Now we know that whatsoever things the law saith, it speaks to those who are under the law: that every mouth might be sealed up, and all the world become criminal before God. Wherefore by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified before God: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. read more. But now distinct from the law the righteousness of God is manifest, receiving testimony from the law and the prophets; the righteousness of God indeed by faith in Jesus Christ unto all and upon all that believe: for there is no difference: for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; justified freely by his grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus:

justified freely by his grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus: whom God hath proposed as the propitiatory sacrifice through faith in his blood, in demonstration of his justice for the remission of past sins, through the patience of God; read more. for a demonstration of his justice at this present time: that he might be just, though justifying him who is of the faith of Jesus.

For if Abraham was justified by works, he hath cause for glorying; though not before God. For what doth the scripture say? Abraham truly believed God, and it was imputed to him for righteousness. read more. Now to him that worketh, the reward is not brought to account as a favour, but as a debt.

Now to him that worketh, the reward is not brought to account as a favour, but as a debt. But to him who doth not work, but believeth in him who justifieth the ungodly, his faith is reckoned in account for righteousness. read more. As David also describeth the blessedness of that man, to whom God imputeth righteousness without works, "Blessed are they whose unrighteousnesses are forgiven, and whose sins are covered up. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will in nowise impute sin."

for the law causeth wrath: for where there is no law, neither is there transgression.

BEING justified therefore by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

BEING justified therefore by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: by whom also we have had an introduction through faith into this grace in which we have stood fast, and are rejoicing in hope of the glory of God.

by whom also we have had an introduction through faith into this grace in which we have stood fast, and are rejoicing in hope of the glory of God. And not only so, but we glory also in tribulations: knowing that tribulation produceth patience; read more. and patience, proof; and proof, hope; and hope doth not make us ashamed; because the love of God is poured out into our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given to us. For even then when we were without strength, Christ died in due time for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous person will any one die: though for a good man perhaps some one might even dare to die. But God commendeth his own love towards us, that, though we were yet sinners, Christ died in our stead. Therefore much more, being justified already by his blood, shall we be saved by him from wrath. For if, being enemies, we have been reconciled to God by the death of his son, much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. And not so only, but we exult in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom already we have received reconciliation.

For if by the offence of one, death reigned by that one; much more they who receive the abundance of grace, and of the gift of righteousness, shall reign in life by one, Christ Jesus.

THAT then shall we say? Shall we abide in sin, that grace may abound?

What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is life eternal in Jesus Christ our Lord.

What then shall we say? Is the law sin? God forbid. Yea, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not even known concupiscence, unless the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.

that the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled by us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

He who even spared not his own Son, but freely delivered him up for us all, how shall he not also, together with him, freely give us all things?

And when they knew the grace which was bestowed on me, James and Cephas and John, who appeared to be the pillars [of the church], gave unto me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go unto the Gentiles, and they to the circumcision:

We who are Jews by descent, and not sinners sprung from Gentiles, knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by faith in Christ, and not by works of the law; because by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by faith in Christ, and not by works of the law; because by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. For if seeking to be justified by Christ, we also ourselves should be found sinners, is Christ then a minister of sin? God forbid.

For if seeking to be justified by Christ, we also ourselves should be found sinners, is Christ then a minister of sin? God forbid. For if I build up again the very same things which I have pulled down, I stamp myself a transgressor.

For if I build up again the very same things which I have pulled down, I stamp myself a transgressor. For I through the law am dead to the law, that I should live unto God.

For I through the law am dead to the law, that I should live unto God. I am crucified with Christ, yet I live; though no more I, but Christ liveth in me: and my present life in the flesh, is a life by faith in the Son of God, who hath loved me, and delivered up himself for me.

I am crucified with Christ, yet I live; though no more I, but Christ liveth in me: and my present life in the flesh, is a life by faith in the Son of God, who hath loved me, and delivered up himself for me. I do not set at nought the grace of God; for if righteousness came by the law, truly Christ hath died in vain.

For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no more by promise; but to Abraham God gave it freely by promise.

Ye have vacated all expectations from Christ, as many of you as are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

For by grace ye are saved through faith, and this not of yourselves; it is the gift of God:

For by grace ye are saved through faith, and this not of yourselves; it is the gift of God:

But to every one of us hath the grace been given, according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

Let him that stole steal no more; but rather labour hard, working with his hands that which is good, that he may have something to give to him that is in want.

but be ye kind one to another, full of sensibility, forgiving mutually, even as God in Christ hath forgiven you.

For this favour on the part of Christ is granted you, not only that ye should believe on him, but also that ye should suffer for his sake;

Wherefore God also hath transcendently exalted him, and bestowed on him a name which is above every name:

buried with him in baptism, in which also ye have been raised up together with him by faith, the energy of God, who raised him from the dead. And you, who were dead in sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened with him, freely forgiving you all trespasses;

who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and insolently violent, But I was admitted to mercy, for I did it ignorantly in unbelief; but the grace of our Lord hath exceedingly abounded with faith and love, which is in Christ Jesus. read more.

But at the same time prepare me also a lodging: for I hope that through your prayers I shall be given unto you.

Wherefore receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, may we hold fast the grace, by which we can offer to God acceptably divine service, with reverence and pious awe:

But the God of all grace, who hath called us to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, when ye have suffered a little while, himself perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.
