8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.

Justification #19

  
/ 55  
  

19. If anyone says that man can be justified before God by his own works, which are done either in the strength of human nature, or through the teaching of the law apart from Divine grace through Jesus Christ, let him be anathema, Canon I, concerning Justification.
