'With God' in the Bible
because we know that a man does not come into right standing with God by doing what the law commands, but by simple trust in Christ, we too have trusted in Christ Jesus, in order to come into right standing with God by simple trust in Christ and not by doing what the law commands, because by doing what the law commands no man can come into right standing with God.
Now if, in our efforts to come into right standing with God through union with Christ, we have proved ourselves to be sinners like the heathen themselves, does that make Christ a party to our sin? Of course not.
I never can nullify the unmerited favor of God. For if right standing with God could come through law, then Christ died for nothing.
just as "Abraham put his faith in God, and it was credited to him as right standing with God"?
Now it is evident that through the law no man is brought into right standing with God, for "The man in right standing with God will live by faith,"
So the law has been our attendant to lead us to Christ, so that we might through faith obtain right standing with God.
You people, whoever you are among you, who try to get into right standing with God, through law have cut yourselves off from Christ, you have missed the way of God's favor.
For we, by the Spirit, are awaiting the hoped-for blessing which our right standing with God will bring us.
