Let God Be Just (Romans 3:5-8)

Sermon Notes

Proposition: In Romans 3:5-8, we see a third misconception that can arise when a healthy dose of the doctrine of sin is applied to Jews who do not believe in the Messiah.

Review of the first two objections:

1. Then there is no value in being a Jew (3:1-2)
2. Then God must not be faithful (3:3-4)

Final objection:

3. Then God must not be just (3:5-8)

a. Is God really just? (v. 6)
b. Am I really a sinner? (v. 7)
c. Then we might as well do evil (v. 8)
