God puts people right through their faith in Jesus Christ. God does this to all who believe in Christ, because there is no difference at all:

Or is God the God of the Jews only? Is he not the God of the Gentiles also? Of course he is.

God is one, and he will put the Jews right with himself on the basis of their faith, and will put the Gentiles right through their faith.

He was circumcised later, and his circumcision was a sign to show that because of his faith God had accepted him as righteous before he had been circumcised. And so Abraham is the spiritual father of all who believe in God and are accepted as righteous by him, even though they are not circumcised.

He is also the father of those who are circumcised, that is, of those who, in addition to being circumcised, also live the same life of faith that our father Abraham lived before he was circumcised.

For we are the people he called, not only from among the Jews but also from among the Gentiles.

Peter began to speak: "I now realize that it is true that God treats everyone on the same basis.

Those who fear him and do what is right are acceptable to him, no matter what race they belong to.

And God, who knows the thoughts of everyone, showed his approval of the Gentiles by giving the Holy Spirit to them, just as he had to us.

He made no difference between us and them; he forgave their sins because they believed.

So there is no difference between Jews and Gentiles, between slaves and free people, between men and women; you are all one in union with Christ Jesus.

It is through Christ that all of us, Jews and Gentiles, are able to come in the one Spirit into the presence of the Father.

You, too, are built upon the foundation laid by the apostles and prophets, the cornerstone being Christ Jesus himself.

In union with him you too are being built together with all the others into a place where God lives through his Spirit.

The secret is that by means of the gospel the Gentiles have a part with the Jews in God's blessings; they are members of the same body and share in the promise that God made through Christ Jesus.

As a result, there is no longer any distinction between Gentiles and Jews, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarians, savages, slaves, and free, but Christ is all, Christ is in all.

For Christ died and rose to life in order to be the Lord of the living and of the dead.

And again, Isaiah says, "A descendant of Jesse will appear; he will come to rule the Gentiles, and they will put their hope in him."

You know the message he sent to the people of Israel, proclaiming the Good News of peace through Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all.

The first Adam, made of earth, came from the earth; the second Adam came from heaven.

and all will openly proclaim that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

For there is one God, and there is one who brings God and human beings together, the man Christ Jesus,

They will fight against the Lamb; but the Lamb, together with his called, chosen, and faithful followers, will defeat them, because he is Lord of lords and King of kings."

On his robe and on his thigh was written the name: "King of kings and Lord of lords."

Or perhaps you despise his great kindness, tolerance, and patience. Surely you know that God is kind, because he is trying to lead you to repent.

And he also wanted to reveal his abundant glory, which was poured out on us who are the objects of his mercy, those of us whom he has prepared to receive his glory.

You know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ; rich as he was, he made himself poor for your sake, in order to make you rich by means of his poverty.

For by the blood of Christ we are set free, that is, our sins are forgiven. How great is the grace of God,

But God's mercy is so abundant, and his love for us is so great,

He did this to demonstrate for all time to come the extraordinary greatness of his grace in the love he showed us in Christ Jesus.

I am less than the least of all God's people; yet God gave me this privilege of taking to the Gentiles the Good News about the infinite riches of Christ,

I ask God from the wealth of his glory to give you power through his Spirit to be strong in your inner selves,

And with all his abundant wealth through Christ Jesus, my God will supply all your needs.

God's plan is to make known his secret to his people, this rich and glorious secret which he has for all peoples. And the secret is that Christ is in you, which means that you will share in the glory of God.

I do this in order that they may be filled with courage and may be drawn together in love, and so have the full wealth of assurance which true understanding brings. In this way they will know God's secret, which is Christ himself.

He is the key that opens all the hidden treasures of God's wisdom and knowledge.

You are good to us and forgiving, full of constant love for all who pray to you.

He is near to those who call to him, who call to him with sincerity.

Turn to the LORD and pray to him, now that he is near.

And he has come to Damascus with authority from the chief priests to arrest all who worship you."

To the church of God which is in Corinth, to all who are called to be God's holy people, who belong to him in union with Christ Jesus, together with all people everywhere who worship our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours:
