Theological Papers
This past year I have taken two classes at Erskine Seminary and written two papers. One has to do with the doctrine of Justification and the other deals with B. B. Warfield's doctrine of the inspiration and inerrancy of Scripture.

Justification Test
I can't remember where I got this, but it is worth going through to think about this important matter of justification.
Justification Test
1. According to Romans 8:30, whom does God justify?
2. God justifies:
a. the godly
b. the ungodly
c. the sincere
(Read Romans 4:5 after you circle your answer!)
3. What two things does God do in justification? (pick two)
a. infuses righteousness into us
b. pardons our sins
c. credits our faith as merit
d. imputes Christ's righteousness to our account
e. causes us to be born again
f. gives us grace to do works to gain it
(See Ephesians 1:7; Jeremiah 23:6; Romans 3:21-22; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Philippians 3:9)
4. The righteousness of Christ consisted of:
a. His baptism
b. His death on the cross
c. His obedience to the law
d. His devotion to prayer
e. going to the temple to offer sacrifices
f. all of the above
(See Romans 5:19)
5. Justification by faith means that:
a. our faith deserves to be rewarded
b. by faith we do what God commands
c. we believe we were worth saving
d. by faith we receive the grace to work out our salvation
e. by faith we receive and rest on Christ and His righteousness alone
(See John 1:12; Romans 3:28)
6. Circle all that are true statements about faith:
a. you either have faith or works in your life
b. faith is the only instrument of justification
c. faith is a necessary condition of justification
d. faith is given to all people, but only some choose to believe
e. faith must be strong to be saving
f. faith is a gift, not a condition
g. faith is assent to the truth
(See Ephesians 2:8-10)
7. If we are Justified by faith alone, it means that:
a. we may sin as we please
b. we may never sin again
c. we may sin some as long as we ask forgiveness later
d. we must grow in holiness
(2 Corinthians 7:1)
