We cannot over-emphasize the importance of the doctrine of justification, for every follower of Christ needs a strong understanding of this biblical teaching. But justification is not the end of the gospel. In fact, it may not even be the greatest truth in the gospel. The doctrine of justification makes us right before God the judge, but in the doctrine of adoption we are loved by God the Father.

Fruitful Grace
