I am a debtor both to the Greeks and to the barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish.

But now I go to Jerusalem to minister to the saints.

So then, brothers and sisters, we are under obligation, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh

“Their feet are swift to shed blood,

For I long to see you, so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you,

It is good not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything that causes your brother to stumble.

So you too consider yourselves dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus.

Or who has first given to God, that God needs to repay him?

Thus I am eager also to preach the gospel to you who are in Rome.

Pay everyone what is owed: taxes to whom taxes are due, revenue to whom revenue is due, respect to whom respect is due, honor to whom honor is due.

You also are among them, called to belong to Jesus Christ.

Now to the one who works, his pay is not credited due to grace but due to obligation.

So, my brothers and sisters, you also died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you could be joined to another, to the one who was raised from the dead, to bear fruit to God.

and do not present your members to sin as instruments to be used for unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as those who are alive from the dead and your members to God as instruments to be used for righteousness.

He will reward each one according to his works:

Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools

And we have different gifts according to the grace given to us. If the gift is prophecy, that individual must use it in proportion to his faith.

To all those loved by God in Rome, called to be saints: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!

So indeed it was credited to Abraham as righteousness.

And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what should not be done.
