Romans 3:27 - 4:25
RomansSteve Gregg
The passage discusses the relationship between faith and the law, particularly the Jewish law, and emphasizes that righteousness in God's sight is based on faithfulness. Paul argues that the law is established, but it does not mean the perpetuation of the Jewish law code. Through various examples, including Abraham and David, Paul establishes that justification by faith was present throughout the Old Testament, and ultimately through Christ's death and resurrection, we have peace with God. The passage emphasizes that faith, and not the law, justifies a sinner by the grace of God, and the inheritance promised to Abraham is fulfilled through Christ as the ultimate seed.
