Man is Not Justified by the Works of the Law
Paul stood up to the Jews in front of Peter and told them that if they are going to be Jews who live like Gentiles, why are they compelling the Gentiles to live according to the Jew?
Pretty bold of Paul, but he had to straighten out a crooked path.
We should know in our generation that a man is not justified by the works of the law. That is to say, no man should feel justified because he sacrificed an animal for his sin or that he walk in God’s (10) commandments circumspectly.
These types of works simply do not justify any man. The faith in Jesus, the Messiah from God, is what will justify a man.
His works mean absolutely nothing, be it the sacrificial law or the Royal Law.
