Justification By Faith End Of History
2,453 words[Course Title] The Christian Faith - Justification The classical Christian insight is captured (but also obscured, as is the fate with all slogans) in the doctrine of "justification by faith.

Possibly that is the case with "justification by faith, " as significant theologians like Paul Tillich have argued. (Tillich 227) The theological presupposition of the notion of justifi...
