Book Description
In this volume the preacher moves step by step through the massive reasoning of the Apostle Paul on atonement and justification, yet the detail of the exposition does not stand in the way of a clear view of the whole, and the reader is constantly shown how every section fits in the theme of God’s complete plan of salvation.

Preface | xi | |
1 | Laying the Foundation | 1 |
Statement on main theme, justification - ungodliness and unrighteousness - God's wrath on Jews and Gentiles - every mouth stopped - the function of the Law | ||
2 | The Great Turning Point - 'But Now' | 23 |
The only way of salvation - 'but now' in our experience and in history - analysis of verses 21-31 - the gospel of God - the Old Testament preparation | ||
3 | More Than Forgiveness | 39 |
The vital historic event of Christ's coming - a positive righteousness - not by lawkeeping, but by faith - earned by Christ - the universal need | ||
4 | By Free Grace Alone | 54 |
The centrality of justification - free grace - the ransom price and the slavery of sin - taught by Christ and the other apostles also | ||
5 | Propitiation | 65 |
The essential doctrine of the atonement - the meaning of 'propitiation' modern translations and denials of this - 'wrath', the vital issue - deliverance provided by the offended party | ||
6 | The Blood of Jesus Christ | 81 |
Another essential word - hated and misunderstood - true and false interpretations - the sacrificial death - the substitute - the new covenant | ||
7 | The Vindication of God | 95 |
The reconciliation of eternal love and eternal justice - remission and pretermission - previous forbearance - sin actually seen to be punished - the cross declaring God's love and justice | ||
8 | Boasting Excluded | 109 |
Necessity for argument, especially polemic - first deduction from the gospel boasting is excluded - faith not a work - Paul and James | ||
9 | Distinctions Abolished | 126 |
Second deduction - no difference between Jews and Gentiles in the way of salvation - 'by' and 'through' - no compromise with other religions - the gospel the only basis of fellowship | ||
10 | The Law Established | 139 |
Third deduction - meaning of 'law' - erroneous views rejected , seven ways in which the gospel, especially the cross, honours the law. Conclusion of Chapter three - reasons for modern rejection of this teaching | ||
11 | Abraham Justified – Faith | 154 |
Objection concerning the case of Abraham - one covenant of grace in all ages - Abraham could not boast - exposition of Genesis 11:16 - meaning of 'faith' and 'impute' | ||
12 | Justifying the Ungodly | 169 |
Grace and debt - justifying the ungodly - the robe of righteousness - David's experience in Psalm 32 - salvation entirely in God's hands - the acid test | ||
13 | Faith Only | 182 |
Two further objections answered - faith and circumcision - the seal of justification - faith and the law - law and promise - 'the seed' | ||
14 | Salvation Guaranteed – Omnipotent Grace | 191 |
The nature of law is contrary to promise - grace and faith fit together - salvation for all the 'seed', whether Jews or Gentiles - salvation certain because it is by God's grace | ||
15 | The Nature of Faith | 207 |
An illustration of faith - the elements of real faith, in every application - the achievements of Abraham's faith - strengthened by faith | ||
16 | Faith Glorifying God | 220 |
Faith glorifies God in His being and attributes - weak faith is genuine faith - difference between knowledge and practice - faith and foolhardiness distinguished - the way to be strong in faith | ||
17 | Raised for our Justification | 231 |
Abraham's faith applied to us - God-centred faith - the significance of Christ's resurrection - how the resurrection justifies - practical application of the comparison with Abraham |

Tom R –
This is the single greatest volume on the grace of God I have read. I have given copies away to many whom I thought needed some clarity on the issue.
