The first of a two-volume project delving into the doctrine of
justification. Michael Horton seeks not simply to recover a clear
message of its role in modern Reformed theology, but also to bring
a fresh discovery of the gospel in a time when contemporary debates
around justification have reignited. The doctrine of justification
stands at the center of our systematic reflection on the meaning of
salvation and grace as well as our piety, mission, and life
together. And yet, within mainline Protestant and evangelical
theology, it's often taken for granted or left to gather dust in
favor of modern concerns and self-renewal. Volume 1 is an exercise
in historical theology, exploring the doctrine of justification
from the patristic era to the Reformation. This book: Provides a
map for contemporary discussions of justification, identifying and
engaging principal sources: Origen, Chrysostom, Augustine, Thomas
Aquinas, John Duns Scotus, William of Ockham, Gabriel Biel, and the
magisterial reformers. Studies the transformations of the doctrine
through Aquinas, Scotus and the nominalists leading up to the era
of the Reformation and the Council of Trent. Concludes by examining
the hermeneutical and theological significance of the Reformers'
understanding of the law and the gospel and the resultant
covenantal scheme that became formative in Reformed theology.
Engaging and thorough, Justification will not only reenergize the
reader-whether Protestant or Catholic-with a passion for
understanding this essential and long-running doctrinal
conversation, but also challenge anyone to engage critically with
the history of the Church and the heart of the gospel.
