Galatians 2:17-21

17But if, while seeking to be justified in Christ, we ourselves have also been found 1sinners, is Christ then a servant of sin? 23Far from it!

18For if I rebuild what I have once destroyed, I 4prove myself to be a wrongdoer.

19For through 5the Law I 6died to 7the Law, so that I might live for God.

20I have been 8crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but 9Christ lives in me; and 10the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in 11the Son of God, who 12loved me and 13gave Himself up for me.

21I do not nullify the grace of God, for 14if righteousness comes through 15the Law, then Christ died needlessly.”
