But faith’s way of getting right with God says,“ Don’t say in your heart,‘ Who will go up to heaven?’( to bring Christ down to earth).

惟有出于信心的义如此说：“你不要心里说：谁要升到天上去呢？（就是要领下基督来；）

但出于信的义却如此说：“你不要心里说：谁要升到天上去呢？（就是说，把基督领下来。）

但出于信的义却如此说：“你不要心里说：谁要升到天上去呢？（就是说，把基督领下来。）

但是论到以信心为基础的义，圣经上说：“不要心里说，‘谁要升到天上去呢？’意思是谁要把基督领下来，

但那出于信心的义却这样说：“你心里不要说：‘谁要升到天上去呢？’（就是要把基督领下来，）

而有关本于信的义，却这样吩咐：“你心里不用说：谁要升到天上去？”——这意思是要把基督带下来；

惟有出於信心的義如此說：「你不要心裏說：誰要升到天上去呢？（就是要領下基督來；）

但出於信的義卻如此說：「你不要心裏說：誰要升到天上去呢？（就是說，把基督領下來。）

但出於信的義卻如此說：「你不要心裏說：誰要升到天上去呢？（就是說，把基督領下來。）

但是論到以信心為基礎的義，聖經上說：「不要心裡說，『誰要升到天上去呢？』意思是誰要把基督領下來，

但那出於信心的義卻這樣說：“你心裡不要說：‘誰要升到天上去呢？’（就是要把基督領下來，）

但那本着信的義卻是這樣說的：『你不要心裏說：「誰要升上天去，（這就是說，誰要把基督領下來）呢？」

而有關本於信的義，卻這樣吩咐：「你心裡不用說：誰要升到天上去？」——這意思是要把基督帶下來；

但由信之義則曰、爾勿意謂誰升於天、即言攜基督而下也、

在言以信稱義者、曰、勿意謂誰能昇天堂耶、蓋言由天而降基督、

惟由信之義如斯云、勿心內曰、孰能升天、言使基督降下、

而因信成義之道則云：『毋私心妄想、誰能登天、以降基督於人間？

But the righteousness that is by faith says:“ Do not say in your heart,‘ Who will ascend into heaven?’”( that is, to bring Christ down)

But the way to do what God requires must begin by having faith in him. Scripture says,“ Do not say in your heart,‘ Who will go up into heaven?’ ”( Deuteronomy 30:12) That means to go up into heaven and bring Christ down.

But the righteousness based on faith says,“ Do not say in your heart,‘ Who will ascend into heaven?’”( that is, to bring Christ down)

But the righteousness that comes from faith speaks like this: Do not say in your heart,“ Who will go up to heaven?” that is, to bring Christ down

But the righteousness based on faith speaks as follows:“ Do not say in your heart,‘ Who will go up into heaven?’( that is, to bring Christ down),

But the righteousness of faith speaks in this way,“ Do not say in your heart,‘ Who will ascend into heaven?’”( that is, to bring Christ down from above)

But the righteousness which is of faith saith thus, Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend into heaven?( that is, to bring Christ down:)

But the righteousness that comes from faith speaks like this: Do not say in your heart,“ Who will go up to heaven?” that is, to bring Christ down

But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven?( that is, to bring Christ down[ from above]:)

But the righteousness that is by faith says:“ Do not say in your heart,‘ Who will ascend into heaven?’”( that is, to bring Christ down)

But the righteousness which is of faith says this,“ Don’t say in your heart,‘ Who will ascend into heaven?’( that is, to bring Christ down);

“ This command I am giving you today is not too difficult for you, and it is not beyond your reach.It is not kept in heaven, so distant that you must ask,‘ Who will go up to heaven and bring it down so we can hear it and obey?’It is not kept beyond the sea, so far away that you must ask,‘ Who will cross the sea to bring it to us so we can hear it and obey?’No, the message is very close at hand; it is on your lips and in your heart so that you can obey it.

That is why the Scriptures say,“ When he ascended to the heights, he led a crowd of captives and gave gifts to his people.”Notice that it says“ he ascended.” This clearly means that Christ also descended to our lowly world.And the same one who descended is the one who ascended higher than all the heavens, so that he might fill the entire universe with himself.

But if you don’t believe me when I tell you about earthly things, how can you possibly believe if I tell you about heavenly things?No one has ever gone to heaven and returned. But the Son of Man has come down from heaven.

Who but God goes up to heaven and comes back down? Who holds the wind in his fists? Who wraps up the oceans in his cloak? Who has created the whole wide world? What is his name— and his son’s name? Tell me if you know!

Anyone who eats the bread from heaven, however, will never die.I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Anyone who eats this bread will live forever; and this bread, which I will offer so the world may live, is my flesh.”

It was by faith that Noah built a large boat to save his family from the flood. He obeyed God, who warned him about things that had never happened before. By his faith Noah condemned the rest of the world, and he received the righteousness that comes by faith.

and become one with him. I no longer count on my own righteousness through obeying the law; rather, I become righteous through faith in Christ. For God’s way of making us right with himself depends on faith.

For I have come down from heaven to do the will of God who sent me, not to do my own will.

The true bread of God is the one who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.”

For God presented Jesus as the sacrifice for sin. People are made right with God when they believe that Jesus sacrificed his life, shedding his blood. This sacrifice shows that God was being fair when he held back and did not punish those who sinned in times past,

The Son radiates God’s own glory and expresses the very character of God, and he sustains everything by the mighty power of his command. When he had cleansed us from our sins, he sat down in the place of honor at the right hand of the majestic God in heaven.

Clearly, God’s promise to give the whole earth to Abraham and his descendants was based not on his obedience to God’s law, but on a right relationship with God that comes by faith.

I am the true bread that came down from heaven. Anyone who eats this bread will not die as your ancestors did( even though they ate the manna) but will live forever.”

We are made right with God by placing our faith in Jesus Christ. And this is true for everyone who believes, no matter who we are.

What does all this mean? Even though the Gentiles were not trying to follow God’s standards, they were made right with God. And it was by faith that this took place.But the people of Israel, who tried so hard to get right with God by keeping the law, never succeeded.
