ISBN: 978-0-8899-7435-7

With a view to encouraging as many persons as possible to reflect on the meaning of the doctrine of justification both at the time of the Reformation and in contemporary society, the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB) and the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada (ELCIC) prepared this booklet on justification by faith through grace. The booklet contains a series of bible studies for use in congregations and parishes and includes the full text of the Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Justification. It will be of interest not only to Lutherans and Roman Catholics, but also to members of all churches committed to the search for Christian unity. The booklet contains six sessions or workshops, each concluding with a selection of articles from the Joint Declaration. In four of the sessions, reflection is assisted by means of a bible study on related biblical passages.
