First, by forgiveness of sins, and imputation of righteousness, because of our faith in Christ.



Wherefore Moses, together with Paul, doth necessarily drive us to Christ, through whom we are made doers of the law, and are not accounted guilty of any transgression. How so? First, by forgiveness of sins, and imputation of righteousness, because of our faith in Christ. Secondly, by the gift of God and the Holy Ghost, who bringeth forth a new life and motions in us, so that we may also do the law effectually. Martin Luther, Kregel, Galatians 3:10, p. 151. Phiulippe de Champaigne, Moses.


KJV Galatians 3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.
