“Esta é uma obra magnífica, maravilhosa em sua clareza, notável por seu tratamento fiel e minucioso dos textos bíblicos e poderosa na força de sua argumentação. A resposta simples e potente do Dr. Piper aos ataques recentes à compreensão protestante histórica da justificação pela fé irá curar uma multidão de doenças teológicas. Este é certamente um dos livros mais belos e mais importantes a serem publicados em muitos anos.” JOHN MACARTHUR, Pastor da Grace Community Church em Sun Valley, Califórnia. Presidente da Universidade The Master’s College.
“Esta é certamente a defesa mais sólida da justiça imputada de Cristo, desde a obra de John Murray, cinquenta anos atrás. Estou encantado que o Dr. Piper tenha estabelecido esta doutrina importante, não como um mero artigo da tradição confessional, mas no alicerce sólido da Palavra de Deus.” JOHN M. FRAME. Professor de Teologia Sistemática e Filosofia. Reformed Theological Seminary, em Orlando.
