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

¹⁵ We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles, ¹⁶ knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law; for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. ¹⁷ But if, while we seek to be justified in Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of our sin? No, in no wise. ¹⁸ For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a rebel. ¹⁹ For through the law I am dead to the law, that I might live unto God. ²⁰ I am crucified with Christ; nevertheless I live; yet not 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 reject the grace of God, for if righteousness comes by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
