for circumcision?
45:002:027 And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law?
45:002:028 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
45:002:029 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
45:003:001 What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision?
45:003:002 Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.
45:003:003 For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?
45:003:004 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
45:003:005 But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man)
45:003:006 God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?
45:003:007 For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?
45:003:008 And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.
45:003:009 What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;
45:003:010 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
45:003:011 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
45:003:012 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
45:003:013 Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:
45:003:014 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:
45:003:015 Their feet are swift to shed blood:
45:003:016 Destruction and misery are in their ways:
45:003:017 And the way of peace have they not known:
45:003:018 There is no fear of God before their eyes.
45:003:019 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
45:003:020 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
45:003:021 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
45:003:022 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
45:003:023 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
45:003:024 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
45:003:025 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
45:003:026 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
45:003:027 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
45:003:028 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
45:003:029 Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:
45:003:030 Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.
45:003:031 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
45:004:001 What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, hath found?
45:004:002 For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; but not before God.
45:004:003 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness.
45:004:004 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.
45:004:005 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
45:004:006 Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,
45:004:007 Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.
45:004:008 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.
45:004:009 Cometh this blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness.
45:004:010 How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.
45:004:011 And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also:
45:004:012 And the father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had being yet uncircumcised.
45:004:013 For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.
45:004:014 For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect:
45:004:015 Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, there is no transgression.
45:004:016 Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,
