Romans 3:1-8

1Then what is the advantage of being Jewish? Or what is the benefit of circumcision?

2Much in every way. First of all, they were entrusted with the sayings of God.

3So what if some did not trust? Will their lack of faith nullify God’s faithfulness?

4May it never be! Let God be true even if every man is a liar, as it is written, “that You may be righteous in Your words and prevail when You are judged.”

5But if our unrighteousness demonstrates the righteousness of God, what shall we say? God is not unrighteous to inflict wrath, is He? (I am speaking in human terms.)

6May it never be! For otherwise, how will God judge the world?

7But if by my lie the truth of God abounds to His glory, why am I still judged as a sinner?

8And why not say, “Let us do evil, so that good may come” — just as we are being slandered and as some claim that we say. Their condemnation is deserved!
