Can someone be justified by keeping the law?

Answered in 1 source

No, Scripture teaches that no one can be justified by the law, as all have sinned.

The Bible clearly states that by the deeds of the law, no flesh will be justified in God's sight (Romans 3:20). The law reveals our sin and guilt, and no amount of lawkeeping can change our standing before God. Through the law, we come to know our sinfulness, which drives us to Christ for true righteousness and justification. As stated in Galatians 2:16, a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ.
