The Doctrine of Justification By The Righteousness Of Christ, Stated And Maintained

Summary

The sermon explains the doctrine of justification by the righteousness of Christ, distinguishing justification from pardon and sanctification. It emphasizes that justification is a forensic act by which God declares sinners righteous based on the imputed active and passive obedience of Christ. The speaker highlights the roles of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in justification and refutes the idea that human obedience or faith as an act justifies. The righteousness of Christ, including His perfect obedience and sacrificial death, is the sole basis for justification and the believer's title to eternal life.
