About this episode
“I cannot see but that the Doctrine some Men strive to promote, is but little better than Popery in a new Dress.”[1] In Benjamin Keach’s sermon titled The Marrow of True Justification, Keach is concerned about Christians who err on this important doctrine. Keach was staunchly opposed to the teaching that sincere obedience (or works) plus faith equates justification. He thought that this teaching was reverting to Roman Catholicism—popery in a new dress. If my word count is correct, Keach references “Mr. Baxter” 6 times in this sermon. In this podcast episode, we examine what has come to be called the Baxterian controversy.
