For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: "The righteous will live by faith."
a righteousness from God is revealed
Romans 3:21 But now a righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify.
Philippians 3:8-9 What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ--the righteousness that comes from God and is by faith.
a righteousness that is by faith
Romans 9:30 What then shall we say? That the Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have obtained it, a righteousness that is by faith; ...
The righteous will live by faith
Habakkuk 2:4 "See, he is puffed up; his desires are not upright--but the righteous will live by his faith-- ...
Galatians 3:11 Clearly no one is justified before God by the law, because "The righteous will live by faith."
Hebrews 10:38-39 "But my righteous one will live by faith. And if he shrinks back, I will not be pleased with him." But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who believe and are saved.
