Faith Alone: Justified by Christ’s Righteousness

In this episode of Equipping You in Grace, Dave Jenkins continues the Reformation series, Standing Firm: Truths Worth Reforming For, by considering the doctrine of justification by faith alone. From Romans 3:21–28, we see the universal problem of sin, the gift of justification, the ground of justification in Christ's atoning work, the means of justification by faith alone, and the exclusion of boasting. This is the doctrine Martin Luther called "the article by which the church stands or falls." The Reformers risked everything to recover this truth: that sinners are justified by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. 🔑 Key Themes: • All have sinned and fall short of God's glory. • Justification is a gift of God's grace, not earned by works. • Christ's blood is the ground of our justification. • Faith alone unites us to Christ. • Boasting is excluded—salvation is all of grace. With insights from Luther, Calvin, Edwards, and Bunyan, this teaching highlights why justification by faith alone is the heart of the gospel, the comfort of believers, and the safeguard of the church.
