But, if the truth of God, through my lie, abounded unto His glory, why am I also still judged as a sinner?

And why not (as we are slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say), "Let us do evil that good may come?" whose condemnation is just.

You will say to me, then, "Why doth He still find fault? for who has withstood His will?"

Nay but, O man, who are you that reply against God ? Shall the thing formed say to Him Who formed it, "Why didst Thou make me thus?"
