Romans Chapter 3 : 21-30 - World English Bible [WEB]

  • World English Bible [WEB]
American Standard Version [ASV] King James Version [KJV] Webster's Bible [WB] World English Bible [WEB]
  • 21 But now apart from the law, a righteousness of God has been revealed, being testified by the law and the prophets;
  • 22 even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ to all and on all those who believe. For there is no distinction,
  • 23 for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;
  • 24 being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus;
  • 25 whom God set forth 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;
  • 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.
  • 27 Where then is the boasting? It is excluded. By what kind of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith.
  • 28 We maintain therefore that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.
  • 29 Or is God the God of Jews only? Isn't he the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also,
  • 30 since indeed there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith, and the uncircumcised through faith.

  • 21 But now, quite apart from Law, the divine righteousness stands revealed, and to it the Law and the prophets bear witness –
  • 22 the divine righteousness which is bestowed, through faith in Jesus Christ, on all, without distinction, who believe in him.
  • 23 For all have sinned, and all fall short of God’s glorious ideal,
  • 24 but, in his loving kindness, are being freely pronounced righteous through the deliverance found in Christ Jesus.
  • 25 For God set him before the world, to be, by the shedding of his blood, a means of reconciliation through faith. And this God did to prove his righteousness, and because, in his forbearance, he had passed over the sins that people had previously committed;
  • 26 as a proof, I repeat, at the present time, of his own righteousness, that he might be righteous in our eyes, and might pronounce righteous the person who takes their stand on faith in Jesus.
  • 27 What, then, becomes of our boasting? It is excluded. By what sort of Law? A Law requiring obedience? No, a Law requiring faith.
  • 28 For we conclude that a person is pronounced righteous on the ground of faith, quite apart from obedience to Law.
  • 29 Or can it be that God is the God only of the Jews? Isn’t he also the God of the Gentiles?
  • 30 Yes, of the Gentiles also, since there is only one God, and he will pronounce those who are circumcised righteous as the result of faith, and also those who are uncircumcised on their showing the same faith.

What is the Sinner's Prayer for Salvation?

The sinners prayer is a common Christian term for a prayer that is said when someone wants to repent of their sin, ask God for forgiveness, and verbally state their belief in the life, death, and saving resurrection of Jesus Christ.

"For, if with your lips you acknowledge the truth of the message that JESUS IS LORD, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with their hearts people believe and so attain to righteousness, while with their lips they make their Profession of faith and so find salvation." Romans 10:9-10

Christ's death on the cross paid in full the debt of our sin. Action must be taken to take hold of the gift.

Dear God, I know that I am a sinner and there is nothing that I can do to save myself. I confess my complete helplessness to forgive my own sin or to work my way to heaven through any good works. At this moment I trust Christ alone and receive by faith all Grace purchased by Jesus as the One who bore my sin when He died on the cross. I believe that He did all that will ever be necessary for me to stand in your holy presence. I thank you that Christ was raised from the dead as a guarantee of my own resurrection. As best as I can, I now transfer my trust to Him and by my faith take hold of His grace and love for me. I am grateful that He has promised to receive me despite my many sins and failures. Thank you for your word that will guide me as to how I should live my remaining days. Please grant me the wisdom to discern correctly and motivation to grow my faith, obedience, understanding, appreciation, and love for you. Thank you for your Grace and mercy that I do not deserve. Thank you that my salvation is not based on my level of performance in my short life but in my receiving what your victory on the cross did pay for. Thank you that I can receive by my faith alone, your glorious gift of salvation. Thank you for hearing this prayer and for saving me. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
