Baptism is like the first workout in your spiritual life. It can feel uncomfortable, but it is the moment where faith moves from internal belief to visible expression and where real growth begins. It is not just an obligation, but an invitation from Jesus into a deeper and more tangible relationship with Him.

The question “Why do you seek the living among the dead?” reveals our tendency to look for life in things that cannot give it because we do not fully trust Jesus’ promises. True life is found only in the risen Christ, through whom everything else in life is rightly understood.

All humanity lives under the curse of sin because no one can perfectly obey God’s law. But on the cross, Jesus became a curse for us so that through faith in Him we might be redeemed and brought into God’s blessing.

Romans Vol. 1 - Coming Under Grace

Paul confronts the deeply ingrained belief that we must contribute to our salvation by showing through Abraham and David that no one is justified by works but only by God’s grace through faith. Both the righteous and the broken are saved by trusting in Christ, whose righteousness is credited to us and whose grace removes our sin.

Romans Vol. 1 - Coming Under Grace

Romans 3:29–31 declares that there is one God and one way to be made right with Him through faith in Jesus, opening the door of salvation to anyone while leaving no room for boasting. Rather than setting aside God’s law, the gospel fulfills it completely as Jesus satisfies its demands, bears its penalty, and gives His righteousness to all who believe.

Romans Vol. 1 - Coming Under Grace

Romans 3:27–28 teaches that because salvation is entirely by God’s grace through faith in Christ, all human boasting is excluded. We contribute nothing that earns our salvation since it is a gift of God, and the faith that receives this gift produces a changed life that bears fruit.

Romans Vol. 1 - Coming Under Grace

Romans 3:24–26 shows that the gift of salvation is not a single benefit but a rich work of God that includes justification, redemption, and propitiation, all accomplished through the death of Christ. Through Jesus’ sacrifice, God both satisfies His righteous justice and freely declares sinners righteous by grace through faith.

Romans Vol. 1 - Coming Under Grace

Paul says there is no distinction, for all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, and no one can rescue themselves or claim a better standing before him. Our only hope is grace through Jesus Christ, received by faith, because the ground is level at the foot of the cross.

Romans Vol. 1 - Coming Under Grace

Everyone lives with a relentless quest to be righteous and measure up to the scorecards of life, yet Romans 1–3 shows that no one can meet God’s standard and all stand condemned. But now God has revealed a righteousness apart from the law through faith in Jesus Christ, offering as a gift what we could never achieve.

Romans Vol. 1 - Coming Under Grace

Before we can understand the solution Paul gives in Romans 3:21 and following, we must agree with his diagnosis in Romans 1:18–3:20 that our deepest problem is sin that makes us accountable to a holy God and subject to His wrath. Until we see that every mouth is stopped and the whole world stands guilty before Him, we will not grasp why the gospel is truly good news or why faith in Christ is our only hope.
