Then what advantage does the Jew have? Or what is the profit of circumcision? Gen 25:32Rom 2:25-29Ecc 6:11Ecc 6:8Heb 13:91Co 15:32Isa 1:11-15Mal 3:14 Much in every way! Because first of all, they were entrusted with the revelations of God. Act 7:38Rom 9:4Neh 9:13-14Psa 147:19-201Co 9:171Pe 4:11Heb 5:122Pe 1:19-21 For what if some were without faith? Will their lack of faith nullify the faithfulness of God? 2Ti 2:13Heb 4:2Rom 9:6Isa 55:11Tit 1:1-21Sa 15:292Th 1:3Num 23:19 May it never be! Yes, let God be found true, but every man a liar. As it is written, Psa 51:4Psa 116:11Gal 2:17Heb 6:18Deu 32:4Tit 1:2Jhn 3:33Job 36:3
“that you might be justified in your words,
and might prevail when you come into judgment.” 1
But if our unrighteousness commends the righteousness of God, what will we say? Is God unrighteous who inflicts wrath? I speak like men do. Rom 6:19Gal 3:151Co 9:8Rom 2:5Rom 9:18-20Deu 32:39-43Nam 1:2Rom 4:1 May it never be! For then how will God judge the world? Gen 18:25Act 17:31Job 8:3Job 34:17-19Psa 50:6Psa 9:8Psa 96:13Psa 98:9 For if the truth of God through my lie abounded to his glory, why am I also still judged as a sinner? Rom 3:4Rom 9:19-20Act 13:27-292Ki 8:10-15Isa 10:6-7Mat 26:34Mat 26:69-751Ki 13:17-18 Why not (as we are slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say), “Let’s do evil, that good may come?” Those who say so are justly condemned. Rom 6:1Rom 6:15Rom 5:20Rom 7:71Pe 3:16-17Jud 1:4Mat 5:11
What then? Are we better than they? No, in no way. For we previously warned both Jews and Greeks that they are all under sin. Gal 3:22Rom 6:15Isa 65:5Rom 11:32Rom 3:22-23Rom 3:191Co 14:151Co 4:7 As it is written, Psa 53:1-3Psa 14:1-3Rom 3:231Jn 1:8-10Job 15:14Job 25:4Mrk 7:21-22Mrk 10:18
“There is no one righteous;
no, not one.
There is no one who understands. Psa 14:2-4Psa 53:2Tit 3:3Hos 4:6Rom 8:7Hos 7:10Isa 31:1Isa 55:6
There is no one who seeks after God.
They have all turned away. Psa 14:3Ecc 7:20Isa 59:8Isa 64:6Isa 53:6Ecc 7:291Pe 2:25Eph 2:3
They have together become unprofitable.
There is no one who does good,
no, not so much as one.” 2
“Their throat is an open tomb. Psa 5:9Psa 140:3Mat 23:27-28Jer 9:3-5Psa 57:4Ezk 13:7Isa 59:3Jas 3:5-8
With their tongues they have used deceit.” 3
“The poison of vipers is under their lips.” 4
“Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.” 5 Psa 10:7Psa 109:17-18Psa 59:12Jas 3:10
“Their feet are swift to shed blood. Isa 59:7-8Pro 1:16Pro 6:18
Destruction and misery are in their ways.
The way of peace, they haven’t known.” 6 Isa 59:8Rom 5:1Luk 1:79Mat 7:14Isa 57:21
“There is no fear of God before their eyes.” 7 Psa 36:1Pro 23:17Pro 16:6Pro 8:13Gen 20:11Luk 23:40Rev 19:5
Now we know that whatever things the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be closed, and all the world may be brought under the judgment of God. Gal 3:10Gal 3:22-23Rom 2:12-18Rom 3:9Gal 5:18Ezk 16:631Co 1:29Rom 3:23 Because by the works of the law, no flesh will be justified in his sight; for through the law comes the knowledge of sin. Gal 2:16Act 13:39Rom 3:28Gal 2:19Rom 4:15Rom 4:13Rom 5:20Rom 9:32
But now apart from the law, a righteousness of God has been revealed, being testified by the law and the prophets; Act 10:43Jer 33:16Php 3:9Jer 23:5-6Gal 3:8Isa 51:8Isa 61:10Heb 10:1-14 even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ to all and on all those who believe. For there is no distinction, Rom 10:12Gal 3:28Gal 2:16Rom 8:1Rom 5:1-11Col 3:11Gal 3:6-9Php 3:9 for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God; Ecc 7:201Jn 1:8-10Gal 3:22Rom 3:9Rom 11:32Rom 3:191Th 2:122Th 2:14 being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, 1Pe 1:18-19Tit 3:5-7Col 1:14Eph 1:6-7Rom 5:9Tit 2:14Rom 4:161Co 1:30 whom God sent to be an atoning sacrifice 8 through faith in his blood, for a demonstration of his righteousness through the passing over of prior sins, in God’s forbearance; Rom 3:23-241Pe 1:18-201Jn 4:101Jn 2:2Col 1:20-23Heb 9:14-22Rom 5:9Act 13:38-39 to demonstrate his righteousness at this present time, that he might himself be just and the justifier of him who has faith in Jesus. Deu 32:4Rom 4:5Act 13:38-39Rom 3:30Isa 42:21Psa 85:10-11Rom 8:33Zep 3:5
Where then is the boasting? It is excluded. By what kind of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith. Rom 4:2Rom 2:231Co 1:29-31Eph 2:8-10Gal 3:22Rom 2:171Jn 5:11-12Rom 7:21 We maintain therefore that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law. Tit 3:7Gal 2:16Gal 3:24Gal 3:8Rom 3:26Jas 2:24Php 3:9Rom 4:5 Or is God the God of Jews only? Isn’t he the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also, Col 3:11Eph 3:6Zec 2:11Gal 3:14Gal 3:25-29Rom 9:24-26Zec 8:20-23Jer 16:19 since indeed there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith. Gal 3:8Gal 3:20Php 3:3Col 2:10-11Gal 2:14-16Gal 5:6Gal 6:15Rom 4:11-12
Do we then nullify the law through faith? May it never be! No, we establish the law. Gal 2:21Mat 5:17Rom 10:4Rom 13:8-101Co 9:21Rom 8:4Rom 7:7-14Gal 3:17-19
