Westminster Q70: What is justification?

(Rom 3:22) even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all those who believe; for there is no distinction;

(Rom 3:24-25) being justified as a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus; whom God displayed publicly as a propitiation in His blood through faith. This was to demonstrate His righteousness, because in the forbearance of God He passed over the sins previously committed;

(Rom 4:5) But to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited as righteousness,
(2Co 5:19, 21) namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation. . . He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

(Rom 3:22) even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all those who believe; for there is no distinction;

(Rom 3:24-25) being justified as a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus; whom God displayed publicly as a propitiation in His blood through faith. This was to demonstrate His righteousness, because in the forbearance of God He passed over the sins previously committed;

(Rom 3:27-28) Where then is boasting? It is excluded. By what kind of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith. For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the Law.
(Tit 3:5, 7) He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to His mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit, . . . so that being justified by His grace we would be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

(Eph 1:7) In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace
(Rom 4:6-8) just as David also speaks of the blessing on the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works: "BLESSED ARE THOSE WHOSE LAWLESS DEEDS HAVE BEEN FORGIVEN, AND WHOSE SINS HAVE BEEN COVERED. "BLESSED IS THE MAN WHOSE SIN THE LORD WILL NOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT."

(Rom 5:17-19) For if by the transgression of the one, death reigned through the one, much more those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ. So then as through one transgression there resulted condemnation to all men, even so through one act of righteousness there resulted justification of life to all men. For as through the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the One the many will be made righteous.
(Act 10:43) "Of Him all the prophets bear witness that through His name everyone who believes in Him receives forgiveness of sins."

(Gal 2:16) nevertheless knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the Law but through faith in Christ Jesus, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, so that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the Law; since by the works of the Law no flesh will be justified.

(Php 3:9) and may be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my own derived from the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which comes from God on the basis of faith,
