"To all those in Rome who are loved by God and called to be saints"

"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth."

"Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ."

"But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it."

"What then? Are we to sin because we are not under law but under grace? By no means!"

"There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus."

"Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?"

"This means that it is not the children of the flesh who are the children of God, but the children of the promise are counted as offspring."

"Therefore you have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things."

Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment.
