1So, do Jews have anything that others don¡¯t have? Do they get any benefit from being circumcised? 2Yes, the Jews have many benefits. The most important one is this: God trusted the Jews with his teachings. 3It is true that some Jews were not faithful to God. But will that stop God from doing what he promised? 4No, even if everyone else is a liar, God will always do what he says. As the Scriptures say about him,
¡°You will be proved right in what you say, and you will win when people accuse you.¡±* 5When we do wrong, that shows more clearly that God is right. So can we say that God does wrong when he punishes us? (That¡¯s the way some people think.) 6Of course not. If God could not punish us, how could he judge the world? 7Someone might say, ¡°When I lie, it really gives God glory*, because my lie makes his truth easier to see. So why am I judged a sinner?¡± 8It would be the same to say, ¡°We should do evil so that good will come.¡± Many people criticize us, saying that¡¯s what we teach. They are wrong, and they should be condemned for saying that.
All People Are Guilty 9So are we Jews better than other people? No, we have already said that those who are Jews, as well as those who are not Jews, are the same. They are all guilty of sin. 10As the Scriptures* say,
¡°There is no one doing what is right, not even one. 11There is no one who understands.
There is no one who is trying to be with God. 12They have all turned away from him, and now they are of no use to anyone.
There is no one who does good, not even one.¡±* 13¡°Their words come from mouths that are like open graves. They use their lying tongues to deceive others.¡±*
¡°Their words are like the poison of snakes.¡±* 14¡°Their mouths are full of cursing and angry words.¡±* 15¡°They are always ready to kill someone. 16Everywhere they go they cause trouble and ruin. 17They don¡¯t know how to live in peace.¡±* 18¡°They have no fear or respect for God.¡±* 19What the law* says is for those who are under the law. It stops anyone from making excuses. And it brings the whole world under God¡¯s judgment, 20because no one can be made right with God by following the law. The law only shows us our sin.
How God Makes People Right 21But God has a way to make people right, and it has nothing to do with the law. He has now shown us that new way, which the law and the prophets* told us about. 22God makes people right through their faith in* Jesus Christ. He does this for all who believe in Christ. Everyone is the same. 23All have sinned and are not good enough to share God¡¯s divine greatness*. 24They are made right with God by his grace*. This is a free gift. They are made right with God by being made free from sin through Jesus Christ. 25-26God gave Jesus as a way to forgive people¡¯s sins through their faith in him. God can forgive them because the blood sacrifice of Jesus pays for their sins. God gave Jesus to show that he always does what is right and fair. He was right in the past when he was patient and did not punish people for their sins. And in our own time he still does what is right. God worked all this out in a way that allows him to judge people fairly and still make right any person who has faith in Jesus. 27So do we have any reason to boast about ourselves? No reason at all. And why not? Because we are depending on the way of faith, not on what we have done in following the law. 28I mean we are made right with God through faith, not through what we have done to follow the law. This is what we believe. 29God is not only the God of the Jews. He is also the God of those who are not Jews. 30There is only one God. He will make Jews* right with him by their faith, and he will also make non-Jews* right with him through their faith. 31So do we destroy the law by following the way of faith? Not at all! In fact, faith causes us to be what the law actually wants. |
