How can I gain God's approval?

Romans 3:21-31 emphasizes that righteousness is obtained through faith in Jesus Christ, distinct from adherence to the law. The passage underscores that all, regardless of their background, can be justified by faith, as everyone falls short of God's glory. Paul asserts that faith does not nullify the law but establishes it, highlighting the transformative power of belief in Christ for salvation. According to Romans 3:21-31, gaining God's approval is not achieved through adherence to the law but through faith in Jesus Christ. The key is to trust in Christ's redemptive work, as all fall short of God's standards. By embracing faith in Christ, one can receive justification and approval from God, irrespective of personal shortcomings.
