What must a person do to be saved? Paul, with Israel in mind, answers that question. Israel was pursuing righteousness by works, and would not subject themselves to God's righteousness. Paul teaches that people must abandon that approach, and instead pursue it by faith: faith in what Christ has accomplished, faith in the risen Lord, faith from the heart, and faith that expresses itself in confession.
