Thematic Bible: The righteousness of faith


Thematic Bible



Why not? Because they pursued it not by faith but (as if it were possible) by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone,


For the promise to Abraham or to his descendants that he would inherit the world was not fulfilled through the law, but through the righteousness that comes by faith.

What shall we say then? -- that the Gentiles who did not pursue righteousness obtained it, that is, a righteousness that is by faith,

But the righteousness that is by faith says: "Do not say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?'" (that is, to bring Christ down)
