Jesus must be part of the gospel. Does the word of God say anything about purging the conscience, freedom from condemnation of the law, victory over sin, death, and devil? Yes, much so. In only one way does the Biblical experience come - the precious blood of Christ applied. The power that avails in heaven with the Father, has conquered the devil, justifies the sinner, and gives victory in the life, is the BLOOD. It is hoped repetition of the instruction concerning the blood will give comfort and direction to His saints.

In this important study Hays argues against the mainstream that any attempt to account for the nature and method of Paul's theological language must first reckon with the centrality of narrative elements in his thought. Through an in-depth investigation of Galatians 3:1-4:11, Hays shows that the framework of Paul's thought is neither a system of doctrines nor his personal religious experience but the "sacred story" of Jesus Christ.
