Yet we know that a person is made right with God by faith in Jesus
Christ, not by obeying the law. And we have believed in Christ Jesus, so that
we might be made right with God because of our faith in Christ, not because we
have obeyed the law. For no one will ever be made right with God by obeying the
law.” "But suppose we seek to be made right with God through faith in
Christ and then we are found guilty because we have abandoned the law. Would
that mean Christ has led us into sin? Absolutely not! Rather, I am a
sinner if I rebuild the old system of law I already tore down"...
"For when I tried to keep the law, it condemned me. So I died to the law—I stopped trying to meet all its requirements—so that I might live for God. "
"For when I tried to keep the law, it condemned me. So I died to the law—I stopped trying to meet all its requirements—so that I might live for God. "
"My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me."
"Do not treat the grace of God as meaningless. For if keeping the law could make us right with God, then there was no need for Christ to die."
I'm not sure how much more clear Jesus needs to be for his believers to believe him.
