Romans 3:21 - 3:26

RomansSteve Gregg
This text explores the central ideas in Romans 3:21-26, where Paul argues that righteousness comes from God as a gift and is not determined by external deeds. The concept of the "glory of God" is central to Christian theology, with believers called to bear the image of Christ in their lives. The text also discusses the atonement theories, the significance of the propitiation for sin, and the importance of faith in Jesus for salvation. Ultimately, the text emphasizes the role of Jesus in providing redemption, reconciliation, and justification for imperfect, fallen humanity out of God's love for humanity.
