Galatians 3:21
Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not! For if there had been a law given which could make alive, most certainly righteousness would have been of the law.

Galatians 3:16
Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his offspring. He doesn’t say, “To descendants”, as of many, but as of one, “To your offspring”, which is Christ.
Galatians 3:17
Now I say this: A covenant confirmed beforehand by God in Christ, the law, which came four hundred thirty years after, does not annul, so as to make the promise of no effect.
Galatians 3:18
For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no more of promise; but God has granted it to Abraham by promise.
Galatians 3:19
Then why is there the law? It was added because of transgressions, until the offspring should come to whom the promise has been made. It was ordained through angels by the hand of a mediator.
Galatians 3:20
Now a mediator is not between one, but God is one.
Galatians 3:21
Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not! For if there had been a law given which could make alive, most certainly righteousness would have been of the law.
Galatians 3:22
But the Scripture imprisoned all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.
Galatians 3:23
But before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law, confined for the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
Galatians 3:24
So that the law has become our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
Galatians 3:25
But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.
Romans 4:13
For the promise to Abraham and to his offspring that he would be heir of the world wasn’t through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.
Romans 4:14
For if those who are of the law are heirs, faith is made void, and the promise is made of no effect.
Romans 4:15
For the law produces wrath; for where there is no law, neither is there disobedience.
Romans 4:16
For this cause it is of faith, that it may be according to grace, to the end that the promise may be sure to all the offspring, not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all.

Romans 7:5
For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were through the law worked in our members to bring out fruit to death.
Romans 7:6
But now we have been discharged from the law, having died to that in which we were held; so that we serve in newness of the spirit, and not in oldness of the letter.
Romans 7:7
What shall we say then? Is the law sin? May it never be! However, I wouldn’t have known sin except through the law. For I wouldn’t have known coveting unless the law had said, “You shall not covet.”

I was alive apart from the law once, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died.

The commandment which was for life, this I found to be for death;

for sin, finding occasion through the commandment, deceived me, and through it killed me.
Romans 7:12
Therefore the law indeed is holy, and the commandment holy, righteous, and good.
Romans 7:13
Did then that which is good become death to me? May it never be! But sin, that it might be shown to be sin, was producing death in me through that which is good; that through the commandment sin might become exceedingly sinful.
Romans 7:14
For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am fleshly, sold under sin.
Romans 3:31
Do we then nullify the law through faith? May it never be! No, we establish the law.

But if while we sought to be justified in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, is Christ a servant of sin? Certainly not!
Romans 5:20
The law came in that the trespass might abound; but where sin abounded, grace abounded more exceedingly,
1 Corinthians 15:56
The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
Galatians 2:19
For I through the law died to the law, that I might live to God.

Galatians 3:11
Now that no man is justified by the law before God is evident, for, “The righteous will live by faith.”

won’t service of the Spirit be with much more glory?
2 Corinthians 3:9
For if the service of condemnation has glory, the service of righteousness exceeds much more in glory.
John 6:63
It is the spirit who gives life. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and are life.

Hebrews 7:18
For there is an annulling of a foregoing commandment because of its weakness and uselessness
Hebrews 7:19
(for the law made nothing perfect), and a bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.

Now if perfection was through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people have received the law), what further need was there for another priest to arise after the order of Melchizedek, and not be called after the order of Aaron?

-----
Galatians 2:16
yet knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, even we believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law, because no flesh will be justified by the works of the law.

Because Christ also suffered for sins once, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring you to God, being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the Spirit,

Hebrews 10:1
For the law, having a shadow of the good to come, not the very image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices year by year, which they offer continually, make perfect those who draw near.
Hebrews 10:2
