Justified: Recovering the Heart of the Good News
2019 Cheyenne Reformation Conference
October 11 & 12, 2019
Featuring: Dr. Michael Horton
It is wonderful to know that we are forgiven. Yet it’s even more amazing to hear that we are justified: that is, accepted by God not only as “not guilty” but as if we had completely fulfilled his law. We explore the “great exchange”—our rags for Christ’s righteousness—and learn how to respond to criticisms of this glorious truth.
