This purpose is to prove to both his Jewish and Gentile readers that justification comes by faith alone, or rather. *In this respect Dr. Jacobs, in the work so often cited, follows the Pauline and Lutheran order. First he treats the whole order of redemption through Jesus Christ, then, at the close of his work, deals with the doctrine of the divine decrees. 116 Election and Conversion by grace through faith in Jesus Christ ; this doctrine and fact he maintains over against the error that justi-... fication comes by the deeds of the law and works of human merit. There was need for this presentation, for, on the one hand, there were Jews who insisted on the law ; on the other, Gentiles who believed in the merit of good character and conduct. His polemic is presented in good homiletical order. After stating his main theme (1:16, 17), where he declares that the righteousness of God is bestowed through faith, he deals first with the heathen world, and shows that it is altogether steeped in sin, and therefore cannot save itself (1:18-32); secondly, he shows that both Jews and Gentiles, on account of their sins, are under the same condemnation and disability (2:1-29); thirdly, he turns to the Jews, and, by a most clean-cut argument, shows them that, while they have been highly favored of God as His chosen people and in being entrusted with the "oracles of God," yet they cannot be saved by the deeds of the law, simply because they are too much in the bondage of sin to keep it (chapters 3 and 4) ; then comes his matchless argument (chapters 5 to 8 inclusive) for justification by faith alone as opposed to all work- righteousness, whether of Jew or Gentile, ending with the wonderful apostrophe to saving and preserving love in the concluding verses of the eighth chapter.
