\v 19 What God is like is plain to all, because God himself has revealed this to everyone.

\v 20 People cannot actually see with their eyes what God is like. But ever since he created the world, the things in it make us understand things about him—for example, he has always been able to do powerful things. Another example is that everyone knows that he is completely different from all that he has created. So no one is able to say truthfully, "We never knew about God."

\v 21 Although they knew what God is like, they did not honor him as God, nor did they thank him for what he had done. But instead, they began to think foolish things about him, and they were no longer able to understand what he wanted them to know about himself.

\v 1 Someone might say then, "If that is true, then it appears that there is no advantage in being Jewish over not being Jewish, and being circumcised does not benefit us Jews at all."
\v 2 But I tell you that being Jews has many benefits; first of all, because it was to their ancestors that God spoke his words, words that show us who he is.

\v 3 Does the faithlessness of the Jews mean that God will not bless as he promised that he would?
\v 4 No, it certainly does not mean that! God always does what he has promised, even though people do not. All those who accuse God of not keeping his promises to us Jews are very mistaken. King David wrote about this:

\v 21 When God declares us right with him, it does not depend on our obeying the law that he gave Moses. It was written about in the laws and by the prophets that God forgives our sins in a different way.
\v 21 But God has shown that when he declares us right with him, it does not depend on our obeying the law that he gave Moses. This was written about in the law and by the prophets.
\v 22 God erases the record of our sins because we trust in what Jesus Christ has done for us. God does this for every person who trusts in Christ. There is no difference.

\v 27 It is not at all because we obey the laws of Moses that God erases the record of our sins. So there is no way that we can boast that God favors us because we obeyed those laws. Instead, it is because we believe in Christ that God erases the record of our sins.
\v 27 Why, then should we boast about how good we are? There is no reason to boast. Are we forgiven because we obey the law of God? Certainly not, we all have committed sins. But we can boast about God's gift of faith, and by that gift we trust in God who forgives all our sins.
\v 28 So it is clear that God makes someone right with himself if that person trusts in Christ—not if that person obeys the law.

\v 1 Abraham is the revered ancestor of us Jews. So think about what we can learn from what happened to Abraham.
\v 1 Think about what our ancestor Abraham learned about God declaring people right with him.
\v 2 If it was because of Abraham's doing good things that God put him right with himself, Abraham would then have had reason to boast about that to people (but, even so, he would not have had any reason to boast to God about it).
\v 3 Remember that in the scriptures it is written that Abraham believed what God promised to do for him, and that for this reason, God considered Abraham to be right with himself.

\v 11 God commanded that Abraham be circumcised many years after God had already accepted him. Circumcision was the mark that showed that Abraham already was right with God. So we can learn here that God considered Abraham to be the ancestor of everyone who trusts in him, even of those who are not circumcised. In this way, God considers all these people to be right with himself.
\v 12 Likewise, God considers Abraham to be the ancestor of all us who are true Jews, that is, all Jews who not only have the mark of circumcision on their bodies, but—much more importantly—who live like our ancestor Abraham did before he was circumcised, when he was simply trusting in God.

\v 15 Remember that in reality, God says in his law that he will punish anyone who does not perfectly obey it. Also remember, however, that for people who have no law, it is impossible to disobey it.

\v 16 So it is because we trust in God that we will receive the things that he has promised to us as a gift, because he is very kind. He gives these things to everyone whom he regards as a true descendant of Abraham—those who have God's law and trust him, and also those who do not have God's laws but who trust in him as Abraham did. For God regards Abraham as the true ancestor of all of us believers.
\v 16 So it is those who trust in God who will receive the things that God has promised. Those things are gifts from God. He will surely give them to everyone whom he regards as a true descendant of Abraham--those who follow God's law, and also those who do not have God's laws but who trust in him as Abraham did, because Abraham is the father of all who trust in God.
\v 17 This is what God said to Abraham in the scriptures: "I will make you the ancestor of many nations." Abraham received this directly from God, who raises dead people to life and creates things out of nothing.

\v 14 But we know that, from the time when Adam lived until the time when Moses lived, all people sinned, and they died as a consequence. Everyone died, even those who did not break a direct command from God as Adam did. Adam's sin affected all people, just like what Christ did, the one who came later, also affects all people.
\v 15 But the gift that God gives is not like Adam's sin. Because Adam sinned, everybody dies. But because another single man, Jesus Christ, died for us all, God kindly offers us this gift of everlasting life, although we do not deserve it.

\v 16 And there is another way in which God's gift is different from Adam's sin. Because Adam sinned, all people after him have sinned, and so God declared that all people deserve to be punished. But as a kind gift, God offers to put us right with himself.

\v 17 All people die because of what one man, Adam, did. But now many of us experience that God has kindly given us a very great gift—which we do not deserve—and he has put us right with himself. It is also very certain that we will rule with Christ in heaven. This will happen because of what one man, Jesus Christ, did for us.
