DEEDS AND LAW CANNOT SAVE
Joh 7:19 Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keeps the law?
Why go you about to kill me?
Acts 13:38 Be it known to you therefore, men and brothers, that through this
man is preached to you the forgiveness of sins:
39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which you
could not be justified by the law of Moses.
Rom 3:19 Now we know that what things soever the law said, it said to them
who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world
may become guilty before God.
20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in
his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being
witnessed by the law and the prophets;
22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ to all
and on all them that believe: for there is no difference:
23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
3:27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? No: but
by the law of faith.
28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds
of the law.
29 Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of
the Gentiles also:
30 Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and
uncircumcision through faith.
31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yes, we establish
the law.
4:1 What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the
flesh, has found?
2 For if Abraham were justified by works, he has whereof to glory; but not
before God.
3 For what said the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted to
him for righteousness.
4 Now to him that works is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.
5 But to him that works not, but believes on him that justifies the ungodly,
his faith is counted for righteousness.
6 Even as David also describes the blessedness of the man, to whom God
imputes righteousness without works,
7 Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are
covered.
8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.
4:13 For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to
Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of
faith.
14 For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the
promise made of none effect:
15 Because the law works wrath: for where no law is, there is no
transgression.
16 Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the
promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law,
but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us
all,
17 (As it is written, I have made you a father of many nations,) before him
whom he believed, even God, who vivifies the dead, and calls those things
which be not as though they were.
Gal 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by
the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we
might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law:
for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
2:21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the
law, then Christ is dead in vain.
3:1 O foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you, that you should not obey the
truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ has been evidently set forth,
crucified among you?
2 This only would I learn of you, Received you the Spirit by the works of
the law, or by the hearing of faith?
3 Are you so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are you now made perfect
by the flesh?
4 Have you suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain.
5 He therefore that ministers to you the Spirit, and works miracles among
you, does he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for
righteousness.
3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it
is written, Cursed is every one that continues not in all things which are
written in the book of the law to do them.
11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is
evident: for, The just shall live by faith.
12 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that does them shall live in
them.
13 Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for
us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangs on a tree:
14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus
Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
3:15 Brothers, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man’s
covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man cancels, or adds thereto.
16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He said not, And to
seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to your seed, which is Christ.
17 And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in
Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot
cancel, that it should make the promise of none effect.
18 For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God
gave it to Abraham by promise.
3:19 Why then serves the law? It was added because of transgressions, till
the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by
angels in the hand of a mediator.
20 Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one.
21 Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had
been a law given which could have given life, truly righteousness should
have been by the law.
22 But the scripture has concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith
of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up to the faith
which should afterwards be revealed.
24 Why the law was our schoolmaster to bring us to Christ, that we might be
justified by faith.
25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
26 For you are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
5:4 Christ is become of no effect to you, whoever of you are justified by
the law; you are fallen from grace.
Php 3:3 For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and
rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.
4 Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinks
that he has whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more:
5 Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of
Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee;
6 Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which
is in the law, blameless.
7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.
8 Yes doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the
knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all
things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,
9 And be found in him, not having my own righteousness, which is of the law,
but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of
God by faith:
2 Tim 1:9 Who has saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not
according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which
was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,
Tit 3:4 But after that the kindness and love of God our Savior toward man
appeared,
5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his
mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy
Ghost;
Jas 2:10 For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point,
he is guilty of all.
11 For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if
you commit no adultery, yet if you kill, you are become a transgressor of
the law.
12 So speak you, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of
liberty.
