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

¹⁵ For we Jews by race and not sinners of the gentiles, ¹⁶ knowing that a man is not justified by works of the law but by the faith of Jesus Christ, we also have believed in Jesus Christ, that we may be justified by faith and not by works of the law, because by works of the law shall no flesh be justified. ¹⁷ But if seeking to be justified by Christ we are found to be ourselves also sinners, is Christ then a minister of sin? By no means. ¹⁸ For if I build up again what I have destroyed, I make myself a transgressor. ¹⁹ For by a law I have died to the law, that I may live to God. ²⁰ I am crucified with Christ; and I no longer live myself, but Christ lives in me; and the present life which I 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 rightousness is through the law, then Christ died for nothing.
