經上說甚麼呢？「亞伯拉罕信了神，這就算他為義。」做工的得工資不算是恩典，而是應得的；但那不做工的，只信那位稱不敬虔之人為義的，他的信就算為義。正如大衛稱那在行為之外蒙神算為義的人是有福的：

他和工人講定一天一個銀幣，就打發他們進葡萄園去。

約在下午五點鐘出去，他看見還有人站在那裏，就問他們：『你們為甚麼整天在這裏閒站呢？』他們說：『因為沒有人雇我們。』他說：『你們也進葡萄園去。』

而且加添了律法，使得過犯增加，只是罪在哪裏增加，恩典就在哪裏越發豐盛了。所以，正如罪藉着死掌權；照樣，恩典也藉着義掌權，使人因我們的主耶穌基督得永生。

而且我們的主的恩典格外豐盛，使我在基督耶穌裏有信心和愛心。這話可信，值得完全接受：「基督耶穌到世上來是要拯救罪人」，而在罪人中我是個罪魁。然而，我蒙了憐憫，好讓基督耶穌在我這罪魁身上顯明他完全的忍耐，給後來信他得永生的人做榜樣。

你們得救是本乎恩，也因着信；這並不是出於自己，而是神所賜的；也不是出於行為，免得有人自誇。我們是他所造之物，在基督耶穌裏創造的，為要使我們行善，就是神早已預備好要我們做的。

另一個就應聲責備他，說：「你是一樣受刑的，還不怕神嗎？我們是應得的，因為我們是自作自受，但這個人沒有做過一件不對的事。」他對耶穌說：「耶穌啊，你進入你國的時候，求你記念我。」耶穌對他說：「我實在告訴你，今日你要同我在樂園裏了。」

使他榮耀的恩典得到稱讚；這恩典是他在愛子裏白白賜給我們的。我們藉着這愛子的血得蒙救贖，過犯得以赦免，這是照他豐富的恩典，充充足足地賞給我們的。他以諸般的智慧聰明，
