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

¹⁵ We are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the gentiles; ¹⁶ but knowing that a man is not accepted as righteous by the works of the Law, but by faith in Christ Jesus, we also have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be accepted as righteous by faith in Christ, and not by the works of the Law; for by the works of the Law shall no flesh be accepted as righteous. ¹⁷ But while seeking to be accepted as righteous in Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is Christ therefore a minister of sin? Far be it! ¹⁸ For if I again build up what I pulled down, I make myself a transgressor. ¹⁹ For I through the Law died to the Law, that I might live to God. ²⁰ I have been crucified with Christ, and no longer do I live, but Christ liveth in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live in faith in 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 come through the Law, then did Christ die for nought.
