Romans 4:4-8
4 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.
5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
6 Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,
7 Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. 8Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.
If you want to have a discussion about this portion of scripture, let's start by asking some questions about some of the terms and word that are used and define what they mean and how they apply. Seeing how this is roaringkitten's theme verse (v/5), let's give him the honor of starting it off. If this has been done in the past in any form, please start again for the body's sake.
