“In the historic Protestant view, good works are inseparable from biblical salvation. They are not a condiment to flavor a ‘raw’ justification, but rather are definitionally related to justification. Justification and sanctification are not like salt and pepper, or ham and eggs—two things that go well together. They are definitionally interrelated, like the terms husband and wife. If there is no wife, then by definition there is no husband. If there is no husband, then by definition there is not wife. Apart from sanctification, justification does not exist. Apart from justification, sanctification does not exist.”
