Romans 10:1-21

1 Brethren, my hearty desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they may be saved. 2 for I bear them witness, that they have a zeal for God, but not guided by true knowledge. 3 because being ignorant of the justice which is of God, and going about to establish a justification of their own, they have not submitted themselves to that which is of God. 4 for the end of the law was to bring men to Christ, that every one who believeth, might be justified. 5 For Moses describes the justice that was to be had by the law, thus : "the man who performeth the things here required, shall have life thereby." 6 but the justification which is by faith, speaks in this manner; "say not in thine heart, who shall ascend into heaven, in order to bring Christ down from above? 7 or, who shall descend into the deep, in order to bring up Christ again from the dead?" 8 what does it say "more? the word is nigh thee, let it be in thy mouth and in thy heart:" that is the word of faith which we preach. 9 for if you openly confess, that Jesus is the Lord, and sincerely believe, that God has raised him from the dead, you shall be saved. 10 for with the heart man believeth unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 for the scripture saith, "whosoever believeth on him, shall not be ashamed." 12 In reality there is no difference between the Jew and the Gentile: they have all the same Lord, who is bountiful to all that call upon him. 13 "whoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, shall be saved." 14 But how, say you, shall they call on him on whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? 15 and how shall they hear without a preacher? and how shall they preach except they be sent? as it is written, "how beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!" 16 'tis true, faith comes by preaching, and preaching is by the divine appointment. 17 but all do not obey the gospel. for Esaias saith, "Lord, who hath believed our report?" 18 I reply, have they not heard? on the contrary, "their voice spread thro' all the earth, and their words to the remotest inhabitants thereof ." 19 but still I ask, did not Israel know this? first, Moses saith, "I will provoke you to jealousy, by those that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you." 20 but Esaias is more express, and says, "I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest to them that asked not after me. 21 and to Israel he says, "all day long I have stretched forth my hands to an incredulous and rebellious people."

9 and be his true disciple, not professing that justification, which is derived from the law, but that which is from the gospel,

Romans 3:28

28 for we conclude, that a man is justified by faith, without observing the legal rites.

Romans 5:1-21

1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 who has given us access by faith to that degree of favour, we are in, by which we triumph in the hopes of divine glory. 3 and not only so, but we triumph in tribulation also, knowing that tribulation worketh patience; and patience, probation; 4 and probation, hope: 5 now hope will not deceive us, because the love of God is diffused thro' our hearts, by the holy spirit which is given to us; 6 for at the appointed time Christ died for us, when we were in a helpless, sinful state. 7 now for a wicked man no one would willingly die; but for a benefactor some have readily offer'd to die. 8 but herein hath God displayed his love towards us, in that Christ died for us, even while we were yet sinners. 9 much more then being now justified by his blood, shall we thro' him be delivered from the wrath to come. 10 for if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his son: much more being reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. 11 and not only so, but we have present joy in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now obtained the reconciliation. 12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, so death by this sin; and thereby death passed upon all men, who all by his means became mortal. 13 sin indeed was in the world all the time before the law: but then sin is not punished when there is no law. 14 nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned by violating a positive law, as did Adam, who is 15 the type of him that was to come: but yet the damage of the fall does not exactly correspond to the advantages of the divine favour: for tho' through the fall of one, mankind became mortal, yet this is greatly over-ballanced by the favour and bounty of God, in the benevolence of one man, Jesus Christ, to all mankind. 16 neither is the gift, as was the fall by one sin: for the sentence of condemnation, was for one offence; but the divine favour extends to justification from a multitude of sins. 17 for tho' death reigned thro' the single offence of one, they who receive the most valuable favour, even the gift of righteousness, shall much more easily reign by the life of one, even Jesus Christ. 18 Therefore as by one offence all men fell under condemnation: even so by one act of righteousness, all men are restored to life. 19 for as by one man's disobedience many receiv'd the punishment of sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many receive the reward of the righteous. 20 the law was introduc'd, that the greatness of the fall might fully appear; but the more sin display'd its enormity, the divine favour was so much the more transcendent. 21 that as sin prevailed unto death, even so might the divine favour prevail by righteousness unto eternal life, thro' Jesus Christ our Lord.

Galatians 2:16-17

16 yet knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in him, and not by the works of the law, by which there is no justification. 17 Now if it be a sin to seek for justification by Christ, then is Christ the minister of sin, which cannot be.

Galatians 3:24

24 so that the law was our school-master to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God, through our Lord Jesus Christ,

7 that being justified by his favour, we should have the inheritance of eternal life, according to our hopes.
