Righteousness According to Romans.
Description Read the entire letter to the Romans in a standard translation of the Bible Use Bible Study Tools at Bible Study Tools to find one passage in Romans related to “righteousness.” You can search for any of these terms: righteous, righteousness, justify, or justification. Even though these seem to be two word families in English, they are all translations of the same word family in Greek (the language of all of the New Testament writings). Enter the word or words that you want to search in the “Search the Bible” box, and click “Find it!” On the results page after a short paragraph you will see a button marked “Filter” with a little funnel icon next to this. Click on that button and then find the book that we are studying this week, and you will get all the relevant verses from that book. The first paragraph should explain the passage that you selected from your word search in #4. Focus on the meaning of the term righteousness/justification and its function in the passage. The second paragraph should connect this particular use of righteousness/justification to the concept of salvation. What does righteousness have to do with salvation in this passage? You are also encouraged to incorporate material from the readings and lecture. FYI: You can google Bible Study Tools to look up the information
