God's impassibility is a quality of his aseity or divine fullness. Unlike us, God is not dependent upon anything outside himself for emotional fulfilment or satisfaction. Impassibility then, is not a defect in God. He is not emotionally stunted or remote. Rather he is perfectly fulfilled and...

Question: Are we justified on account of our faith? Justification is a declarative act in which God pronounces the sinner just or righteous, that is, declares that the claims of justice, so far as God is concerned, are satisfied, so that the sinner cannot be justly condemned, but is in...
