Justification by Faith Alone

These texts were composed by three giants of the Reformed tradition—Theodore Beza (1519–1605), Amandus Polanus (1561–1610), and Francis Turretin (1623–87). They represent three genres in classical defenses of the same doctrine, justification by faith alone. Beza’s is polemical in response to ecclesiastical controversy. Polanus’ is systematic, the fruit of logical argumentation based on Scripture. Turretin is exegetical, in the form of academic disputation. Together they illuminate important theological concerns such as the nature of faith, good works, sanctification, union with Christ, the Holy Spirit, hermeneutics, and the unity of Scripture, and are here published in English for the first time.
