Chapter Eleven: Justification

Section

11.3

: Footnotes and Supportive Scripture

Christ, by his obedience and death, fully discharged the debt of all those who are justified, and by the sacrifice of himself through the blood of his cross, underwent instead of them the penalty due to them, so making a proper, real, and full satisfaction to God’s justice on their behalf.  Yet because he was given by the Father for them, and because his obedience and satisfaction were accepted instead of theirs (and both freely, not because of anything in them), therefore they are justified entirely and solely by free grace, so that both the exact justice and the rich grace of God might be glorified in the justification of sinners.
