• 21 But now a righteousness from God, apart from
  law, has been made known, to which the Law and
  the Prophets testify. 22 This righteous-ness
  from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to
  all who believe. There is no difference, 23 for
  all have sinned and fall short of the glory of
  God, 24 and are justified freely by his grace
  through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.

• 25 God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement,
  through faith in his blood.
• . 27 Where, then, is boasting? It is excluded.
  On what principle? On that of observing the law?

  that a man is justified by faith apart from
  observing the law.

• John 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the
  Word was with God, and the Word was God. 10 He
  was in the world, and though the world was made
  through him, the world did not recognize him. 11
  He came to that which was his own, but his own
  did not receive him.

13

• 12 Yet to all who received him, to those who
  believed in his name, he gave the right to become
  children of God 13 children born not of natural
  descent but born of God.

14
Adoption is an act of God's free grace through
redemption in Christ, whereby we are received
into his family, and have a right to all the
privileges of the sons and daughters of God.
