Justification by Faith

JUSTIFICATION by faith is not a doctrine, it is an act. It rests entirely upon belief; not belief in a historical statement about Christ, but in the personality of Christ, in Jesus Christ as the Second Person of the Trinity, in Jesus Christ the Second Person of God, in whom the power of the godhead rests. That is the reason salvation rests exclusively upon belief, not upon works, not upon baptism, but upon belief in Jesus Christ, the living, throbbing, pulsating Son of God, the personality of God manifested in Christ, who is God, the embodiment of the personality of the godhead.”—Mark A. Matthews.
