What Man Ought to Believe Concerning God

What is justification?

Answer

Justification is an act of God's free grace, wherein he pardoneth all our sins (Romans 3:24-25; 4:6-8), and accepteth us as righteous in his sight (2 Corinthians 5:19,21), only for the righteousness of Christ imputed to us (Romans 5:17-19), and received by faith alone (Galatians 2:16; Philippians 3:9).
