Justification

Mark Husbands and Daniel J. Treier gather notable evangelical scholars and teachers to address key questions from biblical, historical, theological and ecumenical perspectives. Key questions addressed include: Does the doctrine of imputation of Christ's righteousness need to be rethought, or does it faithfully reflect biblical teaching? How should the faith and transformation of the believer be understood in connection with our justification? What is the connection between our union with Christ and justification? What can we learn from Lutheran, Wesleyan and Anglican perspectives on justification? What does the Lutheran-Catholic Joint Declaration of 1999 contribute to current ecumenical discussions, and what prospects are there for real theological and ecclesiological reconciliation?
