Galatians 2:15-21 - Justified By Faith In Christ

¹⁵ We, who are Jews by birth, and not Gentile sinners, ¹⁶ knowing that a man is not justified by works of law, but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed on Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by faith in Christ, and not by works of law: because, by works of law no flesh shall be justified. ¹⁷ But if, while we seek to be justified in Christ, we ourselves are also found sinners, is Christ, there fore, the minister of sin? It can not be. ¹⁸ For if I build again those things which I have destroyed, I make myself a transgressor. ¹⁹ For, through law, I have died to law, that I might live to God. ²⁰ I have been crucified with Christ, yet I live; no longer I, but Christ lives in me. And the life which I now live in the flesh, I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. ²¹ I do not set aside the grace of God: for if righteousness be through law, then Christ has died in vain.
