The apostle Paul wrote: “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and it is as a free gift that they are being declared righteous by his undeserved kindness through the release by the ransom paid by Christ Jesus. God set him forth as an offering for propitiation through faith in his blood. ” ​ — Romans 3: 23 - 26.
Apostel Paulus kirjutas: „Kõik on pattu teinud ja on Jumala aust ilma ning mõistetakse õigeks täiesti muidu, tema armust, lunastuse läbi, mis on Kristuses Jeesuses, kelle Jumal on seadnud lepitusvahendiks usu kaudu tema veres. ” — Roomlastele 3: 23 — 26.
