They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law."

To those outside the law [I became] as outside the law ([although I] am not outside the law of God, but subject to the law of Christ) in order that I may gain those outside the law.

but knowing that a person is not justified by the works of the law, if not by faith in Jesus Christ, and we have believed in Christ Jesus so that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law, because by the works of the law {no human being will be justified}.

Therefore [is] the law opposed to the promises of God? May it never be! For if a law had been given that was able to give life, certainly righteousness would have been from the law.

The Jews replied to him, "We have a law, and according to the law he ought to die, because he made himself out to be the Son of God!"

But now, apart from the law, the righteousness of God has been revealed, being testified about by the law and the prophets--

Therefore, where [is] boasting? It has been excluded. By what kind of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith.

Therefore, do we nullify the law through faith? May it never be! But we uphold the law.

For the law produces wrath, but where [there] is no law, neither [is there] transgression.

For until the law, sin was in the world, but sin is not charged to one's account [when there] is no law.

Or do you not know, brothers (for I am speaking to those who know the law), that the law is master of a person for as long a time [as] he lives?

For the married woman is bound by law to [her] husband while he lives, but if her husband dies, she is released from the law of the husband.

Thanks [be] to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself with my mind am enslaved to the law of God, but with my flesh [I am enslaved] to the law of sin.
