yet knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in him, and not by the works of the law, by which there is no justification.

Is the law then opposite to the promises? by no means. for if there had been a law given, which could have given life, certainly justification should have been by the law.

there is now no distinction of Jew or Greek, of bond or free, of male or female: for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

for it is there written, Abraham had two sons, the one by a bond-maid, the other by a free-woman.

as for me, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why am I yet persecuted? for then there would not be so much objection to the doctrine of the cross.

against such there is no law.
