Justification: Audio Lectures

24 Lessons on Biblical Exposition and Its Doctrinal Implications

De: Michael Horton

The doctrine of justification stands at the center of our systematic reflection on the meaning of salvation as well as our piety, mission, and life together. In Justification: Audio Lectures, Michael Horton seeks not simply to repeat noble doctrinal formulas and traditional proof texts, but to encounter anew the remarkable biblical justification texts in conversation with the provocative proposals that, despite a wide range of differences, have reignited contemporary debates around justification.

Lessons in Justification: Audio Lectures engage in historical theology, exploring the doctrine of justification from the patristic era to the Reformation. Broadening the scope, Horton also investigates the biblical doctrine of justification in light of contemporary exegesis. Horton shows that the doctrine of justification finds its most ecumenically-significant starting point and proper habitat in union with Christ, where the greatest consensus, past and present, is to be found among Orthodox, Roman Catholic, and Protestant theologies. At the same time, he proposes that the union with Christ motif achieves its clearest and most consistent articulation in forensic justification.

Justification: Audio Lectures is accompanied by Justification volumes one and two and is part of the Zondervan Beyond the Basics Video Series, which is dedicated to bringing expert teaching from world's best biblical scholars and theologians directly to interested learners.
