2 Much in every way! Chiefly because the oracles of God were entrusted to them.
3 What if some did not believe? Would their unbelief nullify the faithfulness of God?
4 God forbid! Let God be true, and every man a liar. As it is written: “That You may be justified in Your words,and may prevail in Your judging.”
5 But if our unrighteousness demonstrates the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous in taking vengeance? (I am speaking in human terms.)
6 God forbid! For then how could God judge the world?
7 If through my lie the truth of God has abounded more to His glory, why am I still being judged as a sinner?
8 Why not rather say, “Let us do evil that good may come,” as we are slanderously accused and as some claim that we say? Their condemnation is just.
