but since we know a man is justified simply by faith in Jesus Christ and not by doing what the Law commands, we ourselves have believed in Christ Jesus so as to get justified by faith in Christ and not by doing what the Law commands ??for by doing what the Law commands no person shall be justified.

For through the Law I died to the Law that I might live for God;

I do not annul God's grace; but if righteousness comes by way of the Law, then indeed Christ's death was useless.

I simply want to ask you one thing: did you receive the Spirit by doing what the Law commands or by believing the gospel message?

When He supplies you with the Spirit and works miracles among you, is it because you do what the Law commands or because you believe the gospel message?

Whereas a curse rests on all who rely upon obedience to the Law; for it is written, Cursed is everyone who does not hold by all that is written in the book of the law, to perform it.

And because no one is justified on the score of the Law before God (plainly, the just shall live by faith, ??12 and the Law is not based on faith: no, he who performs these things shall live by them),

Christ ransomed us from the curse of the Law by becoming accursed for us (for it is written, Cursed is everyone who hangs on a gibbet),

My point is this: the Law which arose four hundred and thirty years later does not repeal a will previously ratified by God, so as to cancel the Promise.

If the Inheritance is due to law, it ceases to be due to promise. Now it was by a promise that God bestowed it on Abraham.

Then what about the Law? Well, it was interpolated for the purpose of producing transgressions till such time as the Offspring arrived to whom the Promise was made; also, it was transmitted by means of angels through the agency of an intermediary

Then the Law is contrary to God's Promises? Never! Had there been any law which had the power of producing life, righteousness would really have been due to law,

Before this faith came, we were confined by the Law and kept in custody, with the prospect of the faith that was to be revealed;

the Law thus held us as wards in discipline, till such time as Christ came, that we might be justified by faith.

but when the time had fully expired, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the Law,

to ransom those who were under the Law, that we might get our sonship.

Tell me, you who are keen to be under the Law, will you not listen to the Law?

Surely it is written in the Law that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave-woman and one by the free-woman;

I insist on this again to everyone who gets circumcised, that he is obliged to carry out the whole of the Law.

You are for justification by the Law? Then you are done with Christ, you have deserted grace,

For the entire Law is summed up in one word, in You must love your neighbour as yourself

If you are under the sway of the Spirit, you are not under the Law.

gentleness, self-control: ??there is no law against those who practise such things.

Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.

Why, even the circumcision party do not observe the Law themselves! They merely want you to get circumcised, so as to boast over your flesh!
