Being

For the loving-kindness of God has been revealed, bringing Salvation for all;

But, in his loving-kindness, are being freely pronounced righteous through the deliverance found in Christ Jesus.

Now wages are regarded as due to the man who works, not as a favor, but as a debt;

Therefore, having been pronounced righteous as the result of faith, let us enjoy peace with God through Jesus Christ, our Lord.

But if in love, then no longer as a result of obedience. Otherwise love would cease to be love.

Such some of you used to be; but you washed yourselves clean. You became Christ's People! you were pronounced righteous through the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, and through the Spirit of our God!

So we placed our faith in Christ Jesus, in order that we might be pronounced righteous, as the result of faith in Christ, and not of obedience to Law; for such obedience 'will not result in even one soul's being pronounced righteous.'

Made

And if children, then heirs-heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ, since we share Christ's sufferings in order that we may also share his Glory.

And, since you belong to Christ, it follows that you are Abraham's offspring and, under the promise, sharers in the inheritance.

You, therefore, are no longer a slave, but a son; and, if a son, then an heir also, by God's appointment.

And therefore God, in his desire to show, with unmistakable plainness, to those who were to enter on the enjoyment of what he had promised, the unchangeableness of his purpose, bound himself with an oath.

It was faith that enabled Noah, after he had received the divine warning about what could not then be foreseen, to build, in reverent obedience, an ark in which to save his family. By his faith he condemned the world, and became possessed of that righteousness which follows upon faith.

Listen, my dear Brothers. Has not God chosen those who are poor in the things of this world to be rich through their faith, and to possess the Kingdom which he has promised to those who love him?

Again, those of you who are married men should live considerately with their wives, showing due regard to their sex, as weaker than their own, and not forgetting that they share with you in the gift of Life. Then you will be able to pray without hindrance.

Hope

and is based on the hope of Immortal Life, which God, who never lies, promised before the ages began,

while we are awaiting our Blessed Hope--the Appearing in glory of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus.

General references

For we conclude that a man is pronounced righteous on the ground of faith, quite apart from obedience to Law.

And this is what he himself promised us--The Immortal Life!
