Is used for the act whereby our Saviour transfers or makes over to us what he had earned or purchased by his holy life and death. Accordingly it is by this application of the merits of Christ that we are to be justified and entitled to grace and glory. Application is also used for that part of a sermon in which the preacher brings home of applies the truth of religion to the consciences of his hearers.

See SERMON.
