Righteousness for the Unrighteous
Romans 3:21-26
Main Point: God upholds his own righteousness even while saving sinners, not by simply winking at sin, but through Christ’s work of propitiation, which takes away all of mankind’s grounds for pride or boasting.

2. How Righteousness is Appropriated (faith) (3:25a)
