Michael Horton, Gavin Ortlund, and Jordan Cooper discuss justification by faith alone in Christ alone in this Sola Media (Sola Media) podcast: Justified by Faith and Works? Defending Sola Fide with Gavin Ortlund and Jordan B. Cooper (YouTube). Horton represents the Reformed perspective, Ortlund represents the confessional Baptist perspective, and Cooper represents the confessional Lutheran perspective. It is notable that on this vital issue of justification there is remarkable agreement among the three perspectives. That is what one would expect because justification was, as Horton puts it, “the heart of the Reformation”. These three scholars discuss not just the word justification but also the concept by whatever name it may be designated.

Am I justified in the old Protestant sense of the word? That is the question.

I highly recommend Michael Horton’s two volume work on Justification: Two-Volume Set (New Studies in Dogmatics) for those of us who want to focus in depth on this vital aspect of salvation at “the heart of the Reformation”.
