Romans 3:27

Boasting Excluded

²⁶ in the forbearance of God, for the demonstration of his righteousness in the present time, so that he should be just and the one who justifies the [person] by faith in Jesus. ²⁷ Therefore, where [is] boasting? It has been excluded. By what kind of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith. ²⁸ For we consider a person to be justified by faith apart from the works of the law.
