'God Forbid' in the Bible
God forbid. Let God be true, and all men liars, as it is written, "That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings and shouldest overcome when thou art judged."
God forbid. For how then shall God judge the world?
Do we then destroy the law through faith? God forbid. But we, rather, maintain the law.
God forbid. How shall we that are dead, as touching sin, live any longer therein?
What then? Shall we sin, because we are not under the law: but under grace? God forbid.
What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid: but I knew not what sin meant but by the law. For I had not known what lust had meant, except the law had said, "Thou shalt not lust."
Was that, then, which is good made death unto me? God forbid. Nay, sin was death unto me, that it might appear: how that sin by the means of that which is good, had wrought death in me: that sin which is under the commandment, might be out of measure sinful.
What shall we say then? Is there any unrighteousness with God? God forbid.
I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For even I verily am an Israelite of the seed of Abraham, and of the tribe of Benjamin;
I say then, Have they therefore stumbled that they should but fall only? God forbid: but through their fall is salvation happened unto the gentiles for to provoke them withal.
