How God Demonstrated His LOVE. Romans 3:21-26Paul Shows us how righteousness is now revealed. God has "now" revealed how man is to get right with Him. hundreds and hundreds of years ago, God had patience in that He put up with man's attempts at self-righteousness through the law. But now the period of God's righteousness has come—the righteousness that is found in God's very own Son. The law does not allow disobedience; it requires obedience. Anyone who disobeys the law becomes a lawbreaker, a transgressor. He is guilty and to be condemned. The law does not have the power to make a person obedient. It does not have the power to prevent a person from disobeying. It only shows a person's disobedience and inadequate strength to be obedient. It only reveals a person's inability to secure any righteousness whatsoever by self-effort. Therefore, if God was to have men living in His presence, He had to provide a righteousness "without law." There had to be a righteousness that had nothing to do with law. God's righteousness for man was foretold by the Old Testament (prophets and law). To understand why Jesus had to die, you have to look at all the explanations that the Bible gives, not just one or the other. You've got to get the rest of the story. The death of Christ is so significant and so complex you can't describe it in one phrase. There are many different explanations from roman How God demonstrated his Love.
