For in it is revealed God's righteousness from faith to faith. As it is written, "But the righteous shall live by faith."
For what if some were without faith? Will their lack of faith nullify the faithfulness of God?
even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ to all and on all those who believe. For there is no distinction,
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;
to demonstrate his righteousness at this present time; that he might himself be just, and the justifier of him who has faith in Jesus.
Where then is the boasting? It is excluded. By what kind of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith.
We maintain therefore that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.

Without being weakened in faith, he didn't consider his own body, already having been worn out, (he being about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah's womb.
Yet, looking to the promise of God, he didn't waver through unbelief, but grew strong through faith, giving glory to God,
Being therefore justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ;
through whom we also have our access by faith into this grace in which we stand. We rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who didn't follow after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith;
Why? Because they didn't seek it by faith, but as it were by works of the law. They stumbled over the stumbling stone;
But the righteousness which is of faith says this, "Don't say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?' (that is, to bring Christ down);
But what does it say? "The word is near you, in your mouth, and in your heart;" that is, the word of faith, which we preach:
So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
True; by their unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by your faith. Don't be conceited, but fear;

But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because it isn't of faith; and whatever is not of faith is sin.
but now is revealed, and by the Scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the eternal God, is made known for obedience of faith to all the nations;
Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's chosen ones, and the knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness,
to Titus, my true child according to a common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.
