Romans 1:17

"For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed—a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.” Spiritual Reflection: This verse is the heart of the Gospel message. Paul declares that righteousness before God comes through faith, not through human effort or law. It means that true life and salvation flow from trusting in God’s grace. The believer’s life is sustained by faith from beginning to end."
