Romans 3:7-8
7 For if the truth of God has increased through my lie to His glory, why am I also still judged as a sinner?
8 And why not say, “Let us do evil that good may come”?—as we are slanderously reported and as some affirm that we say. Their condemnation is just.
Truth of God — the truthfulness of God.
The Jews, opposed to salvation by grace, were accusing Paul of teaching a lie — “Let us do evil …”
Justification by faith is not license to sin. Those who take that license deserve condemnation.
