Piper isn’t teaching progressive justification. He is teaching that those who begin to trust in Christ alone for justification before God will continue to trust in Christ alone for justification. A person who trusts in the fruits of justification or in the evidences of saving faith instead of continuing to trust in Christ alone demonstrates that he has never truly trusted Christ or been truly justified.
