I plan to use this illustration tonight with my catechism students: Starr Meade has an excellent illustration that explains the imputation of Christ’s active and passive obedience, his obedience to the law and his suffering obedience. This goes to the basis of our justification. Our sins are imputed or accounted to Christ, and his righteousness is imputed or accounted to us. Included in justification is the crucial notion of imputation. Lord’s Day 23 deals with justification, God’s declaration that we are right with him on account of Christ’s righteousness. Tonight at our church catechism class, I have the joy of teaching Lord’s Day 23 again. In fact, we’re on our second copy of it - the first one just fell apart after some years of heavy daily use. To catechize our children during family worship, we’ve been using Training Hearts, Teaching Minds for many years. I love Starr Meade’s book of family devotions based on the Westminster Shorter Catechism. ![]()
