Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God, through our Lord Jesus Christ:

By whom also we have been introduced through faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

And hope shameth us not, because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts, by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

Much more then being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more being reconciled, we shall be saved through his life.

And not only so, but we also glory in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the reconciliation.

Therefore as by one man sin entered into the world and death by sin, even so death passed upon all men, in that all had sinned.

Yet not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if by the offence of one many died, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, that of one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.

And not as the loss by one that sinned, so is the gift; for the sentence was by one offence to condemnation; but the free gift is of many offences unto justification.

For if through one man's offence death reigned by one, they who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness, shall much more reign in life, by one, even Jesus Christ.

As therefore by one offence the sentence of death came upon all men to condemnation, so also by one righteousness the free gift came upon all men to justification of life.

For as by the disobedience of one man, many were constituted sinners, so by the obedience of one, many shall be constituted righteous.

That as sin had reigned through death, so grace also might reign through righteousness to eternal life, by Jesus Christ our Lord.

Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death, that as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we also should walk in newness of life.

For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:

Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that we might no longer serve sin.

So reckon ye also yourselves to be dead to sin, and alive to God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

But thanks be to God, that, whereas ye were the servants of sin, ye have now obeyed from the heart the form of doctrine into which ye have been delivered.

For the married woman is bound to her husband while he is alive; but if her husband be dead, she is freed from the law of her husband.

Therefore if she marry another man while her husband liveth, she will be called an adultress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law, so as to be no adultress, though she marry another man.

Thus ye also, my brethren, are dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye might be married to another, even to him who was raised from the dead, that we may bring forth fruit to God.

For when we were in the flesh, sinful passions, which were by the law, wrought in our members, so as to bring forth fruit unto death.

But sin taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of desire: for without the law sin was dead.

For sin taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me.

Was then that which is good made death to me? God forbid: But sin: so that it appeared sin, working death in me by that which is good: so that sin might by the commandment become exceeding sinful.

For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God hath done: sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, to be a sacrifice for sin, he hath condemned sin in the flesh:

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

Now to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace:

Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.

Now if Christ be in you, the body indeed is dead because of sin, but the spirit is life because of righteousness.

And if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead, will also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the Sons of God.

And if children, then heirs, heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ: if we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him.

For I reckon that the sufferings of the present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

For the creation was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by him who subjected it,

In hope that the creation itself shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption, into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope; for what a man seeth, how doth he yet hope for?

Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought; but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us, with groanings which cannot be uttered.

For whom he foreknew, he also predestinated, conformable to the image of his Son, that he might be the first-born among many brethren.

What shall we say then to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?

nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Neither because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children, but in Isaac shall thy seed be called:

And not only this, but when Rebecca also had conceived by one man,

Moreover the scripture saith to Pharoah, For this very thing have I raised thee up, that I may shew my power in thee, and that my name may be declared through all the earth.

And it shall come to pass, in the place where it was said to them, Ye are not my people, there shall they be called the sons of the living God.

Isaiah likewise crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, the remnant only shall be saved.

What shall we say then? That the Gentiles who followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is by faith:

Wherefore? Because they sought it, not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law: for they stumbled at that stumbling stone;

As it is written, Behold I lay in Sion a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence: and every one that believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

Brethren, the desire of my heart, and my prayer to God for Israel is, that they may be saved.

For Moses describeth the righteousness which is by the law, The man who doth these things shall live by them.

But the righteousness which is by faith speaketh thus: Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend into heaven, (that is, to bring Christ down:)

That if thou confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in thy heart, that God raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

For the scripture saith, Every one that believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

For whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord, shall be saved.

But how shall they preach, unless they be sent? As it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them who bring the good tidings of peace, who bring the glad tidings of good things!

Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

But I say, Hath not Israel known? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are not a nation; by a foolish nation I will anger you.

But Isaiah is very bold and saith, I was found by them that sought me not: I was made manifest to them that asked not after me.

But if by grace, then it is no more of works: else grace is no longer grace. And if it be of works, then it is no more grace; else work is no longer work.

Let their eyes be darkened that they may not see, and bow down their back alway.

I say then, Have they stumbled so as to fall? God forbid. But by their fall salvation is come to the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy.

But if their fall be the riches of the world, and their loss the riches of the Gentiles, how much more their fulness?

I magnify my office: If by any means I may provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh, and save some of them.

For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what will the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?

For if the first-fruits be holy, so is the lump: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.

Wilt thou say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in?

Well; they were broken off for unbelief, and thou standest by faith.

Be not high-minded, but fear. For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed left he also spare not thee.

Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God! Toward them that fell severity; but toward thee goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: else shalt thou also be cut off.

And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, shall be grafted in; for God is able to graft them in again.

For if thou wert cut off from the naturally wild olive-tree, and grafted contrary to nature into a good olive-tree; how much more shall these, who are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive-tree?

Brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, (lest ye should be wise in your own conceits) that hardness is in part happened to Israel, till the fulness of the Gentiles be come in:

And so all Israel shall be saved, as it is written, The deliverer shall come out of Sion, and shall turn away iniquity from Jacob.

Who hath first given to him, and it shall be repaid him again?

For of him, and through him, and to him are all things: to him be glory for ever! Amen.

I exhort you therefore, brethren, by the tender mercies of God, to present your bodies unto God, a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable, which is your reasonable service.

And be not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God.

Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given us, whether it be prophesy, let us prophesy according to the analogy of faith:

Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil, cleave to that which is good.

In brotherly love be full of tender affection toward each other, in honour preferring one another:

Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, continue instant in prayer.

Mind not high, but condescend to low things. Be not wise in your own conceit. Render to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.

If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.

Be not overcome with evil, but overcome evil with good.

Let every soul be subject to the supreme powers, for there is no power but from God; the powers that be, are appointed by God.

For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Wouldest thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise from it; for he is the servant of God to thee for good.

But if thou dost that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain; for he is the servant of God, an avenger for wrath against him that doth evil.

Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.

For this cause ye pay tribute also: for they are the ministers of God, attending continually on this very thing.

For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not bear false witness, thou shalt not covet, and if there be any other commandment, it is summed up in this saying, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

Who art thou that judgest another's servant? To his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be upheld; for God is able to establish him.

One man esteemeth one day above another; another esteemeth every day alike; let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.

For to this end Christ both died and lived again, that he might be the Lord both of the dead and of the living.

For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.

I know and am assured by the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself: but to him that accounteth any thing to be unclean, it is unclean.

But if thy brother is grieved by thy meat, thou no longer walkest charitably. Destroy not him by thy meat, for whom Christ died.

Therefore let not your good be evil spoken of.

And he that in these serveth Christ, is acceptable to God, and approved by men.

And again Isaiah faith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and one arising to rule over the Gentiles: in him shall the Gentiles hope.
