In depth details of Substitution and Imputation Substitution and Imputation are two foundational principles and practical aspects of your Christian walk. Clear explanations of the vital reason and importance of each is below. Unless you understand the reasons God has enacted both concepts, you will not incorporate, implement or “utilize” them in your faith walk with the Lord God Almighty, and your walk will be less effective for yourself and the Kingdom of God.

The condition of mankind can be viewed at World Violence . 4- God’s solution for man’s self destruction is to personally rescue every individual person.
