Romans 3:26-28

WNT(i) 26 with a view to demonstrating, at the present time, His righteousness, that He may be shown to be righteous Himself, and the giver of righteousness to those who believe in Jesus. 27 Where then is there room for your boasting? It is for ever shut out. On what principle? On the ground of merit? No, but on the ground of faith. 28 For we maintain that it is as the result of faith that a man is held to be righteous, apart from actions done in obedience to Law.
