Romans 3:19-20 & 23-24

Romans 3:19-20 & 23-24 | 19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith 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. 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; 24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: | image tagged in memes,gospel,salvation,sola fide,faith alone,scriptures | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

The Mosaic Law/Teaching is of two:

1. The Letter (2:11-13)
2. Conscience (2:14-16)

Neither one can ever justify because:

a) God requires moral perfection (Matthew 5:20 & James 2:10)
b) Man is rebelliously sinful by nature (Romans 5:12-16 & 8:6-7)
c) And God will not overlook his sins, nor will He count his good works (Isaiah 64:6)

Even to say that we can do just one thing for our salvation would still add a yoke no one can keep (Acts 15:1, 10).

Thus. we're saved only by Faith Alone and nothing else (Ephesians 2:8-9).

And to still insist in adding to His work on the cross (Hebrews 9:12), is to denigrate His sacrifice (Galatians 2:21), and to fall from grace (Galatians 5:4).
