Gospel + ∅ (Part 2) Romans 3:9-31


Big Idea: The gospel plus nothing justifies us

1. The law can't justify us because we're all sinful (Rom 3:9-20)

  • Everyone is a sinner

  • The law teaches us how sinful we are

2. The good news is that Jesus came to justify sinners (Rom 3:21-26)

  • Jesus' arrival shows God's righteousness

  • Jesus' arrival shows God's grace

3. So, we trust in Jesus and not the law to justify us (Rom 3:27-31)

  • Faith in Jesus, not our works, justifies us

  • Everyone can be justified through faith in Jesus
