Romans 3:24-28

3:24 being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,

3:25 whom God sent to be an atoning sacrifice through faith in his blood, for a demonstration of his righteousness through the passing over of prior sins, in God’s forbearance;

3:26 to demonstrate his righteousness at this present time, that he might himself be just and the justifier of him who has faith in Jesus.

3:27 Where then is the boasting? It is excluded. By what kind of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith.

3:28 We maintain therefore that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.
