Can people be good without being religious?

Romans 4:13-25 is a passage from the New Testament of the Bible, written by the Apostle Paul. In this passage, Paul discusses the concept of faith and righteousness in the context of the covenant that God made with Abraham. He emphasizes that Abraham's righteousness came through faith in God's promise, not through adherence to the law. Paul argues that faith is the key to receiving God's grace and righteousness, and it is not dependent on human works or adherence to religious laws. He uses Abraham as an example of someone who believed in God's promises, and his faith was credited to him as righteousness. Paul underscores the universal nature of this principle, asserting that faith is the means by which both Jews and Gentiles can receive God's righteousness. Overall, the passage highlights the centrality of faith in God's promises for justification and righteousness.
