The Nature of Justification
Justification Once for All
Justification · 5 verses
Justification occurs at the moment of faith and is complete, perfect, and irreversible. The believer is not partially justified or progressively justified but fully justified the instant he believes. This verdict cannot be overturned, for it rests on the finished work of Christ and the immutable decree of God.
