Rom 3:25-26 God presented
Christ as a sacrifice of atonement,
through the shedding of his blood
—to be received by faith. He did
this to demonstrate his
righteousness, because in his
forbearance he had left the sins
committed beforehand
unpunished— he did it todemonstrate his righteousness at
the present time, so as to be just
and the one who justifies those
who have faith in Jesus.Monday 25 July 2011

God is righteous and cannot turn
from that - he does not, and
cannot allow sin, and all who do
sin come under his judgment.
God does not sin in any way -
the Gospel does not make light
of sin but exalts God who bears
all the judgements and
punishments which are rightly
the result of sin - God does this
in love and enables the sinner topass from condemnation to
righteousness.

Rom 10:3 -Since they did not
know the righteousness of God
and sought to establish their
own, they did not submit to
God’s righteousness.
Isa 64:6 - All of us have become
like one who is unclean, and all
our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all shrivel up like a leaf,
and like the wind our sins
sweep us away.

Rom 3:9-18 records sin as
God sees it and fullydescribes mans condition.
In society we have man
made standards for
righteousness - yet eachstands before God and is
udged as God sees them,
not by other men. Only
through God’s grace andhis provision in Christ will
anyone enter heaven.

What then? Are we Jews any better
off? No, not at all. For we have already
charged that all, both Jews and
Greeks, are under sin, as it is written:"None is righteous, no, not one; no one
understands; no one seeks for God. All
have turned aside; together they have
become worthless; no one does good,
not even one.""Their throat is an open grave; they use
their tongues to deceive.""The venom
of asps is under their lips."
"Their mouth is full of curses and
bitterness.""Their feet are swift to shed
blood; in their paths are ruin and
misery, and the way of peace they have
not known.""There is no fear of God
before their eyes."

not be done by the believer but
is done in them, a life imparted
with the righteousness of God.Monday 25 July 2011
