The Threefold Cord: Or Justification By The Grace Of God, The Righteousness Of Christ, And The Faith Of Man (1845)

""The Threefold Cord: Or Justification By The Grace Of God, The Righteousness Of Christ, And The Faith Of Man"" is a book written by George Cole in 1845. The book explores the Christian doctrine of justification, which refers to the process by which a person is made right with God. Cole argues that there are three essential components to this process: the grace of God, the righteousness of Christ, and the faith of man.Cole begins by examining the concept of grace, which he defines as the unmerited favor of God. He then goes on to discuss the righteousness of Christ, which he believes is imputed to believers through faith. Finally, Cole explores the role of faith in the process of justification, arguing that it is necessary for a person to have faith in order to receive the benefits of God's grace and Christ's righteousness.Throughout the book, Cole draws on biblical passages and theological arguments to support his ideas. He also addresses various objections to his views and engages with other theologians who have written on the topic of justification.Overall, ""The Threefold Cord"" is a thoughtful and thorough exploration of the doctrine of justification. It offers a clear and compelling argument for the importance of grace, Christ's righteousness, and faith in the Christian life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
