Romans 3:20-22

EasyEnglish Bible

²⁰ God's Law shows people clearly that they have done wrong things. Nobody can become right with God because they obey that Law.

How God accepts people

²¹ But now we know how to become right with God. God has shown us the way that he will accept people as right with himself. This way is not part of the Law that he gave to Moses. But God's Law and the messages of his prophets have told us about it. ²² God accepts people as right with himself because Jesus Christ did what God wanted. God accepts every person who believes in Christ. It is the same way for everyone, whether they are Jews or Gentiles.
