For his sake, I have suffered the loss of all things and consider them garbage, in order that I may gain Christ, 9 and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith.

It is excluded. By what law? By the law of works? No, but by the law of faith. 28 For we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the law. 29 Or is God the God of Jews only? Is He not also the God of Gentiles? Yes, of Gentiles too. 30 Since there is only one God, who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through the same faith.
