Romans 3:5-8

5 But if our unrighteousness serves to show the righteousness of God, what shall we say? That God is unrighteous to inflict 1wrath on us? (2I speak in a human way.)
6 By no means! For then how could 3God judge the world?
7 But if through my lie God's truth abounds to his glory, 4why am I still being condemned as a sinner?
8 And why not 5do evil that good may come?--as some people slanderously charge us with saying. Their condemnation is just.
