What does the Bible say about the law and justification?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible states that by the deeds of the law, no flesh will be justified in God's sight (Romans 3:20).

Romans 3:20 makes it clear that by the deeds of the law, no flesh will be justified in God's sight. Instead, the law serves to highlight our sinfulness and the fact that we are all guilty before God. The law cannot save or justify; it exposes our need for a Savior, which is why we must trust in the grace of God through Jesus Christ for our justification. This reality emphasizes that our standing before God is not based on our works, but solely on the redemptive work of Christ.
