Or what is the benefit of circumcision? <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-2.htm"><b>2</b></a></span>Great in every respect. First of all, that they were entrusted with the oracles of God. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-3.htm"><b>3</b></a></span>What then? If some did not believe, their unbelief will not nullify the faithfulness of God, will it? <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-4.htm"><b>4</b></a></span>May it never be! Rather, let God be found true, though every man <i>be found</i> a liar, as it is written, <br> “THAT THOU MIGHTEST BE JUSTIFIED IN THY WORDS, <br> AND MIGHTEST PREVAIL WHEN THOU ART JUDGED.”<p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-5.htm"><b>5</b></a></span>But if our unrighteousness demonstrates the righteousness of God, what shall we say? The God who inflicts wrath is not unrighteous, is He? (I am speaking in human terms.) <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-6.htm"><b>6</b></a></span>May it never be! For otherwise how will God judge the world? <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-7.htm"><b>7</b></a></span>But if through my lie the truth of God abounded to His glory, why am I also still being judged as a sinner? <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-8.htm"><b>8</b></a></span>And why not <i>say</i> (as we are slanderously reported and as some affirm that we say), “Let us do evil that good may come”? Their condemnation is just. <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-9.htm"><b>9</b></a></span>What then? Are we better than they? Not at all; for we have already charged that both Jews and Greeks are all under sin; <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-10.htm"><b>10</b></a></span>as it is written, <br> “THERE IS NONE RIGHTEOUS, NOT EVEN ONE; <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-11.htm"><b>11</b></a></span>THERE IS NONE WHO UNDERSTANDS, <br> THERE IS NONE WHO SEEKS FOR GOD; <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-12.htm"><b>12</b></a></span>ALL HAVE TURNED ASIDE, TOGETHER THEY HAVE BECOME USELESS; <br> THERE IS NONE WHO DOES GOOD, <br> THERE IS NOT EVEN ONE.” <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-13.htm"><b>13</b></a></span>“THEIR THROAT IS AN OPEN GRAVE, <br> WITH THEIR TONGUES THEY KEEP DECEIVING,” <br> “THE POISON OF ASPS IS UNDER THEIR LIPS”; <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-14.htm"><b>14</b></a></span>“WHOSE MOUTH IS FULL OF CURSING AND BITTERNESS”; <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-15.htm"><b>15</b></a></span>“THEIR FEET ARE SWIFT TO SHED BLOOD, <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-16.htm"><b>16</b></a></span>DESTRUCTION AND MISERY ARE IN THEIR PATHS, <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-17.htm"><b>17</b></a></span>AND THE PATH OF PEACE HAVE THEY NOT KNOWN.” <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-18.htm"><b>18</b></a></span>“THERE IS NO FEAR OF GOD BEFORE THEIR EYES.” <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-19.htm"><b>19</b></a></span>Now we know that whatever the Law says, it speaks to those who are under the Law, that every mouth may be closed, and all the world may become accountable to God; <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-20.htm"><b>20</b></a></span>because by the works of the Law no flesh will be justified in His sight; for through the Law <i>comes</i> the knowledge of sin. <p><b><i>Justification by Faith</i></b><p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-21.htm"><b>21</b></a></span>But now apart from the Law <i>the</i> righteousness of God has been manifested, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-22.htm"><b>22</b></a></span>even <i>the</i> righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all those who believe; for there is no distinction; <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-23.htm"><b>23</b></a></span>for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-24.htm"><b>24</b></a></span>being justified as a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus; <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-25.htm"><b>25</b></a></span>whom God displayed publicly as a propitiation in His blood through faith. <i>This was</i> to demonstrate His righteousness, because in the forbearance of God He passed over the sins previously committed; <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-26.htm"><b>26</b></a></span>for the demonstration, <i>I say,</i> of His righteousness at the present time, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-27.htm"><b>27</b></a></span>Where then is boasting? It is excluded. By what kind of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-28.htm"><b>28</b></a></span>For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the Law. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-29.htm"><b>29</b></a></span>Or is God <i>the God</i> of Jews only? Is He not <i>the God</i> of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also, <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-30.htm"><b>30</b></a></span>since indeed God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith is one. <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/romans/3-31.htm"><b>31</b></a></span>Do we then nullify the Law through faith? May it never be! On the contrary, we establish the Law.</div><br /><div id="botbox"><div class="padbot"><div align="center">New American Standard Bible Copyright © 1960, 1962, 1963, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1995 by The Lockman Foundation, La Habra, Calif.
