Let Your Light Shine

Romans 3:5-6 But if our unrighteousness demonstrates the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unjust who inflicts wrath? (I speak as a man.) 6 Certainly not! For then how will God judge the world?

In Verse 5 Paul Asks another question here. Does God use man's sin to glorify Himself? And if HE does then HE is wrong to inflict wrath on the sinner.

In Verse 6 he answers it. No, God does not use man's sin to glorify Himself. If HE did He would have to abandon all judgment.

If that where the case then a person could say, I sin so GOD can show HIS righteousness. That would be the opposite of what GOD is trying to do.

Jesus Said in Matthew.5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

NOT YOUR BAD WORKS.
