For we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.
Romans 3:28 NIV
The great news of Jesus is that we are declared righteous not by our works or effort, but by trusting in Jesus!
Sometimes this causes people to think that it doesn't matter how you live then and that the law doesn't apply.
But Paul makes clear that no, we still uphold the law. But this is not by our power nor our righteousness. It is by the grace of God that works in us.
Do we, then, nullify the law by this faith? Not at all! Rather, we uphold the law.
Romans 3:31 NIV

Thank you Jesus!
