This side of several months pondering Bavinck's writings on justification, here's my best attempt at a single (run-on) sentence articulating his view--
Justification, the outstanding blessing of salvation, is the Triune God’s counterintuitive gift of forensic acquittal and right status, an end-time decision announced now in the middle of history, consisting of Christ’s own righteous obedience freely imputed to sinners united to Christ through self-divesting and Christ-riveted faith.

Great job!
