“to demonstrate his righteousness at this present time, that he might himself be just and the justifier of him who has faith in Jesus.”
Romans 3:26 (WEB)
Context Reading
24being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, 25whom God sent to be an atoning sacrificethrough faith in his blood, for a demonstration of his righteousness through the passing over of prior sins, in God’s forbearance; 26to demonstrate his righteousness at this present time, that he might himself be just and the justifier of him who has faith in Jesus. 27Where then is the boasting? It is excluded. By what kind of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith. 28We maintain therefore that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.
