Process of Justification: Justification begins with preparatory acts such as faith and hope, which are necessary for an individual to be disposed to receive God's grace. This is followed by the actual moment of justification, where a person is transformed from a state of sin to a state of grace and divine sonship through the sacrament of Baptism. This two-part understanding indicates that while the moment of justification can be seen as decisive, it is preceded by a process of preparation and cooperation with grace The Catechism emphasizes that justification is not merely a forensic declaration but involves an actual transformation of the sinner into a state of grace The process of justification also highlights the cooperation between divine grace and human freedom. While God's grace initiates the process, the individual must respond to this grace through faith and good works, indicating that justification is not solely an instantaneous act but involves ongoing cooperation
