As recorded at Romans 3: 23, 24, Paul thus told anointed Christians: “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. ”
Sellepärast lausus Paulus võitud kristlastele sõnad, mis on kirjas Roomlastele 3: 23, 24: „Kõik on pattu teinud ja on Jumala aust ilma ning mõistetakse õigeks täiesti muidu, tema armust, lunastuse läbi, mis on Kristuses Jeesuses. ”
