Now as to what I am writing to you, behold, before God, I do not lie.

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.

For I through the Law died to the Law, that I might live to God.

I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness come through the Law, then did Christ die for nought.

This only I desire to learn from you: Was it from the works of the Law that ye received the Spirit, or by the preaching of faith?

Doth he then who is supplying to you the Spirit, and working miracles among you, do it by the works of the Law, or by the preaching of faith?

For as many as rely on the works of the Law are under a curse; for it is written, "Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the Law, to do them."

But further, that through the observance of the Law no one is accepted as righteous with God is evident; for "the righteous shall live by faith."

And the Law hath nothing to do with faith; but [its language is], "He that hath done them shall live in them."

Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us; for it is written, "Cursed is every one that is hanged on a beam of wood,"

And what I mean is this; that a covenant that was before ratified by God, the Law, which came four hundred and thirty years after, cannot annul, so as to make void the promise;

for if the inheritance cometh from the Law, it ceaseth to be the consequence of the promise; but to Abraham God gave it by promise.

To what end then was the Law? It was added because of transgressions, till the offspring should come to whom the promise belongeth, having been ordained through angels by the hand of a mediator.

Is then the Law against the promises of God? Far be it! For if a law had been given which was able to give life, righteousness would indeed have been by the Law;

But before faith came, we were kept in ward under the Law, shut up unto the faith which was to be revealed.

So then the Law hath been our schoolmaster, to lead us to Christ, that we might be accepted as righteous through faith;

but when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the Law,

to redeem those under the Law, that we might be adopted as sons.

Tell me, ye that desire to be under the Law, do ye not hear the Law?

yea, I testify again to every one who becometh circumcised, that he is bound to keep the whole Law.

Ye are entirely separated from Christ, who seek to obtain righteousness through the Law; ye have fallen away from grace.

For the whole Law is fulfilled in one commandment, even in this "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself."

But if ye are led by the Spirit, ye are not under the Law.

meekness, temperance; against such things as these there is no law.

Bear ye one anothers burdens, and thus fulfill the law of Christ.

For not even do they who become circumcised themselves keep the Law; but they desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.
