Charles Spurgeon Commentary Romans 3:4-7

"God forbid: yea, let God be found true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy words, And mightest prevail when thou comest into judgment. But if our righteousness commendeth the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who visiteth with wrath? (I speak after the manner of men.) God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world? But if the truth of God through my lie abounded unto his glory, why am I also still judged as a sinner?" — Romans 3:4-7 (ASV)

God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged. But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man) God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world? For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory: why yet am I also judged as a sinner?

Here is another objection; if it is so that, somehow or other, the sin of man is overruled to magnify the grace of God, why am I then blameworthy? But the Apostle stamps this out as an evil Suggestion and a very moral disease.
