The God Who Declares the Guilty Just (Romans 3:21–26)

In this lecture, Don Carson explores the concept of God's justice and righteousness, particularly as presented in Romans 3:21-26. Carson explains that all humans are guilty before God because of their sin, and justification comes through faith, not works, which is available to all. Carson highlights that faith must be rooted in the truth of Jesus's life, death, and resurrection, and is essential for salvation, excluding any boasting of personal merit. He teaches the following: * How Romans 1 argues the universality of human guilt before God * A contrast between Paul’s view with humanity’s contemporary self-perception * The absurdity of balancing good deeds and bad deeds for justification * The heart of all evil is rebellion against God * How rejecting God leads to self-destructive behaviors * God's righteousness is provided through Christ Jesus as the propitiation for our sins * How God's justice is demonstrated both in forgiving us and punishing sin
