John Beart (1673-1716) was a Reformed preacher of the Gospel and biblical scholar.

In this amazing work on the sinner’s justifying righteousness, Beart biblically and forcefully combats unbiblical views of justification, and teaches the reader what it means to stand before God in the righteousness of Jesus Christ. It is, in fact, a hearty work on the ever-important doctrine of justification.

Beart covers , 1) the Law of God as a rule of duty and obedience. 2) How fallen man is utterly unable to answer the demands of the law. 3) How fallen man is unable to fulfill such a righteousness as is required to justification. And 4) how Jesus Christ fulfilled the law on behalf of the elect.

He also covers the intricacies of how believers are made righteous only through Christ’s person, in his obedience and suffering, and that this justifying righteousness is equally imputed to all elect believers. This is accomplished by faith as an instrument. Not that faith is the matter of our justification, nor meritorious cause of it; but is used in this only as an instrument, not as a work.

This work is not a scan or facsimile, has been carefully transcribed by hand being made easy to read in modern English, and has an active table of contents for electronic versions.

PREFACE
CHAPTER 1: THAT THE LAW IS A RULE OF DUTY AND OBEDIENCE
And that, as such, it is most perfect and unchangeable in every state of man, whether sinless, fallen, or recovered by grace.
CHAPTER 2: THE RULE OF OBEDIENCE AND RIGHTEOUSNESS
CHAPTER 3: FALLEN MAN UNANSWEREABLE TO THE DEMANDS OF THE LAW
That fallen man, both as in the fall, and when recovered, is utterly unable to answer the demands of the law, or fulfill such a righteousness as it requires unto justification.
CHAPTER 4: JESUS CHRIST FULFILLED THE LAW ON BEHALF OF THE ELECT
That Jesus Christ, as surety for the elect, has in their stead fulfilled the law, as a rule of righteousness for justification, and hath borne the penalty or curse due for the transgression of it.
CHAPTER 5: BELIEVERS MADE RIGHTEOUS ONLY THROUGH CHRIST
That the righteousness fulfilled by Jesus Christ, in his own person, in obedience and suffering, is that justifying righteousness, which is equally imputed to all believers.
CHAPTER 6: FAITH AS AN INSTRUMENT
That faith is not the matter of our justification, nor meritorious cause of it; but is used in this only as an instrument, not as a work.
