Chapter XXXIV: Part VIII: Eschatology, or the Doctrine of Final Things (10)

Justification, involved in union with Christ, 805
the doctrine of, 849‐868
defined, 849
declarative and judicial, 849
held as sovereign by Arminians, 849, 855
Scriptural proof of, 849, 850
its nature determined by Scriptural use of ’justify’ and its
derivatives, 850‐854
James and Paul on, 851
includes remission of punishment, 854‐856
a declaration that the sinner is just or free from condemnation of law,
854
is pardon or forgiveness as God is regarded as judge or father, 855
is on the ground of union with Christ who has borne the penalty, 855
includes restoration to favor, 856
since it treats the sinner as personally righteous it must give him the
rewards of obedience, 856
is reconciliation or adoption as God is regarded as friend or father,
857
this restoration rests solely on the righteousness of Christ to whom
sinner is united by faith, 858
its difficult feature stated, 859
believed on testimony of Scripture, 860
the difficulty in, relieved by three considerations, 860
is granted to a sinner in whose stead Christ has borne penalty, 860
is bestowed on one who is so united to Christ as to have Christ’s life
dominating his being, 860
is declared of one in whom the present Christ life will infallibly
extirpate all remaining depravity, 860
its ground is not the infusion into us of righteousness and love (Romish
view), 861
its ground is not the essential righteousness of Christ become the
sinner’s by faith, (Osiander) 861
its ground is the satisfaction and obedience of Christ the head of a new
humanity of which believers are members, 861
is ours, not because Christ is in us, but because we are in Christ, 862
its relation to regeneration and sanctification delivers it from
externality and immorality, 862, 863
and sanctification, not different stages of same process, 863
a declarative, as distinguished from the efficient acts of God’s grace,
regeneration and sanctification, 863
gifts and graces accompaniments, not consequences of, 864
why “by faith” rather than other graces?, 864
produced efficiently by grace, meritoriously by Christ, instrumentally
by faith, evidentially by works, 865
as being complete at the moment of believing, is the ground of peace,
865
is instantaneous, complete and final, 867
not eternal in the past, 867
in, God grants actual pardon for past sin, and virtual pardon for future
sin, 867
cannot be secured by future obedience, 868
must be secured by accepting Christ and manifesting trust and submission
by prompt obedience, 868

grounds, 486
