In context
AI-assisted, sourcedRomans 3:9-20None righteous
About Romans 3The Jews have the advantage that "unto them were committed the oracles of God," and whatever men do, "let God be true, but every man a liar." Yet "both Jews and Gentiles... are all under sin," for "There is none righteous, no, not one," and "by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified." "But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested," for "all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus," so "a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law," and this does not void the law but establishes it.
