Vine's Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words [ A-2,Noun,G1345, dikaioma ] - Justification, Justifier, Justify
has three distinct meanings, and seems best described comprehensively as "a concrete expression of righteousness;" it is a declaration that a person or thing is righteous, and hence, broadly speaking, it represents the expression and effect of dikaiosis (No. 1). It signifies
(a) "an ordinance," Luke 1:6; Romans 1:32, RV, "ordinance," i.e., what God has declared to be right, referring to His decree of retribution (AV, "judgment"); Romans 2:26, RV, "ordinances of the Law" (i.e., righteous requirements enjoined by the Law); so Romans 8:4, "ordinance of the Law," i.e., collectively, the precepts of the Law, all that it demands as right; in Hebrews 9:1, Hebrews 9:10, ordinances connected with the tabernacle ritual;
(b) "a sentence of acquittal," by which God acquits men of their guilt, on the conditions
(1) of His grace in Christ, through His expiatory sacrifice,
(2) the acceptance of Christ by faith, Romans 5:16;
(c) "a righteous act," Romans 5:18, "(through one) act of righteousness," RV, not the act of "justification," nor the righteous character of Christ (as suggested by the AV: dikaioma does not signify character, as does dikaiosune, righteousness), but the death of Christ, as an act accomplished consistently with God's character and counsels; this is clear as being in antithesis to the "one trespass" in the preceding statement. Some take the word here as meaning a decree of righteousness, as in Romans 5:16; the death of Christ could indeed be regarded as fulfilling such a decree, but as the Apostle's argument proceeds, the word, as is frequently the case, passes from one shade of meaning to another, and here stands not for a decree, but an act; so in Revelation 15:4, RV, "righteous acts" (AV, "judgments"), and Revelation 19:8, "righteous acts (of the saints)" (AV, "righteousness").
(PARSING VINE'S Context Greek word dikaioma N ,G1345: It has 3 distinct meanings;
(A) An ordinance/law decree, that God has declared, "a concrete expression of righteousness;" A sovereign Creator God's ""declaration of a persons righteousness"".
(B) A full sin pardon," by which God acquits men of their guilt, on the conditions: (1) of His grace in Christ, through His expiatory sacrifice,
(2) the acceptance of Christ by FAITH, Romans 5:16;
(c) Not the act of justification granted/pronounced by Christ. But, through one act of righteousness done by Christ (Rom 5:18). Christ' death, by one act of righteousness accomplishing the counsel of God. This righteous act supersedes Adams sin. Fulfilling the laws decree/requirement for sin/DEATH. Christ is the Lord our Righteousness. (Jer 23:6)
Rom 3:
25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
26 To declare, I say, at this time ""his righteousness"": ""that he might be just"", ""and the justifier"" ""of him which believeth in Jesus"".
SALVATION/JUSTIFICATION comes is accessed by FAITH placed in Jesus RIGHTEOUS sacrificial (God blood) sin atoning work. When any person places their FAITH in Jesus work. Jesus the JUSTIFIER pronounces the believer RIGHTEOUS/ETERNALLY SAVED. Amen
