I am one “unnaturally born” into Christianity – and although I do attend a specific church, at heart I am neither a Catholic nor a Protestant. I am a Christian who burns for the glory of the Lord, driven by the Holy Spirit to proclaim the Gospel of the Grace of the Lord Jesus Christ in love, and search out truth to teach others so that they, too, may be saved and grow in their knowledge and understanding of the LORD, so as to worship and honor and serve and obey Him as we ought, all to the end of His glory.
Justification is by grace alone through faith alone in Jesus Christ alone.
This was the “battle cry” that led to the reformation and resultant fragmentation of the Christian church.
BUT NOW, I behold the “Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Justification” as another answerer posted a link to this for me to be enlightened:
