Now the things which I write to you, behold, before God, I lie not.

Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we may be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

For I through the law am dead to the law, that I may live to God.

I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness is attainable by the law, then Christ hath died in vain.

This only would I learn from you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he this by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

For as many as are of the works of the law, are under the curse: for it is written, Accursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.

But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.

And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live by them.

Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Accursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

And this I say, that the covenant that was confirmed before by God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of no effect.

For if the inheritance is by the law, it is no more by promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.

What purpose then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.

Is the law then against the promises of God? By no means: for if there had been a law given which could give life, verily righteousness would have been by the law.

But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up to the faith which should afterwards be revealed.

Wherefore the law was our school-master to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

But when the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the law,

To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.

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

For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.

Christ is become of no effect to you, whoever of you are justified by the law; ye have fallen from grace.

For all the law is fulfilled in one word, 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 there is no law.

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

For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.
