Quick takeaways

  • Justification is a once-and-for-all declaration that we are counted righteous for the sake of Christ alone, not a process based on our works or achievements.
  • Faith alone emphasizes that righteousness is obtained through trusting in Christ, apart from our own works or efforts, redirecting our attention to Him as the object of our faith and the one who accomplished our salvation.

Deep dives

Faith Alone: Trusting in Christ's Strength

Faith is not about questioning the enough faith question. It is about looking to Christ and relying on His strength. The strength of our faith does not save us, but the strength of Christ on whom we rely does. Trying to conjure up faith weakens it, while true faith is simply trusting in Christ's work for our salvation.
