Romans 3:21-31

But now apart from the Law the righteousness of God has been manifested,

being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets,

even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus

Christ for all those who believe, for there is no

distinction.Romans 3:21-22

For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift

of God; not as a result of works, that no one should

boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ

Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that

we should walk in them.Ephesians 2:8-10

this righteousness of God through faith in Jesus

Christ for all those who believe, for

there is no distinction.

Romans 3:22

Justification "the legal and formal

acquittal from guilt by God as Judge, and the

pronouncement of the believing sinner as righteous

in His sight."W.E. Vine

or just as if I'd never sinned

being justified as a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus; whom

God displayed publicly as a propitiation in His blood

through faith. This was to demonstrate His

righteousness, because in the forbearance of God He passed

over the sins previously committed.

Romans 3:24-25

Source: Romans, James Montgomery Boice, p. 382

He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, that we

might become the righteousness of God

in Him.2 Corinthians 5:21

Tetelestai! It is finished!

1. a shout of triumph when a solder has won the battle or a king a war

2. written on business documents or receipts to indicate a bill had been paid in full

The Law reveals sin but doesn't save

Will you, will I, intentionally choose

the free gift of salvation by believing

in Jesus Christ?
