A defence of the doctrine of justification, by faith in Jesus Christ
A defence of the doctrine of justification, by faith in Jesus Christ: showing, true Gospel-holiness flows from thence. Or, Mr. Fowler's pretended design of Christianity, proved to be nothing more then to trample under foot the blood of the Son of God and the idolizing of man's own righteousness. As also, how while he pretends to be a minister of the Church of England, he overthroweth the wholesome doctrine contained in the 10th. 11th. and 13th. of the Thirty Nine Articles of the same, and that he falleth in with the Quaker, and Romanist, against them. By John Bunyan.A defence of the doctrine of justification, by faith in Jesus Christ: shewing, true Gospel-holiness flows from thence.

Pen, Pag. 27. Justification doth not go before, but is subsequential to the Mortification of Lusts.
Fowler, Pag. 14, 15. This Blessing of making Men Holy, was so much the design of Christ's coming, that he had his very Name from it; Observe the Words; He shall save his People from their Sins; not from the punishment of them, &c. And that is the Primary sense of them which is most plainly expressed in them; That he shall save his People from the punishment of Sin, is a true sense too; but it is Secondary, and implied only, as this latter is the never failing, and necessary consequence of the former Salvation.
