Galatians 3:11

Justified By The Law, Or Justified By Faith?

¹⁰ For all who rely on doing the works of the law are under a curse, because it is written, "Cursed is everyone who does not keep on doing everything written in the book of the law." ¹¹ Now it is clear no one is justified before God by the law, because the righteous one will live by faith. ¹² But the law is not based on faith, but the one who does the works of the law will live by them.
