Living by Faith, New Beginnings Ministries

15 We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles, 16 Even we (knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ) have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law, because by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified. 17 But if while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is Christ therefore the minister of sin? God forbid. 18 For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor. 19 For I through the law am dead to the law, that I may live to God. 20 I am crucified with Christ, and I live no longer, but Christ liveth in me, and the life that I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and delivered up himself for me. 21 I do not make void the grace of God; for if righteousness is by the law, then Christ died in vain.
