God, by imputing sin to someone, does not make him to have sinned, but supposes him to have sinned, whether in himself or in another. For the imputation of sin is a judicial act of God, by which he declares someone to be guilty and worthy of penalty on account of sin, as was said from the beginning.

Latin

Deus imputando peccatum alicui, non facit ut peccaverit, sed supponit eum peccavisse, sive in se, sive in alio. Est enim imputatio peccati actus Dei iudicialis, quo declarat aliquem esse reum & dignum poena ob peccatum, ut ab initio dictum.
