Overview

Believing that “justification by faith is not a theoretical dogma, but a great practical inquiry,” Paton J. Gloag wrote this treatise on justification for the general reader. Gloag defends the doctrine of justification by faith alone as the central doctrine of Protestantism, and addresses perversions of the doctrine that diminish it to a mere excuse for ungodliness. Gloag also frequently dialogues with the works on justification of his contemporaries—including John Henry Newman, Devenant, and Owen.
