Romans 3:1-8 - Jews Still Have An Advantage

1 What then is the superiority of the Jew? What is the benefit of circumcision? 2 Much in every way. First they were entrusted with the oracles of God. 3 For what? If some have not believed, will their unbelief make the faith of God of no effect? 4 Certainly not! But let God be true, and every man false. It is written: So that you should be proved righteous in your words and should overcome when you are judged.

5 If our unrighteousness defines God's righteousness more clearly, what shall we say? God is not unrighteous when he vents his anger is he? I speak in human terms. 6 Not at all! For how will God judge the world? 7 But what if my untruth serves God's glory by making his truth stand out more clearly? Why should I be condemned as a sinner? 8 Why not say, Let us do evil so that good may come? Some people have insulted me by accusing me of saying this very thing! They should be condemned and they will be.
