More Than a Verdict: Recovering the Life-Giving Power of Salvation
In many circles within the Reformed tradition today, there is a beautiful and necessary emphasis on the doctrine of justification by faith alone. Rightly so. It is the heart of the gospel—that sinners are declared righteous before God solely on the basis of Christ’s perfect righteousness, imputed to us and received by faith. This is our peace, our assurance, our hope. Without it, we have nothing. But with it, we must remember: justification is not the whole of salvation.
