Sermon Bible Commentary - Romans 3:21-26

Romans 3:21-26 Paul's Evangel. The history of God's relations with human sin breaks into two before Christ, and after Christ. The death of Christ, which marks the point of division, is at the same time the key to explain both. I. Antecedently to the death of Christ the sins of men were passed over in the forbearance of God. By offering His Son for the expiation of sin, God has cut off from men the temptation to misconstrue His earlier toleration of sins, His forbearance to punish them, or His... read more

Redemption Redemption, "to deliver by paying a price." The N.T. doctrine. The N.T. records the fulfilment of the O.T. types and prophecies of redemption through the sacrifice of Christ.

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Romans 3:1-31

Shall we turn in our Bibles now to Romans 3 .Paul has just told the Jews that having the law does not justify a person. It is the keeping of the law that justifies one. That uncircumcision really has no value in just the ritual itself. Circumcision has no value; it is the circumcision of the heart, spiritual circumcision that God really counts.Therefore, if a person is really walking after the Spirit, though he may not have had the physical rite of circumcision, still God counts what is in his... read more

What advantage hath the jew? St. Paul was aware of the warm exclamations of his nation against the doctrine of the preseding chapter, that he had superseded the peculiar calling of Abraham, and all the glory it had conferred on the Israelites. The chief advantage was in making them the guardians of the... read more

The gospel is a glorious remedy for a universal and otherwise incurable disease; and the first step must ever be to make us sensible of that disease. For one of its most dangerous symptoms is, that it makes men insensible of it.
