Galatians 2:18-20
Living Bible
18 Rather, we are sinners if we start rebuilding the old systems I have been destroying of trying to be saved by keeping Jewish laws, 19 for it was through reading the Scripture that I came to realize that I could never find God’s favor by trying—and failing—to obey the laws. I came to realize that acceptance with God comes by believing in Christ.[a]
20 I have been crucified with Christ: and I myself no longer live, but Christ lives in me. And the real life I now have within this body is a result of my trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

- Galatians 2:19 that I could never find God’s favor . . . acceptance with God comes by believing in Christ, literally, “for I through the law died to the law, that I might live unto God.”
