About this sermon

This sermon examines the doctrine of justification by faith alone through the lens of the Westminster Confession of Faith and key Reformation theology. It contrasts the Reformed view of forensic justification, where Christ's righteousness is imputed to the believer, with the Roman Catholic concept of infused righteousness and the Arminian emphasis on human cooperation. The central argument rests on the scriptural account of Abraham in Genesis 15:6, demonstrating that righteousness is counted as a gift received by faith rather than earned by works. The teaching clarifies that while faith is the sole instrument of justification, it is never alone in the life of the believer, as it inevitably produces the fruits of the Spirit and active love. This distinction preserves the purity of the gospel while affirming the transformative power of genuine faith.
