1. The good news: Righteousness from God for all who believe
Romans

2. Romans 8
It is one of the brightest gems of all. Someone has said that in the whole of the Scriptures the brightest and the most lustrous and flashing stone, or collection of stones, is this Epistle to the Romans, and that of these Chapter 8 is the brightest gem in the cluster. The most moving chapter is this chapter – Martin Lloyd-Jones

3. Rom 1:17 For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: "The righteous will live by faith."

4. Romans 1:18-20
The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness,
since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.
For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.

5. Romans 1:29-32
They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

6. Romans 2:1-3
You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge the other, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things.
So when you, a mere man, pass judgment on them and yet do the same things, do you think you will escape God's judgment?

7. Romans 2:12 and 16
All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law. This will take place on the day when God will judge men's secrets through Jesus Christ, as my gospel declares.

8. Romans 3:19-20
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 held accountable to God.
Therefore no one will be declared righteous in his sight by observing the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of sin.

9. Romans 3:21
But now a righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify.

10. Romans 8:1
There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

11. There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
Why? Because those who are in Christ Jesus:
have been set free from the law, (Chapter 7)
set free from sin, (Chapter 6)
and made at peace with God, since we have obtained Christ’s righteousness, (Chapter 5)
which was credited to us by God’s grace which we received by faith. (Chapter 4)
This is the result of righteousness from God (Chapter 3)

12. Romans 3:21-27 & Romans 8:1
But now a righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify.
This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.
God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood. He did this to demonstrate his justice, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished—
he did it to demonstrate his justice at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.
Where, then, is boasting? It is excluded. On what principle? On that of observing the law? No, but on that of faith. …
There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
