ART. II. Of the Justification of man before God.
We are justified, that is, we are accounted righteous before God, and have remission of sinsa, not for nor by our own works or deservingsb, but freely by his gracec, only for our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christs saked, his whole obedience and satisfaction being by God imputed unto use, ⟨p. 9⟩and Christ with his righteousness, being apprehended and rested on by faith onlyf. The Doctrine of Justification by Faith only, is an wholesome Doctrine, and very full of comfortg: notwithstanding God doth not forgive them that are impenitent, and go on still in their trespassesh.
