God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

When we are united to Christ a mysterious exchange takes place: He took our curse, so that we may receive His blessing; He became sin with our sin, so that we may become righteous with His righteousness... On the one hand, God declined to 'impute' our sins to us, or 'count' them against us, with the implication that He imputed them to Christ instead. On the other, God has imputed Christ's righteousness to us... We ourselves have done nothing of what is imputed to us, nor Christ anything of what is imputed to Him... He voluntarily accepted liability for our sins.

John Stott

God’s ultimate goal for us, however, is that we be truly conformed to the likeness of His Son in our person as well as in our standing… Jesus did not die just to save us from the penalty of sin, nor even just to make us holy in our standing before God. He died to purify for Himself a people eager to obey Him, a people eager to be transformed into His likeness… This process of gradually conforming us to the likeness of Christ begins at the very moment of our salvation when the Holy Spirit comes to dwell within us and to actually give us a new life in Christ. We call this gradual process progressive sanctification, or growing in holiness, because it truly is a growth process.
