Through him we received grace and apostleship to call all the Gentiles to the obedience that comes from faith for his name’s sake.

To all in Rome who are loved by God and called to be his holy people: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.

Therefore, the promise comes by faith, so that it may be by grace and may be guaranteed to all Abraham’s offspring—not only to those who are of the law but also to those who have the faith of Abraham. He is the father of us all.

through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we boast in the hope of the glory of God.

But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God’s grace and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, overflow to the many!

For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God’s abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!

The law was brought in so that the trespass might increase. But where sin increased, grace increased all the more,

so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Dead to Sin, Alive in Christ

What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase?

For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace.

Slaves to Righteousness

What then? Shall we sin because we are not under the law but under grace? By no means!

So too, at the present time there is a remnant chosen by grace.

And if by grace, then it cannot be based on works; if it were, grace would no longer be grace.

For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you.

We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith;

Yet I have written you quite boldly on some points to remind you of them again, because of the grace God gave me

The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Thanksgiving

I always thank my God for you because of his grace given you in Christ Jesus.

By the grace God has given me, I laid a foundation as a wise builder, and someone else is building on it. But each one should build with care.

But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them—yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me.

The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
