Romans 3:21-26
\nGod’s Grace and Righteousness<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Today, March 13th, 2023, let us, together in the grace of God, rejoice and reflect on the Word of God in Romans 3:21-26.<\/span><\/p>\n

21 But now a righteousness of God has been revealed apart from Law, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets,<\/span> <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

22 even the righteousness of God through faith of Jesus Christ toward all and upon all those believing; for there is no difference, <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

23 for all sinned and fall short of the glory of God, <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

24 being justified freely by His grace through the redemption in Christ Jesus, <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

25 whom God set forth as a propitiation through faith in His blood, as a demonstration of His righteousness through the passing over of the sins that had taken place before, in the forbearance of God, <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

26 for a demonstration of His righteousness in the present time, for His being just and justifying the one that is of the faith of Jesus. <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n
