21 But now apart from the Law the righteousness of God has been revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets.

22 God makes people righteous through their active faith in Jesus Christ. God does this to all who believe in Christ, because there is no difference at all.

23 For all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God

24 being justified freely by his grace as a gift through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.
