What does the Bible say about being justified by faith?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible states that a person is justified not by the works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ (Galatians 2:16).

According to Galatians 2:16, Paul makes it clear that justification comes through the faith of Jesus Christ, not through the law. The law is not a means to righteousness; rather, it reveals our sinfulness and the need for a Savior. The works of the law cannot justify anyone before God, and this truth is central to the understanding of the gospel of grace, emphasizing that we are declared righteous solely based on our faith in Christ.
