因為經上怎麼說呢？『亞伯拉罕信上帝，這就算為他的義了。』工錢給作工的人、原不是按恩惠、而是按「該得」算的；而對那沒有作工、只信那稱不虔之人為義的、他的信就算為他的義了。』正如大衛也稱那在行為以外蒙上帝算為義的人為有福；

和工人約定了一天「一日工錢」，就差遣他們進他的葡萄園去。

大約在午後五點，他出去了，看見另有人站着，就對他們說：「你們為甚麼在這裏整天站着，閒懶無事呢？」他們對他說：「因為沒有人雇我們呀。」他就對他們說：「你們、也進葡萄園去。」

律法溜了進來，使過犯增多；但罪在哪裏增多，恩典也就在哪裏格外地滿溢；以致罪在死中怎樣掌了王權，恩典也可以藉着救人之義怎樣掌王權，使人藉着我們的主耶穌基督得永生。

而我們主的恩又格外增多在我身上，使我有在基督耶穌裏的信心和愛心。有一句話是可信可靠，是全然值得悅納的，就是：『基督耶穌到世界上來、是要拯救罪人』；其中的罪魁呢、我就是；然而我蒙了憐恤，正因為耶穌基督要在我這罪魁上證顯他萬分的恆忍，好給將來信靠他而得永生的人做標本。

你們得了救就是靠着恩、憑着信。這又不是出於你們自己，乃是上帝的禮物：不是出於行為，免得有人自誇。因為我們乃是他所造之物，是在基督耶穌裏被創造，為行善事、就是上帝早已豫備好了、使我們行於其中的。

使他恩典之榮耀得稱讚；這恩典是他在那蒙愛者裏面所恩賜我們的。在這蒙愛者裏面、我們藉着他的血得贖放，過犯得赦免，都照上帝恩典之豐富。他曾使這恩典充盈滿溢地流給我們，使我們有全備的智慧和明達、
