- BEZA, THEODORE 1519-1605
"Faith & Justification"
"But, in this treatise, we shall especially consider the effects which He [the Holy Spirit] produces
in the children of God; how, along with faith, He brings to them the graces of God to make them
sensible of the efficacy and power of them (Rom 8:12-17; 1 Cor. 2:11,12; 1 John 4:13); in brief,
how He brings them more and more to the end and goal to. which they have been predestinated
before the foundation of the world (Eph. 1:3-4)."
- CALVIN, JOHN 1509-1564
"Of Justification By Faith"
"A man is said to be justified in the sight of God when in the judgment of God he is deemed
righteous, and is accepted on account of his righteousness; for as iniquity is abominable to God,
so neither can the sinner find grace in his sight, so far as he is and so long as he is regarded as a
sinner."
- EDWARDS, JONATHAN 1703-1758
"Justification By Faith Alone"
"We are justified only by faith in Christ, and not by any manner of goodness of our own."
- KUYPER, ABRAHAM 1837-1920
"Justification"
"And not only is this so strongly emphasized by Scripture, but it was also the very kernel of the
Reformation, which puts this doctrine of "justification by faith" boldly and clearly in
opposition to the "meritorious works of Rome." "Justification by faith"
was in those days the shibboleth of the heroes of faith, Martin Luther in the van" [front of the
battle].

KUYPER, ABRAHAM 1837-1920
"Sanctification And Justification"
Sermon 1 - Sanctification
Sermon 2 - Sanctification And Justification
"Care must be taken not to confound sanctification with justification; a common mistake,
frequently made by thoughtless Scripture readers. Hence the importance of a thorough
understanding of this difference. Being left unnoticed, it may lead to confused preaching, which
causes one-sidedness; and active and thoughtful men invariably systematize their one-
sidedness."

TURRETIN, FRANCIS 1623-1687
"On Justification"
"Is the word Justification always used in a forensic sense in this
argument, or also in a moral and physical? The former we affirm,
the latter we deny, against the Romanists."
URSINUS, ZACHARIAS 1534-1583
"The Doctrine Of Justification"
"The doctrine of justification, which now follows, is one of the chief articles of our faith, not only
because it treats of those things which are fundamental, but also because it is most frequently
called in question by heretics. The controversies between the church and heretics have respect
principally to two points: the one is concerning God, and the other concerning the justification of
man in the sight of God. And such is the importance of these doctrines that if either one of them
be overthrown, other parts of our faith easily fall to pieces."
