Romans 3:21-31 - Righteousness Through Faith Revealed

21 But now a righteousness of God has been manifested independent of law, being witnessed by the law and the prophets. 22 And the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ is for all and upon all those who believe, for there is no distinction. 23 For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God, 24 being made righteous freely by his grace, through the redemption in Christ Jesus, 25 whom God set forth an expiatory sacrifice through faith in his blood, for proof of his justice, because of the passing over of the sins that have formerly occurred 26 (in the forbearance of God), for proof of his justice at the present time, for him to be righteous, and who makes the man from Jesus' faith righteous.

27 Where then is the boasting? It is excluded. By what law, of works? No, but by a law of faith. 28 We therefore consider a man to be made righteous by faith independent of works of law. 29 Or is God of Jews only and not also of Gentiles? Yes, of Gentiles also, 30 since God is one, who will make the man of circumcision righteous from faith, and the man of uncircumcision through faith. 31 Do we then make law void through faith? May it not happen! Instead, we establish law.
