Bible Question: What is meant by "a law of faith"? How does it exclude boasting? |
Bible Answer: Hello leonore, The law of faith is that the righteous man will live by faith apart from works. The reason it excludes boasting is that we cannot earn or work for it. We cannot say that we have done something to gain this righteousness on our own merit. It is a gift of God. Steve |
