Galatians 2:17LXX

Orthodox Bible · LXX · Verse 17 of 21

"But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid."
Galatians 2:17

In context

15We Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles,

16Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

17But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid.

18For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.

19For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God.
