What does Romans 3:27 mean? →Passage Context
25Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
26To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.

29Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:
Devotional Reflection
LoveGratitude
We have no reason to brag about being saved by God. We couldn't live up to what the Law said was right. God bought our salvation when we were broken and sinful by sending Jesus and having Him pay the price for our sin. We have nothing to brag about except for how much God loves us and how much our Savior, Jesus, loved us enough to die for us.
Prayer
Thank you, Father, for saving me from what the Law says is right. Jesus, thank you for paying my sin debt. Holy Spirit, thank you for making me clean and holy. God, thank you so much for your great grace. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
