Romans 5:8 - But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—Jews or Greeks, slaves or free—and all … “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9) God’s grace provided righteousness for sinners.
