The Righteousness of God

Romans 3:21-26 is somewhat like taking off of the seemingly cold helmet of God's judgment and there finding the warm and loving arms of God! The same God who has gone on record in chapters 1-3 saying that all men are sinners and therefore are deserving of death is the same God who:

•	“So loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son...” (John 3:16).
•	“Has manifested His righteousness” to us savingly (Romans 3:21).

Now as I was studying for this sermon, I must confess that I was at somewhat of a quandary. For while the text we are approaching is magnificent and rich, it nevertheless was written with an assumed knowledge on the part of Paul regarding his readers. And for those lacking this general background, this section, though intended to clarify and edify the reader, will probably raise a certain amount of question and uncertainty.
