What does Romans say about justification?

Answered in 1 source

Romans teaches that justification is by faith, not by works of the law, emphasizing the righteousness of Christ.

In Romans 3, the Apostle Paul articulates that justification is completely rooted in God's grace and the redemptive work of Jesus Christ, rather than human works. Romans 3:28 states clearly, 'For we hold that one is justified by faith apart from works of the law.' This indicates that our righteousness before God is credited based on Christ's works and faithfulness, not our law-keeping. Justification is a legal declaration from God that we are counted righteous because of Christ's merits, which means the entire process of our salvation is dependent on Him, making it wholly secure.
