Romans:3:21-31
Seeker Overlay ON
*
But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed ,
being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets ,
*
even the righteousness of God ,
through faith in Jesus Christ ,
to all and on all who believe .
For there is no difference ;
*
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God ,
*
being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus ,
*
whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood ,
through faith ,
to demonstrate His righteousness ,
because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed ,
*
to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness ,
that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus .
*
Where is boasting then ?
It is excluded .
By what law ?
Of works ?
No ,
but by the law of faith .
*
Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law .
*
Or is He the God of the Jews only ?
Is He not also the God of the Gentiles ?
Yes ,
of the Gentiles also ,
*
since there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith .
*
Do we then make void the law through faith ?
Certainly not !
On the contrary ,
we establish the law .
