Romans 3:6-8

Expanded Bible

⁶ ·No [Absolutely not; May it never be; v. 4]! If God could not punish us, ·he could not [^Lhow could he…?] judge the world.

⁷ A person might say, “When I lie, it really ·gives him [^Lincreases his] glory, because my lie shows God’s truth. So why am I ·judged [condemned as] a sinner?” ⁸ It would be the same to say, “We should do evil so that good will come.” Some people ·find fault with [slander] us and say we teach this, but ·they are wrong and deserve the punishment they will receive [^Ltheir condemnation is just].
