Verse
Romans - ch 3 v 1 - 20
- What advantage then hath the Jew, or what is the profit of circumcision?
- Much every way. First indeed, because the words of God were committed to them.
- For what if some of them have not believed? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect? God forbid.
- But God is true; and every man a liar, as it is written, That thou mayest be justified in thy words, and mayest overcome when thou art judged.
- But if our injustice commend the justice of God, what shall we say? Is God unjust, who executeth wrath?
- (I speak according to man.) God forbid: otherwise how shall God judge this world?
- For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie, unto his glory, why am I also yet judged as a sinner?
- And not rather (as we are slandered, and as some affirm that we say) let us do evil, that there may come good? whose damnation is just.
- What then? Do we excel them? No, not so. For we have charged both Jews, and Greeks, that they are all under sin.
- As it is written: There is not any man just.
- There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
- All have turned out of the way; they are become unprofitable together: there is none that doth good, there is not so much as one.
- Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have dealt deceitfully. The venom of asps is under their lips.
- Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:
- Their feet swift to shed blood:
- Destruction and misery in their ways:
- And the way of peace they have not known:
- There is no fear of God before their eyes.
- Now we know, that what things soever the law speaketh, it speaketh to them that are in the law; that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may be made subject to God.
- Because by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified before him. For by the law is the knowledge of sin.
