The TRUE meaning of biblical Justification

[JesusFan]

Some her to see it as if we are all commended to death, but once we ask the Judge to forgive us, he can just pardon us period, but the truth is someone still has to serve and fulfill that death penalty, same way Jesus died in our place and our stead

 

[Eternally Grateful]

the biblical term literally means found in right standing, or found innocent.

It is a judicial term.

We were justified by the redemption found in Christ Jesus..

 

[canadyjd]

As with the all words, it has meaning the context in which it is used.

Justification, as Paul uses the word in Romans and EG rightly stated, is used as a legal term of being found not guilty.

James, otoh, uses the word justification to mean “validation”. You are justified (validated) by your works and faith w/o works is dead.

Peace to you
