The Westminster Larger Catechism

Q.70. What is justification?

A. Justification is the act of God’s free grace to sinners,[1] by which he pardons all their sins and accepts and looks on them as if they were righteous,[2] not because of anything worked in them or done by them[3] but because God imputes to them the perfect obedience and full satisfaction of Christ[4] that can only be appropriated by faith.[5]
