Boast in God, Proclaim His Gospel

In chapter 3 Paul said that there are none righteous, there are none that do good. And now he writes to a people and says you are full of goodness. It just drives home the total transformation of heart and character and life that takes place when a person comes to believe in Jesus Christ. Those who were unrighteous, no good and worthless, according to chapter 3 now are seen as full of goodness. Goodness pervades their being so that it can be descriptive of their character.
