Oops!
My last example should read "salvation," not
"righteousness." I.e.:
"For to everyone who believes, Christ is the end of
the law with respect to righteousness."
vs.
"For Christ is the end of the law, resulting in
righteousness for everyone who believes."
and
"For to everyone who believes, it (i.e., the gospel)
is the power of God with respect to salvation."
vs.
"For it (i.e., the gospel) is the power of God,
resulting in salvation for everyone who believes."
