God presented Him to demonstrate His righteousness at the present time, so that He would be righteous and declare righteous the one who has faith in Jesus.

For this is the statement of the promise: At this time I will come, and Sarah will have a son.

In the same way, then, there is also at the present time a remnant chosen by grace.

Besides this, knowing the time, it is already the hour for you to wake up from sleep, for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed.
