What does it mean that we are justified by faith?

Answered in 1 source

Being justified by faith means that we are declared righteous before God through our belief in Christ.

Justification by faith is a foundational doctrine of the Reformed faith, articulated in Romans 5:1, which explains that we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. This doctrine teaches that it is through faith alone, apart from works, that God declares sinners righteous. Christ's perfect obedience and sacrificial death serve as the sole basis for our justification, emphasizing that our acceptance before God relies fully on His grace and not our merits.
