But when God, who set me apart even from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace,

And I went up according to revelation, and placed before them the good news which I proclaim in the nations, but apart to them highly esteemed, lest I run in vain, or ran.

but who know that a man is not made upright by doing what the Law commands, but by faith in Christ Jesus??ven we believed in Christ Jesus, so as to be made upright by faith in Christ and not by doing what the Law commands??or by doing what the Law commands no one can be made upright.

If through our efforts to be made upright through Christ, we have ourselves been proved as much "sinners" as the heathen, does that make Christ encourage sin? By no means.

The Scripture foresaw that God would accept the heathen as upright in consequence of their faith, and preached the good news in advance to Abraham in the words, "All the heathen will be blessed through you."

Now that no man gets righteousness by the law in the eyes of God, is clear; because, The upright will be living by faith.

So the Law has been our attendant on our way to Christ, so that we might be made upright through faith.

You people who propose to be made upright by law have finished with Christ; you have lost your hold upon God's favor.
