Ps1:6 For the LORD knoweth
the way of the righteous:
but the way of the ungodly
shall perish.

Lk18:9 And he spake this parable
unto certain which trusted in
themselves that they were righteous,
and despised others:
10 Two men went up into
the temple to pray;
the one a Pharisee,
and the other a publican.
11 The Pharisee stood and prayed
thus with himself, God, I thank thee,
that I am not as other men are,
extortioners, unjust, adulterers,
or even as this publican.
12 I fast twice in the week,
I give tithes of all that I possess.
13 And the publican, standing afar off,
would not lift up so much
as his eyes unto heaven,
but smote upon his breast,
saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.
14 I tell you, this man went down
to his house justified
rather than the other:
for every one that exalteth himself
shall be abased; and he that humbleth
himself shall be exalted.

Rm3:21 But now the righteousness
of God without the law is manifested,
being witnessed by the
law and the prophets;
22 Even the righteousness of God
which is by faith of Jesus Christ
unto all and upon all them that believe:
for there is no difference:
23 For all have sinned, and come
short of the glory of God;
24 Being justified freely by his grace
through the redemption
that is in Christ Jesus:
25 Whom God hath set forth to be
a propitiation through faith in his blood,
to declare his righteousness
for the remission of sins that are past,
through the forbearance of God;
26 To declare, I say, at this time
his righteousness:
that he might be just,
and the justifier of him
which believeth in Jesus.
27 Where is boasting then?
It is excluded. By what law?
of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
28 Therefore we conclude that a man
is justified by faith without
the deeds of the law.
29 Is he the God of the Jews only?
is he not also of the Gentiles?
Yes, of the Gentiles also:
30 Seeing it is one God,
which shall justify
the circumcision by faith,
and uncircumcision through faith.
31 Do we then make void the law
through faith? God forbid:
yea, we establish the law.

Rm5:15 But not as the offence,
so also is the free gift.
For if through the offence of one
many be dead, much more
the grace of God, and the gift
by grace, which is by one man,
Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.
16 And not as it was by one that sinned,
so is the gift:for the judgment
was by one to condemnation,
but the free gift is of many
offences unto justification.
17 For if by one man's offence
death reigned by one;
much more they which receive
abundance of grace and
of the gift of righteousness
shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.
