    Justification by faith is a ___________ declaration by Gad that those who believe are forgiven and righteous in His sight.

    • Conditional

    • Legal

    • Preliminary

    • Forensic

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Legal
    Explanation
    The term "legal" is the correct answer because it implies that justification by faith is a declaration made by God that is based on legal terms and principles. It suggests that through faith, believers are considered forgiven and righteous in the eyes of God, not because of their own actions or merit, but because of the legal declaration made by God. This concept of justification by faith being a legal declaration aligns with the biblical teachings on salvation and the role of faith in obtaining righteousness.

Capitulation refers to surrendering or giving in to someone or something, which is not a concept typically associated with the effects of the atonement.

    • The quality of the sacrifice was sufficient

    • The intensity of the punishment was enough

    • Because it was a representative of death

    • All of the above

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. All of the above
    Explanation
    The explanation for the given correct answer is that all of the above options are true. The quality of Jesus' sacrifice was sufficient to atone for mankind's sin because he was a sinless and perfect being. The intensity of the punishment he endured, including physical torture and crucifixion, was enough to pay the price for our sins. Additionally, Jesus' death represented the ultimate sacrifice and defeat of death itself, offering redemption and salvation to all who believe in him. Therefore, all of these factors combined make it possible for one person's life to make up for so much of mankind's sin.
