Romans 3:24-26

24and are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.

25God presented Him as an atoning sacrifice1 in His blood through faith, in order to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance He had passed over the sins committed beforehand. 26He did this to demonstrate His righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and to justify the one who has faith in Jesus.
