But now, apart from the law, God’s righteousness has been revealed—attested by the Law and the Prophets

For we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.

Likewise, David also speaks of the blessing of the man God credits righteousness to apart from works:

And sin, seizing an opportunity through the commandment, produced in me coveting of every kind. For apart from the law sin is dead.

Once I was alive apart from the law, but when the commandment came, sin sprang to life

For the mind-set of the flesh is death, but the mind-set of the Spirit is life and peace.
