Catechesis: Justification

[Christ] is the Mediator forever, and not merely in the beginning of justification. —Ap. V:195

The Law always accuses us, even in good works.—Ap. V:198

[The Church Fathers] all declare with one mouth that, even though we have good works, yet in these very works we need mercy.—Ap V:202

We should not be regarded as teaching anything new in this matter. The Church Fathers have clearly handed down the doctrine that we need mercy even in good works.—Ap. V:204
