For centuries the Pauline doctrine of justification has been a classic point of interpretation and debate in Christian theology. And in recent years new facets and distinctions have shaped the debate. After an in-depth introduction, this volume focuses on five views of justification: traditional reformed, progressive reformed, new perspective, deification or theosis, and Roman Catholic.
