How is it possible that I should be justified by good works, when I can do no good works at all, before I be first justified! My works cannot be accepted as good until my person be so.
— William Beveridge (1638-1707)
Justification is the pillar of Christianity. An error about justification is dangerous, like a defect in a foundation. Justification by Christ is a spring of the water of life. To have the poison of corrupt doctrine cast into this spring is damnable.
— Thomas Watson
We are saved by hope and faith, but justified by faith alone.
— William Perkins
There is something inexpressibly pleasing to a justified mind to know that God has all the honor in our salvation, and we have none; to know that God’s honor is not violated, but on the contrary, shines more illustrious; to know that God’s law is not injured, but magnified and made honorable, to know that we are safe, and God has all the glory.
— Robert Murray M’Cheyne
