Romans 3:28-31

²⁸ We maintain therefore that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.

²⁹ Or is God the God of Jews only? Isn't he the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also,

³⁰ since indeed there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith, and the uncircumcised through faith.

³¹ Do we then nullify the law through faith? May it never be! No, we establish the law.
