Romans 10-9 (3/4)

  • Therefore, you have no excuse, whoever you may be, when you pass judgment on others. For in judging others you condemn yourself, since you are doing the same things.
  • For God will repay everyone in accordance with what his deeds deserve.
  • All those who have sinned outside the Law will perish outside the Law, and all who sinned under the Law will be judged by the Law.
  • For no one can be regarded as justified in the sight of God by keeping the Law. The Law brings only the consciousness of sin.
  • But now the righteousness of God that is attested by the Law and the Prophets has been manifested apart from law: the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. No distinction has been made.
  • For all have sinned and thereby are deprived of the glory of God, and all are justified by the gift of his grace that is given freely through the redemption in Christ Jesus.
  • Therefore, now that we have been justified by faith, we are at peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
  • And not only that, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we realize that suffering develops perseverance, and perseverance produces character, and character produces hope.
  • Such hope will not be doomed to disappointment, because the love of God has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us.
  • At the appointed time, while we were still helpless, Christ died for the ungodly.
  • Indeed, it is seldom that anyone will die for a just person, although perhaps for a good person someone might be willing to die. Thus, God proved his love for us in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us.
  • For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, how much more certain it is that, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.
  • However, the gift is not like the transgression. For if the transgression of one man led to the death of the many, how much greater was the overflowing effect of the grace of God and the gift of the one man Jesus Christ that has abounded for the many.
  • For just as through the disobedience of one man the many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one man the many will be made righteous.
  • Hence, as sin’s reign resulted in death, so the grace of God also might reign through righteousness resulting in eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
  • What then shall we say? Should we persist in sin in order that grace may abound? Of course not! We have died to sin. How can we live in it any longer?
  • Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?
  • For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we shall also be united with him in his resurrection. We know that our old self was crucified with him, so that our sinful body might be destroyed and we might no longer be enslaved to sin.
  • Nor should you present any part of your body as an instrument for wickedness leading to sin. Rather, present yourselves to God as having been raised from death to life and the parts of your body to God as instruments for righteousness.
  • For sin is no longer to have any power over you, since you are not under the Law but under grace.
  • What then? Should we sin because we are not under the Law but under grace? Of course not!
  • However, now that you have been freed from sin and bound to the service of God, the benefit you receive is sanctification, and the end is eternal life.
  • For the wages of sin is death, but the gift freely given by God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
  • What then should we say? That the Law is sinful? Absolutely not! Yet if it had not been for the Law, I would not have known what sin was. I would not have known what covet is if the Law had not said, “You shall not covet.”
  • Hence, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and death.

Those who live according to the flesh fix their attention on the things of the flesh, while those who live according to the Spirit set their thoughts on spiritual things.
