“The gospel teaches that what could not be found in us and was to be sought in another, could be found nowhere else than in Christ, the God-man… who taking upon Himself the office of surety most fully satisfied the justice of God by His perfect obedience and thus brought to us an everlasting righteousness by which alone we can be justified before God.”
- Francis Turretin, Justification (Phillipsburg, NJ: Presbyterian & Reformed, year not available), 29.
