Article IV: Of Justification.
Also they teach that men cannot be
justified before
God by their own
strength,
merits, or
works, but are freely justified for
Christ's sake, through
faith, when they believe that they are received into favor, and that their
sins are
forgiven for Christ's sake, who, by His
death, has made satisfaction for our sins. This faith God
imputes for
righteousness in His sight. Rom. 3 and 4.
