Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works?

Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, there is no transgression.

For until the law, sin was in the world; but sin is not imputed, where there is no law.

But the law came in between, that the offence might abound: yet where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:

And it shall come to pass, in the place where it was said to them, Ye are not my people, there shall they be called the sons of the living God.

But I have striven, so to preach the gospel, not where Christ had been named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation.
