Justification: The Heart of the Christian Faith [DOWNLOAD]

This significant work, precipitated by the Lutheran-Roman Catholic Joint Declaration on the doctrine of justification, represents Eberhard Jüngel’s most sustained theological writing for some time. Jüngel examines the role of justification in Christian Faith—and emphasizes its central importance.

He traces the history of the concept of “justice” in Greek thought, and of the Old Testament parallel concept “righteousness.” He then moves to a consideration of the righteousness of God in its Christian context, and in particular to God’s righteousness in Christ. A major contribution to theological discussion is found in his fresh and fearless treatment of the unfashionable topic of sin.

Throughout the work, Jüngel constantly interacts with the great Catholic and Protestant thinkers, his skill as a theologian matched by his insight as a philosopher.

Praise for the Print Edition

It is a vintage piece of Jüngel in one of his most characteristic voices: intellectually vigorous, polemical… written with an eye not only to fundamental issues in dogmatics but also to pastoral questions of Christian existence and action.
—John Webster
