'Person' in the Bible
Therefore, you have no excuse every one of you who judges. For when you pass judgment on another person, you condemn yourself, since you, the judge, practice the very same things.
For he will repay everyone according to what that person has done:
Therefore, if the uncircumcised person follows the requirements of the law, will not his uncircumcision be credited for circumcision?
And the uncircumcised person by nature who carries out the law will judge you who, [though provided] with {the precise written code} and circumcision [are] a transgressor of the law.
For a person is not a Jew who is one outwardly, and true circumcision is not something visible in the flesh.
On the contrary, a person is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is of the heart—by the Spirit, not the letter. That man’s praise is not from men but from God.
As it is written, "Not even one person is righteous.
All have turned away. They have become completely worthless. No one shows kindness, not even one person!
For no person will be justified [freed of guilt and declared righteous] in His sight by [trying to do] the works of the Law. For through the Law we become conscious of sin [and the recognition of sin directs us toward repentance, but provides no remedy for sin].
in the forbearance of God, for the demonstration of his righteousness in the present time, so that he should be just and the one who justifies the [person] by faith in Jesus.
For we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the actions prescribed by the Law.
Likewise, David also speaks of the blessedness of the person whom God regards as righteous apart from actions:
How blessed is the person whose sins the Lord will never charge against him!"
For rarely will someone die for a just person—though for a good person perhaps someone might even dare to die.
since a person who has died is freed from sin’s claims.
Don't you realize, brothers for I am speaking to people who know the Law that the Law can press its claims over a person only as long as he is alive?
In the same way, my brothers, through the Messiah's body you also died as far as the Law is concerned, so that you may belong to another person, the one who was raised from the dead, and may bear fruit for God.
For I joyfully agree with the law of God in my inner person,
You, however, are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, this person does not belong to him.
For he says to Moses, "I will be merciful to the person I want to be merciful to, and I will be kind to the person I want to be kind to."
For Moses writes about the righteousness that comes from the Law as follows: "The person who obeys these things will find life by them."
For with the heart a person believes [in Christ as Savior] resulting in his justification [that is, being made righteous—being freed of the guilt of sin and made acceptable to God]; and with the mouth he acknowledges and confesses [his faith openly], resulting in and confirming [his] salvation.
For I say, through the grace that was given me, to every man who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think reasonably, as God has apportioned to each person a measure of faith.
Every person must be subject to the governing authorities, for no authority exists except by God's permission. The existing authorities have been established by God,
So the person who resists such authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will incur judgment
One person believes he may eat anything, but one who is weak eats only vegetables.
The person who eats any kind of food must not ridicule the person who does not eat them, and the person who does not eat certain foods must not criticize the person who eats them, for God has accepted him.
One person considers one day to be above another day. Someone else considers every day to be the same. Each one must be fully convinced in his own mind.
I know and have been persuaded by the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in and of itself, but it is unclean to a person who thinks it is unclean.
For if your brother is being hurt by what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. Do not destroy the person for whom the Messiah died by what you eat.
for the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking [what one likes], but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
For the person who serves the Messiah in this way is pleasing to God and approved by people.
Do not destroy God's action for the sake of food. Everything is clean, but it is wrong to make another person stumble because of what you eat.
As for the faith you do have, have it as your own conviction before God. How blessed is the person who has no reason to condemn himself because of what he approves!
But the person who has doubts is condemned if he eats, because he does not act in faith; and anything that is not done in faith is sin.
