"قداسة المسيح وطاعته الكاملة أُحتسبت للمؤمنين."

Jonathan Edwards

Simplified Meaning:

The quote means that, in Christian belief, Jesus Christ was completely holy and always followed God's rules perfectly. When people believe in Jesus, it's like they get credit for his goodness and perfect behavior. Imagine a student who always gets perfect grades in school. If that student shares their perfect grades with other students who haven't done as well, those students now benefit as if they got those perfect grades themselves. This belief gives Christians comfort because it means they are seen as good and righteous in God's eyes through Jesus. They don't have to be perfect on their own because they have accepted Jesus’s perfection on their behalf. For someone trying to live by this idea, it can mean focusing more on faith and trust in Jesus rather than worrying about being perfect all the time.
