Verse
Romans - ch 3 v 21 - 31
- But now apart from the law, a righteousness of God has been revealed, being testified by the law and the prophets;
- even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ to all and on all those who believe. For there is no distinction,
- 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 to be an atoning sacrifice1, through faith in his blood, for a demonstration of his righteousness through the passing over of prior sins, in God's forbearance;
- to demonstrate his righteousness at this present time; that he might himself be just, and the justifier of him who has faith in Jesus.
- Where then is the boasting? It is excluded. By what manner of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith.
- We maintain therefore that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.
- Or is God the God of Jews only? Isn't he the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also,
- since indeed there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith, and the uncircumcised through faith.
- Do we then nullify the law through faith? May it never be! No, we establish the law.
- or, a propitiation
