Romans 3:1-9

1WhatG5101, thenG3767, is theG3588 advantageG4053 ofG3588 being a JewG2453? OrG2228 whatG5101 is theG3588 valueG5622 of circumcisionG4061? 2MuchG4183 inG2596 everyG3956 wayG5158. First of allG1063G3303G4412, they have been entrusted withG4100 theG3588 very wordsG30511 of GodG2316.

3WhatG5101 ifG1487 someG5100 did not have faithG569? Will theirG846 lack of faithG570 nullifyG3361G2673 God’sG2316 faithfulnessG4102? 4Certainly notG3361G1096! Let GodG2316 beG1096 trueG227 andG1161 everyG3956 manG444 a liarG5583. AsG2531 it is writtenG1125:

“So thatG302 You may be proved rightG1344 whenG1722 YouG4771 speakG3056andG2532 victoriousG3528 whenG1722 YouG4771 judgeG2919.”2

5ButG1161 ifG1487 ourG1473 unrighteousnessG93 highlightsG4921 the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316, whatG5101 shall we sayG2046? That GodG2316 is unjustG94 to inflictG2018 His wrathG3709 on us? I am speakingG3004 inG2596 human termsG444. 6Certainly notG3361G1096! In that caseG1893, howG4459 could GodG2316 judgeG2919 theG3588 worldG2889? 7HoweverG1161, ifG1487 myG1699 falsehoodG5582 accentuatesG4052 God’sG2316 truthfulnessG225, to the increaseG1519 of HisG846 gloryG1391, whyG5101 am IG2504 stillG2089 condemnedG2919 asG5613 a sinnerG268? 8Why notG3361 say, asG2531 someG5100 slanderouslyG987 claimG5346 that weG1473 sayG3004, “Let us doG4160 evilG2556 thatG2443 goodG18 may resultG2064”? TheirG3739 condemnationG2917 isG1510 deservedG1738!

9WhatG5101 thenG3767? Are we any betterG4284? NotG3756 at allG3843. ForG1063 we have already made the chargeG4256 that JewsG2453 andG2532 GreeksG1672 alikeG5037 areG1510 allG3956 underG5259 sinG266.
