Justification Found Through The Gospel, Not The Law of Moses – 3:21-8:39




                                                    Romans 3:21-4:25



                                                                           1
 The Gospel of Christ is the
  ONLY hope for sinful man –
  (1:16,17; 3:21-23)
 The sinful condition of the
  whole world and its need for
  salvation – (1:18-3:20)
 All are justified by faith apart
  from the law – (3:21 - 7:25)
 In this study we will see the
  proposition stated and OT
  examples given – (3:21 - 4:25)
                                     2
 The righteousness of God apart
  from the law is revealed (21)
 Found ONLY through faith in
  Christ & is available to all (22)
 All have sinned – therefore
  justification is by grace (23,24)
 Made possible by the giving of
  God’s Son - Jesus (25-26)
 The Law of Faith excludes
  boasting (27-31)
                                      3
Abraham
 What is discovered by examining the
  justification of the physical forefather
  of the Jews - (4:1; John 8:39)
 Abraham was not justified by
  boastful works – (4:2; Eph. 2:8.9)
 Abraham was not righteous because
  he deserved it – rather he “believed
  God” and was COUNTED as righteous
  – (4:3; Gen. 15:6; Gal. 3:6; James 2:23)
                                             4
 Paul clearly defines the type of works
  under consideration - (4:4; 3:27,28;
  9:32; 11:6; Gal. 3:10-12)
 “Works” is not referring to humble
  submission to God’s stated will – (4:5;
  6:16-18; Mt. 7:21-23)
 The system by which men are justified
  depends on “forgiveness” not “merit”–
  (4:6-8; Ps. 32:1,2; Acts 2:38; Col 2:12-14)
                                                5
 Can Gentiles receive this blessedness?
  (4:9; 3:29,30; 9:24; 10:12,13; 15:8-19;
  Gal. 3:14,26-28)
 Abraham was counted as righteous
  before the giving of circumcision –
  (4:10-12,15; Gen. 15:6; 17:10)
 Promise of righteousness not through
  the Law but through faith – (4:13-18;
  Gal. 3:16-29)
 We must have the same kind of faith
  as Abraham – (4:12-18; John 8:39,40) 6
Abraham’s Faith exemplified
 Not weak – but strong – believing
  that with God the impossible is
  possible - (4:19,20)
 Abraham was FULLY convinced that
  God was not only able to keep His
  promises – but that He would –
  (4:20-21; Gen. 18:14; Mat. 19:26; Luke
  1:37; 2 Tim 1:12; Heb. 11:13)
 Therefore it was accounted to Him for
  righteousness – (4:22)              7
Recorded For Us
 Men are “counted righteous” today
  by the same principle – if we believe
  on God who raised the Lord Jesus
  Christ from the dead - (4:23,24;
  Rom. 10:9-17; Mk 16:16; Acts 2:22-38)
 Jesus died because of our sins and
  was raised for our justification –
  (4:25; 3:25; 5:6-8; 8:3; Is. 53:5,6,10-12;
  2 Cor. 5:21; Gal. 1:4; 3:13)
                                           8
Romans 4:12 (NKJV)
   and the father of circumcision to those who not only
   are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the
steps of the faith which our father Abraham had while
                   still uncircumcised.
Genesis 12:4               Genesis 15:6
Hebrews 11:8              Romans 4:1-4,12




          Genesis 13:4                      Genesis 22:3,12,16,18
          Hebrews 11:9                         James 2:21-25
Romans 1:16,17
16For  I am not ashamed of the gospel,
for it is the power of God for salvation
 to everyone who believes, to the Jew
 first and also to the Greek. 17For in it
 the righteousness of God is revealed
  from faith for faith, as it is written,
   "The righteous shall live by faith.“

04 righteousness of_god_not_law_but_christ

  • 1. Justification Found Through The Gospel, Not The Law of Moses – 3:21-8:39 Romans 3:21-4:25 1
  • 2.  The Gospel of Christ is the ONLY hope for sinful man – (1:16,17; 3:21-23)  The sinful condition of the whole world and its need for salvation – (1:18-3:20)  All are justified by faith apart from the law – (3:21 - 7:25)  In this study we will see the proposition stated and OT examples given – (3:21 - 4:25) 2
  • 3.  The righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed (21)  Found ONLY through faith in Christ & is available to all (22)  All have sinned – therefore justification is by grace (23,24)  Made possible by the giving of God’s Son - Jesus (25-26)  The Law of Faith excludes boasting (27-31) 3
  • 4. Abraham  What is discovered by examining the justification of the physical forefather of the Jews - (4:1; John 8:39)  Abraham was not justified by boastful works – (4:2; Eph. 2:8.9)  Abraham was not righteous because he deserved it – rather he “believed God” and was COUNTED as righteous – (4:3; Gen. 15:6; Gal. 3:6; James 2:23) 4
  • 5.  Paul clearly defines the type of works under consideration - (4:4; 3:27,28; 9:32; 11:6; Gal. 3:10-12)  “Works” is not referring to humble submission to God’s stated will – (4:5; 6:16-18; Mt. 7:21-23)  The system by which men are justified depends on “forgiveness” not “merit”– (4:6-8; Ps. 32:1,2; Acts 2:38; Col 2:12-14) 5
  • 6.  Can Gentiles receive this blessedness? (4:9; 3:29,30; 9:24; 10:12,13; 15:8-19; Gal. 3:14,26-28)  Abraham was counted as righteous before the giving of circumcision – (4:10-12,15; Gen. 15:6; 17:10)  Promise of righteousness not through the Law but through faith – (4:13-18; Gal. 3:16-29)  We must have the same kind of faith as Abraham – (4:12-18; John 8:39,40) 6
  • 7. Abraham’s Faith exemplified  Not weak – but strong – believing that with God the impossible is possible - (4:19,20)  Abraham was FULLY convinced that God was not only able to keep His promises – but that He would – (4:20-21; Gen. 18:14; Mat. 19:26; Luke 1:37; 2 Tim 1:12; Heb. 11:13)  Therefore it was accounted to Him for righteousness – (4:22) 7
  • 8. Recorded For Us  Men are “counted righteous” today by the same principle – if we believe on God who raised the Lord Jesus Christ from the dead - (4:23,24; Rom. 10:9-17; Mk 16:16; Acts 2:22-38)  Jesus died because of our sins and was raised for our justification – (4:25; 3:25; 5:6-8; 8:3; Is. 53:5,6,10-12; 2 Cor. 5:21; Gal. 1:4; 3:13) 8
  • 9. Romans 4:12 (NKJV) and the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of the faith which our father Abraham had while still uncircumcised. Genesis 12:4 Genesis 15:6 Hebrews 11:8 Romans 4:1-4,12 Genesis 13:4 Genesis 22:3,12,16,18 Hebrews 11:9 James 2:21-25
  • 10. Romans 1:16,17 16For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 17For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, "The righteous shall live by faith.“ 10
