'God' in the Bible
From Paul, a slave of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God.
who was appointed the Son-of-God-in-power according to the Holy Spirit by the resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord.
To all those loved by God in Rome, called to be saints: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!
First of all, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world.
For God, whom I serve in my spirit by preaching the gospel of his Son, is my witness that I continually remember you
and I always ask in my prayers, if perhaps now at last I may succeed in visiting you according to the will of God.
For the righteousness of God is revealed in the gospel from faith to faith, just as it is written, "The righteous by faith will live."
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of people who suppress the truth by their unrighteousness,
because what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.
For although they knew God, they did not glorify him as God or give him thanks, but they became futile in their thoughts and their senseless hearts were darkened.
and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for an image resembling mortal human beings or birds or four-footed animals or reptiles.
Therefore God gave them over in the desires of their hearts to impurity, to dishonor their bodies among themselves.
They exchanged the truth of God for a lie and worshiped and served the creation rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.
For this reason God gave them over to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged the natural sexual relations for unnatural ones,
And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what should not be done.
slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, contrivers of all sorts of evil, disobedient to parents,
For there is no partiality with God.
For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous before God, but those who do the law will be declared righteous.
on the day when God will judge the secrets of human hearts, according to my gospel through Christ Jesus.
But if you call yourself a Jew and rely on the law and boast of your relationship to God
You who boast in the law dishonor God by transgressing the law!
For just as it is written, "the name of God is being blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you."
but someone is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is of the heart by the Spirit and not by the written code. This person's praise is not from people but from God.
Actually, there are many advantages. First of all, the Jews were entrusted with the oracles of God.
What then? If some did not believe, does their unbelief nullify the faithfulness of God?
Absolutely not! Let God be proven true, and every human being shown up as a liar, just as it is written: "so that you will be justified in your words and will prevail when you are judged."
But if our unrighteousness demonstrates the righteousness of God, what shall we say? The God who inflicts wrath is not unrighteous, is he? (I am speaking in human terms.)
Absolutely not! For otherwise how could God judge the world?
For if by my lie the truth of God enhances his glory, why am I still actually being judged as a sinner?
there is no one who understands, there is no one who seeks God.
"There is no fear of God before their eyes."
Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be silenced and the whole world may be held accountable to God.
But now apart from the law the righteousness of God (which is attested by the law and the prophets) has been disclosed --
namely, the righteousness of God through the faithfulness of Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction,
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
God publicly displayed him at his death as the mercy seat accessible through faith. This was to demonstrate his righteousness, because God in his forbearance had passed over the sins previously committed.
Or is God the God of the Jews only? Is he not the God of the Gentiles too? Yes, of the Gentiles too!
Since God is one, he will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith.
For if Abraham was declared righteous by the works of the law, he has something to boast about -- but not before God.
For what does the scripture say? "Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness."
So even David himself speaks regarding the blessedness of the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works:
(as it is written, "I have made you the father of many nations"). He is our father in the presence of God whom he believed -- the God who makes the dead alive and summons the things that do not yet exist as though they already do.
He did not waver in unbelief about the promise of God but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God.
He was fully convinced that what God promised he was also able to do.
Therefore, since we have been declared righteous by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
And hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
But God demonstrates his own love for us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, how much more, since we have been reconciled, will we be saved by his life?
Not only this, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received this reconciliation.
But the gracious gift is not like the transgression. For if the many died through the transgression of the one man, how much more did the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one man Jesus Christ multiply to the many!
For the death he died, he died to sin once for all, but the life he lives, he lives to God.
So you too consider yourselves dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus.
and do not present your members to sin as instruments to be used for unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as those who are alive from the dead and your members to God as instruments to be used for righteousness.
But thanks be to God that though you were slaves to sin, you obeyed from the heart that pattern of teaching you were entrusted to,
But now, freed from sin and enslaved to God, you have your benefit leading to sanctification, and the end is eternal life.
For the payoff of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
So, my brothers and sisters, you also died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you could be joined to another, to the one who was raised from the dead, to bear fruit to God.
For I delight in the law of God in my inner being.
Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.
For God achieved what the law could not do because it was weakened through the flesh. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and concerning sin, he condemned sin in the flesh,
because the outlook of the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to the law of God, nor is it able to do so.
Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
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 all who are led by the Spirit of God are the sons of God.
And if children, then heirs (namely, heirs of God and also fellow heirs with Christ) -- if indeed we suffer with him so we may also be glorified with him.
For the creation eagerly waits for the revelation of the sons of God.
For the creation was subjected to futility -- not willingly but because of God who subjected it -- in hope
And we know that all things work together for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose,
What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
Who will bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies.
Who is the one who will condemn? Christ is the one who died (and more than that, he was raised), who is at the right hand of God, and who also is interceding for us.
nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in creation will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
To them belong the patriarchs, and from them, by human descent, came the Christ, who is God over all, blessed forever! Amen.
It is not as though the word of God had failed. For not all those who are descended from Israel are truly Israel,
This means it is not the children of the flesh who are the children of God; rather, the children of promise are counted as descendants.
What shall we say then? Is there injustice with God? Absolutely not!
So then, it does not depend on human desire or exertion, but on God who shows mercy.
So then, God has mercy on whom he chooses to have mercy, and he hardens whom he chooses to harden.
But who indeed are you -- a mere human being -- to talk back to God? Does what is molded say to the molder, "Why have you made me like this?"
But what if God, willing to demonstrate his wrath and to make known his power, has endured with much patience the objects of wrath prepared for destruction?
"And in the very place where it was said to them, 'You are not my people,' there they will be called 'sons of the living God.'"
Brothers and sisters, my heart's desire and prayer to God on behalf of my fellow Israelites is for their salvation.
For I can testify that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not in line with the truth.
For ignoring the righteousness that comes from God, and seeking instead to establish their own righteousness, they did not submit to God's righteousness.
because if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
So I ask, God has not rejected his people, has he? Absolutely not! For I too am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin.
God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew! Do you not know what the scripture says about Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel?
as it is written, "God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that would not see and ears that would not hear, to this very day."
For if God did not spare the natural branches, perhaps he will not spare you.
Notice therefore the kindness and harshness of God -- harshness toward those who have fallen, but God's kindness toward you, provided you continue in his kindness; otherwise you also will be cut off.
And even they -- if they do not continue in their unbelief -- will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
For the gifts and the call of God are irrevocable.
Just as you were formerly disobedient to God, but have now received mercy due to their disobedience,
For God has consigned all people to disobedience so that he may show mercy to them all.
Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how fathomless his ways!
Or who has first given to God, that God needs to repay him?
Therefore I exhort you, brothers and sisters, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a sacrifice -- alive, holy, and pleasing to God -- which is your reasonable service.
Do not be conformed to this present world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may test and approve what is the will of God -- what is good and well-pleasing and perfect.
For by the grace given to me I say to every one of you not to think more highly of yourself than you ought to think, but to think with sober discernment, as God has distributed to each of you a measure of faith.
Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except by God's appointment, and the authorities that exist have been instituted by God.
