Galatians, 3

8. The Scriptures foresaw that by the way of faith, God would give true righteousness to the non-Jewish nations. For God's promise to Abraham was this: In you shall all the nations be blessed.

Stihovi vezani uz Galatians, 3:

Galatians 3 addresses the theme of justification by faith as opposed to justification by the works of the law. Paul argues that faith in Christ is the only means of being justified before God and that the law was given to show the need for this faith. The verses related to this theme are:

Romans 3:28 - "We therefore conclude that man is justified by faith, regardless of the works of the law." This verse summarizes Paul's central argument in Galatians 3 that justification comes only by faith and not by the works of the law.

Ephesians 2:8-9 - "For by grace you are saved, through faith; and it does not come from you; it is the gift of God. It does not come from the works, so that no one can glornize." This verse highlights God's grace as the source of salvation and emphasizes that faith is the means by which we receive this grace, not the works of the law.

Romans 4:3-5 - "For what does Scripture say? Abraham believed in God, and this was imputed to him as justice. Now, the one who does any work is not imputed to him the reward according to grace, but according to debt; but; , to the one who does not practice, but believes in the one who justifies the wicked, his faith is imputed to him as justice. " This verse uses Abraham's example to show that justification comes by faith and not by works, for Abraham's faith was imputed as justice.

Galatians 2:16 - "Knowing that man is not justified by the works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ, we also have believed in Jesus Christ, to be justified by faith in Christ, and not by the works of the law; No works of the law no flesh will be justified. " This verse reinforces Paul's argument in Galatians 3 that justification comes only by faith and not by the works of the law.

Philippians 3:9 - "And being found in Him, not having my righteousness that comes from the law, but that comes by faith in Christ, namely the righteousness that comes from God by faith." This verse points out that justice does not come through the works of the law, but only by faith in Christ.





“Não queremos aceitar o fato de que o sofrimento é necessário para nossa alma e de que a cruz deve ser o nosso pão cotidiano. Assim como o corpo precisa ser nutrido, também a alma precisa da cruz, dia a dia, para purificá-la e desapegá-la das coisas terrenas. Não queremos entender que Deus não quer e não pode salvar-nos nem santificar-nos sem a cruz. Quanto mais Ele chama uma alma a Si, mais a santifica por meio da cruz.” São Padre Pio de Pietrelcina
