1 Corinthians 1:29

This was all done so that no human being could boast in front of God.

Ephesians 2:9

It was not the result of your own [good] deeds [See Titus 3:5], so that no one could boast [about it].

Now we [all] know that everything the law says applies to those who are under [obligation to obey] that law, [Note: Here "the law" appears to refer to the Old Testament Scriptures generally, since Psalms and Isaiah are quoted. See verses 10-18]. This is so that the mouth of every objector may be stopped [i.e., from making excuses for his sin], and thereby bring the entire world under God's judgment [i.e., both Jews and Gentiles].

Romans 3:27

Where then is the [basis for] boasting [i.e., over being right with God]? There is not any. Is it by [obedience to] a law? Is it by doing certain deeds? Not at all, but by a law of faith.

Romans 4:2

For if Abraham had been made right with God by doing good deeds he would have had something to boast about, but not in God's presence.

Romans 15:17

Therefore, as I have fellowship with Christ Jesus, I am proud of my service to God.

1 Corinthians 1:31

So, as it is written [Jer. 9:23f], "The person who [wants to] boast, let him boast about the Lord."

1 Corinthians 4:7

For who makes you different [from each other]? [i.e., with some being viewed as superior and others inferior]. And what do you have that you did not receive [from God]? But if you received it [from Him], then why do you boast as though you did not [receive it as a gift]?

1 Corinthians 5:6

Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little yeast can leaven the whole batch of dough?
