Christ is the culmination of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes. | For Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes. |
If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. | Because if you confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. |
|
For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. | For one believes with the heart and so is justified, and one confesses with the mouth and so is saved. |
As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.” | The scripture says, “No one who believes in him will be put to shame.” |
For, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” | For, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” |
Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ. | So faith comes from what is heard, and what is heard comes through the word of Christ. |
