... (Rom. 3:24-25). He does justify those who have faith in him. And it is true that one is justified apart from works of the Law (Rom. 3:28).

But those are works outside the realm of grace (whether dependence on circumcision, Rom. 3:28, Gal. 2:16), or even attempting to keep the law on ones own power (Rom. 3:19-20, Gal. 3:10).

...ates that salvation is entirely apart from works: for we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the Law (Romans 3:28). But the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is reckoned as righteousness (4:5). words in Romans 2:6,...... didnt see Rhodes in his analysis of Rom. 3:28 in our earlier analysis go to Romans 2:6-7 to say that since Romans 2 says this, Romans 3:28 cant mean that!!! The Protestants, or at least Rhodes first response to Romans 2, is thus, to divert from the text and go to a whole other passage......text and go to a whole other passage just so Romans 2 cant mean what it says. Of course, as shown in our previous discussion of Romans 3:28, Paul only excludes from justification works of the law. In Rom. 3:19-20 Paul excludes the whole world, which thus would include Gentiles, from sa......m salvation via works of the law. Thus, Doing the law, even the commandments, does not suffice for salvation, outside grace. In Romans 3:28, the works of the law do focus on the Jewish law. Either way, whether it is circumcision, or whether it is the commandments in and of themselves, ......, whether it is circumcision, or whether it is the commandments in and of themselves, do not suffice for salvation. However, in Romans 3:28, he does not excludes works of charity from salvation. Those works that are done in grace are not excluded from salvation. Now, in Romans 4, he do...... work, the reward of eternal salvation. Rhodes proceeds to ask the following questions: _ - 1) Would you please read aloud from Romans 3:28 and then Romans 4:5 (p. 157)? - 2) What do these verses say about the relationship of works to salvation? - 3) Since Scripture does not contradict......t contradict itself, does it make sense to you that however Romans 2:6-8 is interpreted, it must be done so that it agrees with Romans 3:28 and 4:5? - 4) Did you know that Paul talks about salvation by grace with no works involved in Ephesians 2:8, 9, and then in verse 10 speaks of wor......th here and in my previous examination of him on justification. - 2) They say that works of the law do not justify (Rom. 3:28). Romans 3:28 did not exclude works of love from salvation. Romans 4:2-8 shows us that justification is a process, with the examples of Abraham and David that P......ns 4 shows that it is his graciousness that provides us salvation, exactly as the Catholic Church teaches. - 3) Sure, of course Romans 3:28 and Romans 4:5 must be harmonized with Romans 2:6-8. However, in ones analysis of Romans 2:6-8, one does not start off at Romans 3:28, as Rhodes d...... 3:28 and Romans 4:5 must be harmonized with Romans 2:6-8. However, in ones analysis of Romans 2:6-8, one does not start off at Romans 3:28, as Rhodes did.

The diversion to other passages in Romans by Rhodes showed a misreading of those passages (Rom. 3:28, 4:3-5) do not cancel out Romans 2:4-13.

...passages that preceded them. The Apostle Paul had just said that we are all justified by faith and not by the works of the law (Rom. 3:28); therefore logically an example would be in order of someone justified apart from the Law. After all, the Apostle then says that God is the God of ......22). The entire purpose of this story is to highlight someone who was justified by faith "apart from the works of the law" (cf. Rom. 3:28). There is no notion of sola fide anywhere in Romans 4 except by the twisting of the Apostle Paul's writings by the unlearned and unstable such as F... - Item #0235

...t justify in Romans 11:6 is ignoring the context. Any kind of work where one attempts to 'earn' salvation from God (Eph. 2:8-9, Rom. 3:28, Rom. 4:2, Tit. 3:3-5), etc. is not salvific. The Catholic Church teaches that no one can earn salvation. Nonetheless, once within Gods grace, works......aith is reckoned as righteousness (Rom. 4:5). In another passage we see "man is justified by faith apart from works of the Law (Rom. 3:28). Those who believe they can gain a right standing before God with their works and their own righteousness do not know God or His Gospel (Rom. 10:1-...... the law' will be justified (Rom. 2:13). Now, in reference to be justified according to works of the law (Dwayne's reference to Rom. 3:28), we see here that Paul is not excluding all works, but 'works of the law'. Sometimes he speaks of circumcision as not being necessary, as the immed......ding all works, but 'works of the law'. Sometimes he speaks of circumcision as not being necessary, as the immediate context of Rom. 3:28 shows. In Romans 4, he speaks of works that attempt to obligate God, where we attempt to make him a debtor. Works of the law, thus is any law, eithe... - Item #0236

In fact Rom. 3:28 says not Faith Alone but Faith apart from Works of the Law. In order for you to make such an assertion, you must assert that works of the Law means ...... must assert that works of the Law means any type of obedience under God's grace. There is no question that works of the law in Rom. 3:28 are contrasted to grace. An initial problem is that Faith alone excludes anything from being added to faith, while Faith apart from works of the law......wer, and other things such as circumcision (an important part of the Mosaic Law). First, if we examine the immediate context of Rom. 3:28 we see circumcison (part of the Mosaic law) coming into play, though it is not exclusively this , as will be seen later: Circumcision is part of wha......r example that the doers of the law will be justified (Rom. 2:13). How is this different from the Works of the Law mentioned in Rom. 3:28? It is different because it is under the auspices of grace. The background to Rom. 2:5-13 shows this.
