But if, while we sought to be justified in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, is Christ a minister of sin? God forbid.

我们若求在基督里称义，却仍旧是罪人，难道基督是叫人犯罪的吗？断乎不是！

我们若求在基督里称义，自己却还被视为罪人，那么，基督是罪的用人吗？绝对不是！

我们若求在基督里称义，自己却还被视为罪人，那么，基督是罪的用人吗？绝对不是！

如果我们指望在基督里被称为义人，结果却仍是罪人，难道基督助长罪恶吗？当然不是！

如果我们寻求在基督里称义，却仍然是罪人，难道基督是使人犯罪的吗？绝对不是。

但如果我们自己寻求在基督里被称为义，却被发现还是罪人，那么，难道基督就成了罪的仆人吗？绝对不是！

我們若求在基督裏稱義，卻仍舊是罪人，難道基督是叫人犯罪的嗎？斷乎不是！

我們若求在基督裏稱義，自己卻還被視為罪人，那麼，基督是罪的用人嗎？絕對不是！

我們若求在基督裏稱義，自己卻還被視為罪人，那麼，基督是罪的用人嗎？絕對不是！

如果我們指望在基督裡被稱為義人，結果卻仍是罪人，難道基督助長罪惡嗎？當然不是！

如果我們尋求在基督裡稱義，卻仍然是罪人，難道基督是使人犯罪的嗎？絕對不是。

但倘若我們這尋求在基督裏得稱為義的人也見得自己是觸犯律法的罪人，那麼、基督是助人犯罪的僕役麼？斷乎不是。

但如果我們自己尋求在基督裡被稱為義，卻被發現還是罪人，那麼，難道基督就成了罪的僕人嗎？絕對不是！

我儕於基督而求見義、仍不免為罪人、則基督豈為罪之役乎、非也、

或曰、我恃基督而稱義、又陷乎罪、基督得毋助人為罪乎、曰、非也、

我儕賴基督求得稱義、若仍因犯律法視為罪人、則基督豈非助人犯罪乎、非也、

今如一面求成義於基督聖道之中、同時仍以律法下之罪人自居、是不啻以基督為罪階也。有是理乎？

“ But if, in seeking to be justified in Christ, we Jews find ourselves also among the sinners, doesn’t that mean that Christ promotes sin? Absolutely not!

We are seeking to be made right with God through Christ. As we do, what if we find that we who are Jews are also sinners? Does that mean that Christ causes us to sin? Certainly not!

But if, in our endeavor to be justified in Christ, we too were found to be sinners, is Christ then a servant of sin? Certainly not!

But suppose we seek to be made right with God through faith in Christ and then we are found guilty because we have abandoned the law. Would that mean Christ has led us into sin? Absolutely not!

But if we ourselves are also found to be“ sinners” while seeking to be justified by Christ, is Christ then a promoter of sin? Absolutely not!

But if, while seeking to be justified in Christ, we ourselves have also been found sinners, is Christ then a servant of sin? Far from it!

“ But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is Christ therefore a minister of sin? Certainly not!

But if we ourselves are also found to be“ sinners” while seeking to be justified by Christ, is Christ then a promoter of sin? Absolutely not!

But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners,[ is] therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid.

But if while seeking to be justified in Christ we ourselves have also been found to be sinners, is Christ then one who encourages sin? Absolutely not!

But if while we sought to be justified in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, is Christ a servant of sin? Certainly not!

What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?God forbid. We who died to sin, how shall we any longer live therein?

We being Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles,

God forbid: yea, let God be found true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy words, And mightest prevail when thou comest into judgment.

What then? That which Israel seeketh for, that he obtained not; but the election obtained it, and the rest were hardened:

a minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, not man.

but he, because he abideth for ever, hath his priesthood unchangeable.Wherefore also he is able to save to the uttermost them that draw near unto God through him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.For such a high priest became us, holy, guileless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;who needeth not daily, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people: for this he did once for all, when he offered up himself.For the law appointeth men high priests, having infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was after the law, appointeth a Son, perfected for evermore.

God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?

But when Cephas came to Antioch, I resisted him to the face, because he stood condemned.

he that doeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. To this end was the Son of God manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.Whosoever is begotten of God doeth no sin, because his seed abideth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is begotten of God.In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.

And she shall bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name JESUS; for it is he that shall save his people from their sins.

For I say that Christ hath been made a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises given unto the fathers,

What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who followed not after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith:but Israel, following after a law of righteousness, did not arrive at that law.Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by works. They stumbled at the stone of stumbling;even as it is written, Behold, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offence: And he that believeth on him shall not be put to shame.

Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could make alive, verily righteousness would have been of the law.

But if the ministration of death, written, and engraven on stones, came with glory, so that the children of Israel could not look stedfastly upon the face of Moses for the glory of his face; which glory was passing away:how shall not rather the ministration of the spirit be with glory?For if the ministration of condemnation hath glory, much rather doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.

And ye know that he was manifested to take away sins; and in him is no sin.
