About this listen

If Romans 1 and 2 build the case against humanity, Romans 3 delivers the verdict — and then immediately offers the pardon.

Paul opens with a question the Jewish believer would naturally ask: if everyone is under judgment, does that mean God's promises to Israel have failed? His answer cuts to the heart of who God is. God's faithfulness doesn't rise or fall on human faithfulness. Let God be true though every man a liar.

In this episode, Pastor Randy Johnson works through Romans 3:1-26, tracing Paul's argument from the faithlessness of man to the unshakeable character of God. He then unleashes one of the most important passages in all of Scripture — none is righteous, not one — before pivoting to the verse that changes everything.

All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift.

That word "gift" is the hinge point of the entire letter. This episode unpacks what it means that justification cannot be earned, only received — and why Jesus as propitiation satisfies both the justice and the mercy of God simultaneously.
