Justification by Faith Alone

Justification follows the gift of faith (holy disposition, Php 1:29, 2 Pe 1:1, Ac 13:48, 18:27, Ro 12:3), which faith saves.

Faith --> salvation --> justification --> imputed righteousness (see post #393). . .all are God's work.
I know thats what you are saying, Justification b4 God is upon a holy disposition within man, and not exclusively upon the Holy dispositions in what Christ did in His Person and work.

And that holy disposition within man is exclusively the work of the Holy Spirit.

Are not justification and salvation intrinsically part of each other, or, at least, implicit of each other? Yet we don't say a person is saved before he is conceived. He is not saved "ever since" the cross, even though he was saved "at the cross" just like he was from before the foundation of the world. That the cross is central to the matter does not mean that there is a temporal measure there. Again, it is illogical to apply temporal principles to eternal fact.

Yeah however you still basing Justification b4 God on whats in you, and not exclusively what was done for u. The Holy Spirit didnt satisfy Gods Law and Justice. And He directs to Christ for that Glory Jn 16:13-14

13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

See Justification from sin is Christs exclusive work, thats what the Spirit shows to them Justified by Him

Justification b4 God is an eternal acts and fact b4 its a temporal reality passed upon the conscience of the Justified, Faith persuades of that Eternal Fact

So it boils down to God Justified you before His Law and Justice based upon goodness [faiths disposition] He saw in thee. Even though its the Spirits work in you, its your goodness in you Gal 5:22

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

Yes. How does that contradict or amend what I said?
