    When are God's Elect Justified?

    Imputation is satisfactory for the justification of God’s elect. Again in connection with Christs Suretyship undertaking that commenced from everlasting, the sins of His people were charged or imputed to Him.

    Another reason for eternal justification of Gods elect, which is connected to His Suretyship, and that is the non imputation of sin. God purposed not to punish sin in His Elect but in His Son, the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world Rev 13:8. His counsel to punish sin in His Son, who...

    Another reason for eternal justification of Gods elect is that before the world began, according to their being chosen in Christ, they were blessed [in Him] with all spiritual blessings, and justification is a spiritual blessing. Eph 1:3-4 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus...

    Another reason for eternal justification of Gods elect, which is closely akin to His being Mediator, is that He was also made I believe to be a Surety for Gods Elect before the foundation Heb 7:22 22 By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament. That belter testament or covenant is...

    When are God's Elect Justified?

    2. Justification is the object, and faith is the act, which is conversant with it. Now the object does not depend upon the act, but the act upon the object.

    Exactly what is the timing of Justification? When is one for whom Christ died Justified before God?

    So the elect from amongst the jews and gentiles, for their unbelief, they obtain mercy Rom 11:30-32 30 For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief: 31 Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain...

    Grace Does Not Cover Unbelief

    God has mercy on some for their unbelief. In Rom 11 its seen that some Gentiles received mercy even in unbelief Rom 11:30-31 30 For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief: And some jews who are in unbelief obtain mercy as well: 31 Even so...

    Grace Does Not Cover Unbelief

    See if Christ didn't die for us to deliver us from unbelief, then it would be no hope and no faith in Christ since by nature all of us as sinners are shut up unto unbelief Rom 11:32 32 For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy upon all. For God hath shut up all...
