‘There are many books on justification, including some heavyweight tomes, but there is an ongoing need for concise studies which are sound in their theology yet accessible to a wide range of non–specialist readers. Right with God by Michael Reeves falls into that category, and can be recommended as a fine primer on justification. The first four chapters set out the fundamentals of justification, seeing it as rooted in the love of God and centred in the work of Christ. The following three chapters deal with some of the questions that frequently arise in the minds of both Christians and non–Christians – the relationship between faith and works, the necessity for godly living on the part of the justified, and the possibility of assurance of salvation. The final chapter takes us back to the wonder of God’s love for sinners such as us. It is a lot to pack into such a short book, yet Reeves manages the task with skill and clarity, and also with a warmth which prevents the book becoming purely academic. This is a useful starting place for anyone who wishes to come to grips with one of the great doctrines of the Christian faith.’ David McKay, The Covenanter Witness Magazine
