He<n id="1" /> was given over<n id="2" /> because of our transgressions and was raised for the sake of<n id="3" /> our justification.<n id="4" />p>

Therefore it is necessary to be in subjection, not only because of the wrath of the authorities<n id="1" /> but also because of your conscience.<n id="2" />

<p class="bodytext">Where, then, is boasting?<n id="1" /> It is excluded! By what principle?<n id="2" /> Of works? No, but by the principle of faith!

But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, but<n id="1" /> the Spirit is your life<n id="2" /> because of righteousness.

God publicly displayed<n id="1" /> him<n id="2" /> at his death<n id="3" /> as the mercy seat<n id="4" /> accessible through faith.<n id="5" /> This was to demonstrate<n id="6" /> his righteousness, because God in his forbearance had passed over the sins previously committed.<n id="7" />

<p class="bodytext">For the promise<n id="1" /> to Abraham or to his descendants that he would inherit the world was not fulfilled through the law, but through the righteousness that comes by faith.

For just as through the disobedience of the one man<n id="1" /> many<n id="2" /> were made sinners, so also through the obedience of one man<n id="3" /> many<n id="4" /> will be made righteous.

so that just as sin reigned in death, so also grace will reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.p>

For everything that was written in former times was written for our instruction, so that through endurance and through encouragement of the scriptures we may have hope.

This gospel<n id="1" /> he promised beforehand through his prophets in the holy scriptures,

You who boast in the law dishonor God by transgressing the law!

But they are justified<n id="1" /> freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.

Do we then nullify<n id="1" /> the law through faith? Absolutely not! Instead<n id="2" /> we uphold the law.p>

No, in all these things we have complete victory<n id="1" /> through him<n id="2" /> who loved us!

Consequently faith comes from what is heard, and what is heard comes through the preached word<n id="1" /> of Christ.<n id="2" />p>

<p class="bodytext">In regard to the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but in regard to election they are dearly loved for the sake of the fathers.

so that by God&#8217;s will I may come to you with joy and be refreshed in your company.

to the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, be glory forever! Amen.p>

<t /><p class="bodytext">So then, just as sin entered the world through one man and death through sin, and so death spread to all people<n id="1" /> because<n id="2" /> all sinned &#8211;

For if, by the transgression of the one man,<n id="1" /> death reigned through the one, how much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one, Jesus Christ!p>
