Romans Chapter 3 Vs. 29

 

The Righteousness of God Through Faith

Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also: Rom 3:29

Is he the... Questions 24-26. Next, Rom. 4:1. These are answered in Rom. 3:29-31.

The next two questions cover the same issue of Jewish distinctiveness from a different angle. Because the Gentiles worshiped false gods through idols, the Jews concluded that Yahweh, the true and living God (Jer. 10:10), was the God of Jews only. That was true in the sense that the Jews were the only people who acknowledged and worshiped Yahweh (except for a few proselyte Gentiles who joined with Judaism). But in reality Yahweh, as the Creator and Sovereign of all people, is the God of all people. Before God called Abraham and his descendants in the nation Israel to be His Chosen People (Deut. 7:6) God dealt equally with all people.

God was the Creator of all mankind. Mankind both Jew and Gentile was made in the image of God. We are His workmanship. All He created was for the benefit of mankind. He prepared the world for man. God is God of all. We are all part of God’s family. There is one God and Father of us all.

Ephesians 4:6: “One God and Father of all, who [is] above all, and through all, and in you all.”
