Galatians 2:16-19

16nevertheless knowing that 1a man is not justified by the works of 2the Law but through faith in Christ Jesus, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, so that we may be justified by 3faith in Christ and not by the works of 4the Law; since 5by the works of 6the Law no 7flesh will be justified.

17But if, while seeking to be justified in Christ, we ourselves have also been found 8sinners, is Christ then a minister of sin? 9May it never be!

18For if I rebuild what I have once destroyed, I 10prove myself to be a transgressor.

19For through 11the Law I 12died to 13the Law, so that I might live to God.
