Romans 3:22-26
3:22 namely, the righteousness of God through the faithfulness of Jesus Christ
for all who believe. For there is no distinction,
3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
3:24 But they are justified
freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.
3:25 God publicly displayed
him
at his death
as the mercy seat
accessible through faith.
This was to demonstrate
his righteousness, because God in his forbearance had passed over the sins previously committed.
3:26 This was
also to demonstrate
his righteousness in the present time, so that he would be just
and the justifier of the one who lives because of Jesus’ faithfulness.
Romans 3:1
3:1 Therefore what advantage does the Jew have, or what is the value of circumcision?
Colossians 1:11
1:11 being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might for the display of
all patience and steadfastness, joyfully
Titus 3:4-7
3:4 But “when the kindness of God our Savior and his love for mankind appeared,
3:5 he saved us not by works of righteousness that we have done but on the basis of his mercy, through the washing of the new birth and the renewing of the Holy Spirit,
3:6 whom he poured out on us in full measure
through Jesus Christ our Savior.
3:7 And so,
since we have been justified by his grace, we become heirs with the confident expectation of eternal life.”
