'Follows' in the Bible

Therefore, if the uncircumcised person follows the requirements of the law, will not his uncircumcision be credited for circumcision?

What follows? This comparison. Through one man sin entered into the world, and through sin death, and so death passed to all mankind in turn, in that all sinned.

It follows then that just as the result of a single transgression is a condemnation which extends to the whole race, so also the result of a single decree of righteousness is a life-giving acquittal which extends to the whole race.

What follows? Is the Law itself a sinful thing? No, indeed; on the contrary, unless I had been taught by the Law, I should have known nothing of sin as sin. For instance, I should not have known what covetousness is, if the Law had not repeatedly said, "Thou shalt not covet."

For Moses writes about the righteousness that comes from the Law as follows: "The person who obeys these things will find life by them."
